Imperial Settlers Roll & Write App Reviews

Title says it all. This is a solid and fun implementation / adaptation.

I rarely rate games anymore but I so surprised and excited about this. The op game was terrible if you didn’t have the wooden pieces from Imperial Settlers to help you track how many resources you had. This app is even easier and very fast playing. One of the best roll and writes!

Really good implementation overall. Wish the cloud save functionality was working so my progress would follow me between iPhone and iPad. When they fix this it will be a 5 star rating.

Sadly, when automatically offered a reroll (Canteen) in Settlement #2, it is not possible to view your play area to be able to better decide how to proceed. Working mechanics is already in place on other screens (tap and hold outside of the dialog box to hide it temporarily). Why in some place but not in another? :^(

What score do I need to get to a new level?

Agree with other reviewers. Maps progressively require more wins to unlock which I like to a certain degree, but it’s too much. The player board is not viewable in certain situations where it would be helpful to see. And the undo button is limited to the main action phase. Aside from this, the game is entertaining.

This app is actually based on the board game of the same name from Portal Games. It’s plays quick and is relatively simple to learn. As you play, you get different buildings to play with so it a always changing (you could also replay the same setup an infinite number of times). The tutorial provides everything you need to know to play. Over time you will learn the strategies to get better scores! Perfect game for those small down times at the doctors office, etc!

As others have said, developers would stand to benefit from actually listening to reviewer feedback and making level unlocks cheaper. It’s a great game but sadly I will never experience more than half the content because I do not have the time to play the same levels over and over again to grind crowns. Some is ok but it is too much. Great game with a pretty good implementation for mobile.

So, Im ranked in the top 5%. I keep playing and playing and playing and..... I can not get to the next level to open new levels. It is a really horrible tease to show more levels but have no way to access. There was no warning up front of what it would take to get more levels. Beyond irritating.
