### 5/5 — Works great

*2018-12-02, version 2.0*

This app works great as both one player TM player may as well as multi-player mode. My only suggestion would be offering an “undo” option in case you did an incorrect step.

I also enjoy the “😭😭😭” pop up that displays when you’re trying to pay for a card that you don’t have the money or resources for. My friends and I will use this app whenever we play.
