This is yet another so so mobile version of a wonderful card game. It does not work properly on iPhone X and it has not been updated for newer iPad pros. When the app works it is a lot of fun but the app gets in the way. On the iPhone it loses track of ink and has scoring glitches. On the iPad it occasionally freezes. I really want to love this app and I hope it gets the updates it deserves.
★★★★☆Good game, okay app
I like the game, but the app needs to be developed a little more. Every time a game gets up to 5 active timeless classics, the AI opponent freezes and the app crashes. At that point, there’s nothing to do but abandon the game and start a new one, because the bug will keep kicking you off the app. Hopefully they’ll fix this in an update soon. It would also be nice to be able to purchase some of the fan fiction variants.
★★★★★Great multiplayer game for couples
There aren’t enough turn taking games like this made in such great quality. My wife and I love playing this game and we even bought the real life version. The tutorial is good but could be a little better. You need to read the rules to really understand what the abilities do. The online play is very solid but I’d prefer to stay in the game and play with my letters while waiting for my turn.
★★★☆☆Fun game, NEEDS zoom
I bought this after playing the board game, which is great.
The app is tiny! My vision is normal, but this is painful and hampers the fun. Please remove some of the dead space on the board to enlarge cards, and enable pinch to zoom.
★★★★☆Cheating AI
How does AI player (hard) score .06 cents on the very first turn when a player can only score 5 max. Odd. I feel cheated.
