I recommend this app if you have the actual board game
★★☆☆☆Perfect...until it’s not
At first I didn’t believe the bad reviews. Worked perfectly for about 2-3 days, 1v1 vs the AI (maybe 30 or so games). Then this morning it just stopped working. I can’t get beyond the AI’s first turn, the game freezes (or rather the AI freezes, the graphics and screen remain fluid). Disappointed because up ‘til then, this was my new favorite board game app. 😢
★★☆☆☆Can’t recommend until fixed
When you are logged in to an Asmodee account and playing a local game the turn choices do not show up on the right side, so the game is unplayable. If you logout of your Asmodee account and play a local game the game works as expected. I haven’t tried an online game so I can’t say if it has the same issue or not.
★★☆☆☆Can’t play
I was so excited to see this game in an app because it’s one of my favorites it let me play the first two or three games and then all it does is glitch and I haven’t been able to play since. The game is beautiful I love the animation but you can’t play
★★☆☆☆Stinks
This game stinks. You start with the 3 same cards every game. The online play is non existent, I’ve tried to create several rooms for friends and none have been able to find the created room. The game also seems rigged against you. After the first couple of rounds the A.I. players satisfy their tasks every round after that which isn’t very realistic.
This a really a poor execution of my favorite tabletop game.
