Excellent adaptation! Great UI, dice rolling animations and sfx. Tutorial is well done although some concepts become more clear after some games. AI is superb (Keldon of course) so don't expect to take on Hard right from the start: it'll crush you if not familiar with the game. Online is active and you can easily find players (async & live). Notifications work on mobile so you won't lose track of your games. I have big hopes for Ambition and Promo Pack once TGG has finished with Dominion

Great app. Very clean and faithful copy of the board game. It is easy to use and let's you get into the game quickly. I haven't tried the online multiplayer yet, but hope to convince some friends to purchase the app. I only wish the pass and play was more obvious (it's a easy to miss tab above the easy/medium/hard selection when adding a new player). App tried on Sony Xperia XZ1 and Samsung Galaxy Tab A.

Great implementation - worthy of five stars, but with some reservations. The touch accuracy seems a bit off on my Pixel4XL - meaning I'm missing the die I need to move often enough to be a bit annoying. Not sure if many other android devices have the 'swipe from edge' feature - but it means you'll accidentally exit the app or pull up the bottom drawer often. This can be turned off but still. A bit frustrating. Also - (and this is selfish) this is a great game, but it REALLY needs the expansion to come alive in terms of choice and variety. Looking forward to the release!

Consistantly crashes when a tile is played which removes a die to exchange with another die but no progress is lost. That's the only time it crashes but it happens every time. Also, sometimes it doesn't correctly notify that it's your turn in online games so you have to visit each one and check. No chat or block functions available which would be nice. Still, an excellent game I love to play for a few hours each week.

Excellent implementation of my favourite game, but needs some bug fixes. Sometimes when playing with my friend we both get repeatedly kicked out of the entire app. I got to an unplayable state when ended up with many tiles (18 across construction zones) and pressing end turn with new tiles just crashed each time until I abandoned. There are some moves which cannot be completed asynchronously which could be (some shipping I believe). Would love to see these patched - can't wait for ambition!

This is a lighter game than its sibling Race for the Galaxy (which also has a great app), so for me it works better as a phone game to play casually. This has Keldon AI, so the computer opponents are pretty good. The implementation is slick and smooth. The only things I'd like see is a few more "undo" options, and a nice extra would be all the detailed win records the Race app has to look over past games and see super detailed progress.
