Good solo but bad multi

Good solo game but a Bluetooth version for multiple players would be really nice. Hard to follow the game passing the device to other players.

Only English ?

Why I can play in English only ? The French language will be for when ? Why is there no language menu ? It will be better !

BUG

Ne fonctionne pas sur iPad Pro.

Good stuff

Just started playing the board game recently. Like the interface and art and music in the app. Not sure how much multiplayer I would play online, but the fact that ios version has zero online capabilities a little if a letdown

Unplayable on Iphone 6+

A little too much money to spend on a app that does not work on a 6+ It "runs" but all the touch controls are unaligned. Which means touching the target to even start a game does not work. Its like the keyed spots are too the left of the actual spots. Was able to get into options and turn down volume by touching about 1/8 inch off to the left of the actual target control. Was unable to start a game due to all the mistargets!

Fun on my iPad, broken on an iPhone 6 plus

Intriguing and well-implemented on my iPad, but as noted by another reviewer, it is unplayable on an iPhone 6 plus.

Cant Get Enough!!

I love this as a board game, and as my 4 yr old nephew loves it, I just got it for him for his birthday. Love love love the app! I will be so excited for the new adventures as they come out (I have completed all of the existing ones!) Thank you so much for making an amazing game available and accessible for my iPhone and iPad.

Great adaptation of the board game

I love the app and have had a lot of fun playing but there are many features missing that would make this one of the best. 1. No online or Bluetooth multiplayer. Its a key feature needed in any board game out there. 2. A player stats tracker is needed. For instance, tracking win/lose records. I have no idea how many games I have played and especially how many I have won. 3. Challenges are short and easy. I finished all of them within hours of launch. They were fun and a great way to play the game but as I said before, it was too short and a majority were too easy. Overall this is a great buy for the price if these features are added.

Better as a one player game! Four stars for now, hopefully five star soon.

I think this game takes the worst part of splendor and almost makes it a strength because the kind of analysis paralysis has no effect on the other human players when youre just playing the AI. I hope they improve the AI soon because although Im fairly confident player I think Im winning more often than I really should be. Id like to to be some difficulty level in addition to choosing the AIs propensity for certain strategies. Theres a few edge cases and gameplay that I suspect will be fixed with a patch soon but theyre fairly rare, so they havent ruined the game for me in any meaningful way. I have an iPhone 6 Plus and I have no problem with the touch controls.

Awesome

Great game and the app does a good job, a little on the expensive side but worth it.

Wont load

Great game but constantly crashes before even loading the menu

Excellent

My husband and I own this game and love it! Despite the $7.99 I took and risk and bought the app. I was not disappointed. Plays exactly like the board game and the graphics are even spot on! Good job Days Of Wonder

Colour blind setting!!!

Great game. Finally, a game that recognizes a significant portion of people are colour deficient. Thank-you!! No multiplayer. Waiting for an update with LAN play. Overall, good job!

Needs multiplayer

Two things to get 5 stars: 1) Pass and play you cant see what card was reserved. 2) This game needs multiplayer so I dont have to play on spendee... Just copy what they do but better.

Improvement

Please support bluetooth gaming and improve EI. Very funny game!

Decent adaptation

Good game and nice visuals but does this game ever kill my battery. Not uncommon for a 10 minute game to use up 20-25% of my battery! Makes the game almost unplayable depending on my day.

Beautiful but crashes

Beautiful game. Only complaint is that it sometimes crashes. Only way to fix is to delete and reinstall which means I lose all my stats and accomplished challenges.

Awesome game...but cant play with people

Great port of a great game...but the point of board games are to the play against other people. I feel like this was promised during initial release...but here we are about a year in and still no online multiplayer. For me, this would be a great hit with multiplayer. Without it, it is like having a beautiful car without wheels.

Weak AI, needs online play, drains battery

Polished UI, but the opponents are far too easy to beat. As another reviewer mentioned, you can consistently beat them with a simple strategy picked up over the course of just a few games. The developers really ought to spend some time improving the AI. Given the lack of online play to make up for the weak AI, theres little lasting value, and I regret shelling out as much $ as I did for it. Ive also noticed that it drains my phones battery fairly quickly.

Many bugs

A few of the challenges have errors and do not function as described. Multiple issues with connecting to cloud for challenges ranking. Submitted bug to developers but no response.
