Functionality Bad

I recently downloaded this app about a week or two prior to this review. I had created an account with Renegade/Dire Wolf but when the terms and conditions appear on the screen within the app, there is no way to agree/disagree and no way to close the pop up without closing the app and starting from the beginning. This is causing me to be unable to play any multiplayer mode.

Great game BUT

The user interface, and especially the tutorial, need serious upgrades.

As good or better than the physical

Great version of the original. I just wish you could toggle off the animations. also would be great to have one level more difficult AI, but all in all it’s great

Enjoy this game

I have really enjoyed this game and rated five stars, but I’ve only played it solo against the app. But I like it so much that I’m going to try to get the physical copy again even though I’ve traded away once before.

Beautiful

A great translation. The audio, the visuals, the intuitive interface….I wish all tabletop games were done this well in digital.
