Catan Classic App Reviews

Keeps crashing mid game. Every single time since last OS update.

Screw doesn’t scale properly on iPhone 14 Plus. When playing Cities and Knights the barbarian ship is blocked. Also, no option to randomize which player starts first.

Very stable and always people online to play honesty anytime in the day or night.

I would like it if there were options instead of just whatever random game they put you in. I think it would be very helpful.

A great way to learn how to beat your friends IRL

I really enjoy this version of the game but recent update has caused it to constantly crash and force me to re login every time.

I love Catan and this game is a good time. It can get frustrating because it’s not a free-for-all gameplay, it’s a you-versus-the-world gameplay. It’s very satisfying when you win, but also frustrating when the player after you plays a knight card, steals a resource, then rolls a 7, steals another resource, and then the next player does the same until you have no more resources to steal, in which case they roll the number that the robber is on.

Came here to say the A.I. is obviously rigged against you; looks like I’m not the only one.

I’ve loved this app, but whenever I roll a 7, I move the robber and it doesn’t give me any options of actions. I have to restart the app, and then it goes to the turn before mine.

I don’t write reviews for apps, but this one is a breath of fresh air. This is a faithful copy of the original game (and some extensions). There are no ads, which is great. All the people that rate this game low because it’s “unfair” to them or “too hard” need to get better at the game. You’re not playing your wife and kids; these bots are designed to try and beat you. Also, what would the app designers have to gain by making the dice rolls anything but random?

As a beginner of Catan, this app does not teach the game very well and it very quickly gets overwhelming.

I liked the bored game a lot and when I heard I could play it on my phone, instantly I bought it. It’s pretty cool and the game play, just nobody likes to trade a lot (like what would happen in real life lol) but other than that I love it! 👌🏾🥴

Please update for newer phone so they fit better, trying to play cities and knights but can’t see the things on the edge of my screen.

The amount of 7s and statistical improbabilities around what numbers are rolled is super annoying.

If you like the board game you will love this app just like I do. It has helped me become better at the board game.

Multiplayer is frustrating because people just doze off or forget to end their turn. There needs to be more reminders and perhaps better options to remove an idle player.

I think this app is very good. I have used it for years! Thank you

Gets the basic rules correct, but AI does dumb things a player never would

Game is cool but things get blocked with the notch on the iPhone 13 max.

Super game for Catan lovers that just want a game . Maybe not for experienced players . Love it !

I love this app. I get everyone’s views on the AIs going after u with the robber but once you know this, you can plan for it.

I have over 400 hours of play time. The “flawed AI” I haven’t noticed. It’s very strategic especially with Greater Catan (I have all the available expansions). I have a 90% win rate against AI with all four players. Great destresser.

Need to add more campaign levels. Other than that, this is a fantastic platform.

I wish this app wouldn’t crash so much! I just got the iPhone 13 pro and it has had more problems with my newer technology than ever (I had an iPhone 8). This game is great I just wish it was seamless.

I just learned the game this month so was happy for the game app I could play. At first one certain player seemed to win but it has Changed some. I do enjoy except When my numbers don’t get rolled of course.

I love this game! Played it a million times, but the boards are getting old after a few years. Please bring in new options so I can keep playing!!

If you love Catan the board game, get this app!

I’d have given it 5 stars cos I love the game so much but every time I get into a new game it crashes which is a shame. Hopefully this can get fixed asap?

Good game but could be improved. Need time limits for players turns. Sometimes you have to leave the game because someone won’t play forever.

Nobody wants to be the only one at game night who doesn’t know the game. This is a fantastic way to teach yourself how to play Catan.

I mean, what else can I say, it’s a fully functional Catan app

The computer plays together to beat you, not to win. Play it enough and you’ll see. The set up and interface is good, but the cheating is absolutely obnoxious and unnecessary.

I downloaded this just so I could practice because I lost my first game and now I play every day and I practice and win often now

Lol the app developers clearly aren’t paying attention to this one, but the gameplay is still fun. I’ve lost several games because the app glitches and doesn’t allow me to purchase or collect resources when I can.

Please fix the markup bug for iPhone 12 Pro. Depending on the screen rotation, either the main button or Barbarians indicator hides behind the speaker

The AI buy like every development card and beat you with 5 victory points all the time

I love playing Catan, but when I play against the computer (even on easy), I lose because of them constantly buying development cards. I don’t trade with them either. They trade with themselves (2 computer players) and win.

Please make the necessary maintenance and update the game to the latest version (after adding extensions) where no problems will occur as we play

Some minor glitches, but overall fun to play and addictive

Feel like someone “lags” out or gets booted. Sometimes dice just don’t roll…

Great way to play the game I love, and to learn different game modes. The AI is beyond frustrating with the trades and teaming up. 5 stars but the AI makes it a 4.

Downloaded this app thinking it was solitaire; it is not. Still a fun game though, actually more fun than solitaire. #NoWheatCantCompete #NoBrickNoDick

Love this game 🙌🏼 definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone who loves strategy/trading games.

Overall the app is fine. Wish the online server allowed for quicker gameplay. Sometimes online play can be glitchy

The app itself is a lovely rendition of the board game and would be fantastic not for the F-ing blatant, routine cheating by the dice and AI. That gets extremely frustrating.
