No pass and play option👎🏻👎🏻

My husband and I play digital board games on flights or in restaurants together and love apps that have pass and play mode. I asked the developers about this awhile ago and they claim that turns move too fast to justify a pass and play mode. Which clearly shows they’ve never played against people who actually like to think through their moves…. I play plenty of other board game apps where turns are played very quickly and we have no problem with the speed of play. The family mode is boring and not like the real game. And I don’t want to play online, I want to play with my husband on the same device when we have time to pass. This gives the feeling of a cash grab to get people to purchase multiple apps to play online. Others have requested a pass and play mode (based on other reviews) and still no update. I love this game and am pretty easy to please app wise. Please please please add a pass and play option.

No Pass & Play

Very disappointed this doesn’t have a pass & play option so I can play locally with friends & family.

Pretty good, but still needs fine tuning

As others have reported, this is a mostly good, not to mention beautiful, digital version of a great board game. There are a few things that make me crazy, though:
The pop-up when playing a treasure card makes it VERY hard, and sometimes impossible, to choose the common treasures you want. The overlay covers them up and you can’t zoom in or out to adjust how they show up on the screen.
Not being able to see how many fish I have at any given time is maddening. Keeping track of your fish is a major strategic need.
Several times my cat has been locked into place when I’ve pushed the ‘rotate’ button. The buttons are just too close together. This is handled much better on the phone app instead of the iPad or tablet app.
Fix these things and I’ll come back with a 5 star review.
