User reviews
Great game. This is a tough game to virtualize. Lots of rules. But there are still bugs and the game can crush late in the play. Some cards are broken like the eagle from the Highlands, it does not give benefit. An amazing game nonetheless. A must have.
Best digital translation of an awesome game! It almost feels like a real board game.
Forgot to write a review when it came out cause I was to busy playing. Excellent!
Love the board game, and absolutely love the app, only prob is that you can't zoom into the board itself, to find the best squares You can with the zoom into square by square to examine which is a bit of a pain. But all in all 5 out of 5 for game play.
Two years ago i got this application, back when i had all of the expansions for the regular game price. I had all of the expansions. Now it isnt giving me a single one. Not only that but its making me repay for them all. Edit they gave me the sets i requested thatci had previously. Thanks. :)
My favorite board game translated beautifully into a digital version (and without the problem of misunderstanding the rules inherent in the tabletop). Looking forward to adding some of the expansions!
