Sometimes won’t even start other time crashes in the middle of the game. ### 1/5 — Error straightaway *2025-08-26* The local game with AI doesn't work, straightaway shows error ### 1/5 — Constant crashes *2025-08-26* App crashes, losing the game in progress. Seems to be tied to not checking for valid user input or game state. Examples: place a tile, but select no tile and hit OK = crash. Spore, but wind scatters spore off map = crash. ### 2/5 — Crashes *2025-09-01* Other player tried to take a card when I didn’t have one? Crashed. It’s a great board game but this is lacking QA before it was listed. ### 3/5 — Good game, but some bugs *2026-08-08* The game is a good recreation of the board game. But some bugs and improvements would make it better. Can’t use bonus move mushroom, and seeing what the AI turns are would improve the game. ### 3/5 — Beta *2026-06-14* It’s a decently good game, but the app crashes with some usability issues. ### 3/5 — Good Board Game Glitchy App *2026-06-11* The app shuts down if I try to play against more than one AI. When I try to play a mushroom it is difficult to select spores to use. Haven’t gotten farther than that. Since I can’t play a mushroom I’m stuck. Love the board game though. Hopefully they fix the app…. ### 3/5 — Looks Great - Crashes *2026-01-02* Looks great - crashes in single player mode against one AI opponent. iPad 10 with up to date software ### 3/5 — Constant crashes *2025-09-06* App crashes, losing the game in progress. Seems to be tied to not checking for valid user input or game state. Examples: place a tile, but select no tile and hit OK = crash. Spore, but wind scatters spore off map = crash. EDIT: They seem to be rapidly working out the bugs. ### 3/5 — Great app in the works *2025-08-28* I own the actual game (backed on kickstarter) but have yet to have a chance to play with friends. I was hoping to use this to learn and teach my board game group. The tutorial of this games needs some more explanation. (Like explaining what the symbols on the mushroom cards actually do), explaining what you need to fruit mushrooms, etc etc ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this game in the real, but the digital rocks *2025-09-28* If you haven’t seen it in the real, highly recommend also… but this app does a grand job of sharing the feel of the work. ### 5/5 — This is great! *2025-09-02* So, they just launched this and are working the bugs out of it (pun intended), but - I LOVE THIS GAME. The app makes it so nice to play through games against AI. I haven’t tried the online gameplay yet. Very much appreciate the effort that went into designing this app! ### 5/5 — Great games and bugs fixed *2025-08-29* Wonderful version of a great board game now they bugs are fixed ### 5/5 — Cute game *2025-08-26* Super cute game but has some issues on this first edition. My game crashes at the end of first turn if I play AI game. Just doesn't work. Some recommendations: 1. Can't see what's written on the mushroom cards. Would be nice to zoom in on the cards. 2. Pls add an interactive tutorial. :) ### 4/5 — Excellent first update, but some flaws *2025-08-29* Problems: -AI is too easy, they play smart, but don’t choose high scoring cards, so always loose -Random error kicked me from 1v1 online play, and could not rejoin with code -Sometimes not able to use decay action of moving another’s mushroom -Sometimes not able to use spores from certain tiles with no clear reason. -Would be great to see an animation showing which card opponents pick up from the market - otherwise can only be seen if watching the market. Would love to see the new expansion packs with trees available at some point. A small fee would be understandable. ### 4/5 — Big bugs debugged *2025-08-27* OK - updating my previous review, this is now working and I played a full game. It's a slick presentation of a nice game. I might upgrade further when I have experimented more - currently I can't always see what the AI is doing or where mushrooms are when a mother is sat on top, but there may be ways to do that and I just have not discovered them yet. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
