Horrible UI… Crashes

Tried on both iOS 5.1.1 and 7.1.2. App crashes when I go into settings and try to change the board size. The board is ugly (looks like an ordinary checkerboard in drab color) and the pieces look ugly as rocks and fat as chips. On top of that you need to drag the pieces to the new spot rather than tap like on most board games on a touchscreen device. It's just unnatural to play. Seeing nothing but good reviews by others made me thought that I could overlook the aesthetics and look forward to good gameplay. However, the fact that I cannot change the board size because of constant crashes is a complete disappointment. Wasted $0.99!

Easy to learn, difficult to master!

This is an ancient Hawaiian checkers game. I just learned how to play while visiting the Polynesian Culture Center in Oahu. It takes 30 seconds to learn the rules. Simple and fun, and the app works great, with several options for customizing gameplay. Also works in 2 player mode over wifi and through Game Center. Highly recommended!
