Splendor™: The Board Game App Reviews

Never gets past the title screen!!

Ever since the last update the game is completely unplayable, it wont load past the title screen. Crash city, population: Splendor. BOOOOO.

Unprecdented battery drain

The game itself is fine, though the graphics are a bit too frilly for a mobile game cluttering the interface. My main concern is that this app drained 60% of my battery in 30 minutes! If you play this during your subway ride in the morning starting with a full battery charge youll arrive at work with 50% of your battery gone and your phone burning hot. Good luck playing it on your ride home without it eating the rest of your battery charge to 0!

Great Adaptation

This is a great adaptation of the board game. It plays just like the board game. The challenge section is fun because they change up the rules and win conditions so you are not playing with the same set of rules and win co sit ions over and over. I really like that, because you can get a lot of uses out of the game without getting bored. There are 3 challenge sets with at least 5 variants of the game in each challenge set! There are also rewards for certain win conditions if you meet them, so that is fun too. There is pass and play too. Wouldve 5 stars if they had online play, but this app is still fairly new, only a few months old, so I am sure they will add online play at some point. That would make it 5 stars for me.

No asynchronous multiplayer!

I love Splendor, and this game is well-made, but it is crippled for me, since I play all my games online with friends.

Update works great!

Latest update fixes the problems on iPad 2. Thanks for fixing! Great app!

Kong

Will not complete update on iPhone 4s. Wont even let me delete the app so I can reinstall it.

Great Game, Does Not Allow Multiplayer with Bots

I really enjoy Splendor, and this app maximizes it well for the iPhone. The bots are solid, but there is no way to combine pass-and-play with bots

Love this game

This game is addictive. A few tweaks to the app would be nice like: Explanations of the different AI strategies A detailed rule book Always allowing a player to complete the final round even if they are unable to win. Sometimes this glitches and wont let you complete your final move which could allow a win

Still no online multiplayer.

Yet another update, and still no online multiplayer... unacceptable.

Loved this game-now it crashes

I had and LOVED this game for 2 days...now it crashes & wont open. I have plenty of space on my device & nothing works to fix the issue. Bummer!

Best game, but no online challenge

This is one of the most addicting games. However, there is no online option to play against friends or real people which takes a big hit.

Great game!

I was hesitant to get the physical copy of this game due to the lack of player interaction, but its perfect as a phone game. Turns are quick and you can stop a game partway through anytime and it will save your progress. Great implementation! Looks great and its smooth to play. Keep the updates coming!

Fun but weak AI

Got this on sale. This is a fun game. The only glitch Ive run into after about 6-8 games is that the loading screen doesnt display correctly on my iPad mini 2, which is an extremely minor nit. That said, the AI seems to be weak. In spite if not having played before, I have yet to lose a single game against any number of computer players (2-4).

Holy battery drain!

Really fun game, but each game will cost you like 20% or 30% of your battery, and Im on an iPhone 6 which battery usually lasts forever. Cant understand what could possibly be so battery intensive about this game.

Was fun, now crashes

Got to play one game when I first downloaded the app which was fun, but now the app crashes every time I try to open it.

Waste of money

App just crashes. Unusable.

Fun bit has a few glitches.

Doesnt respect silence switch. Battery drain is quite high... Alarm during play kills sound. Actual gameplay is fun though!

Good when its not crashing.

Solid game. Plays much like the real board game. However its been crashing a lot lately, which could get fixed, but as of right now I cant play it. Would also be great if you could play with someone else without passing the phone around. EDIT game hasnt loaded in days. Keeps crashing. One star until its fixed.

Fun, but a few bugs

A very solid, attractive port of the tabletop game. Makes a good solitaire. A few problems: - AIs are weak overall - You cant play both human and AI opponents, so you and a friend cant play a 4-hand game - A serious glitch somewhere is making this basically very simple app eat power shockingly fast. A 10-minute game on iPhone 5 eats 20%-25% of battery. - No online multiplayer mode. If these get fixed, this will be a sure "must-have" app.

Fun, but intense battery drain!

I like the game, but wow. The battery drain is insane. I can play one game on my 5s (15-20 mins) and drop 20-30% battery.
