Incredibly Addictive Adaptation of the Classic Boardgame

Castles of Burgundy is an all-time great boardgame, and this adaptation does it justice. Great asynchronous play - I’m currently playing games with folks from all over the place and it’s really smooth. If you’re used to the boardgame layout, it may take you a game or two to get your bearings, but once you do you’ll appreciate how the developers laid things out to work surprisingly well on a phone-sized screen.Do yourself a favor though and change the animation speed to fast, and turn-off replay in the games list if you want to play your turn as quickly as possible.P.S. It had some bad bugs when it first came out, but most of them are fixed now - you can buy with confidence.

Forced forfeit bug!

Edit: bug persists throughout several of the past few updates. Why is this bug so hard to fix? I estimate that I’ve lost 30-40 games because of this bug, and my ranking has suffered greatly through no fault of my own. I currently have a game live that has been sitting in my games list for several months as neither my opponent nor I have taken action on it. Developers please fix the bug that causes the game to get hung after one of my opponents is timed out and forced forfeit by my other opponent. At this point it’s my turn but going into the game, it never progresses to my turn, stays on “waiting for opponent”. This results in my turn also timing out and my opponent also forcing me to forfeit. Very frustrating in ranked games, had this happen 4-5 times in the past couple months, submitted several bug reports from the game, but it’s still not fixed, nor have I gotten any response. 🧐

One of my favorite board games

Great implementation of this game! Runs smooth on my iPad Pro 12.9" (2nd gen). Wouldn't run on an iPad 4. Also runs on iPad Air 2 fine as well. Make sure you have a high-end iPad and enjoy this sweet game!Devs, please make the "grunts/speech" a toggle item so we can disable. The advisors or whatever they are that pop up at the bottom right are OK, animation-wise, but the sound they make start grating pretty quickly.

Bugs, odd art, poor AI for a great strategy game.

+ Great strategy game based off of board game+ Added character art looks good as does the map+ great potentialHuge, game breaking bugs. - I close my iPad lid and the game I’ve been playing for the last 30 minutes is gone.- I purchased the second mine tile in the game at some point I undo. That tile is no longer in the game. AI doesn’t have it, I don’t have it. Game breaker.- I’ve watched as the AI take two turns in a row twice now. Took a boat, placed boat, rerolled and then went again! Come on! I’ve never seen bugs this bad. - the menu ui/ux is terrible. I found that you can speed up gameplay after hours of play. How do I change my player color? They should start over by copying the ui of an app that works or hire a ux designer so everything is intuitive. - Where does the steam punk iris diaphragm come in? This is a run away design team, where is the art director or project manager here? The 3D buildings were a cool idea but the rest of the ui is so weird and with lots of wasted space. - after a knowledge tile is built it looks weird. What is that supposed to be exactly and why not just keep the art so I can reference it there? In an effort to “declutter” you added an additional space for each knowledge tile...

Fantastic adaptation of a great board game

I put off buying this game due to the bad reviews, but I finally took the plunge because the game itself is great. 10 games or so in, no bugs, no crashes, decent-ish AI. I’m thinking the dev team has fixed any previous issues and likely having a newer iPad with a lot of memory helps too. The graphics look sharp and the interface is intuitive after a few plays (there are a lot of actions you can take.)I haven’t played online yet, so I can’t speak to that.

Super fun game

It is so much fun to play that it doesn’t really matter whether I win or lose.One tip: If the game freezes, as it still sometimes does, access the menu via the button in the right top corner and select ypur current game in the lists of active games. The game will reload and open right before your last turn during which it froze.Update March 13: All of a sudden, I can’t play anymore. “network error”, “client needs to be updated for online game” - but I only play against the AI. My network is fine. Play runs until after I placed the first card. Then the error message pops up. I checked for an update, there actually was one, but after the update still the same.

Buggy but fun

A straightforward adaption of the board game. I like that I don’t have to pick up a bunch of tiny cardboard tiles anymore and it is now digitized. However, online play is frustrating. It’s a bit clunky and glitchy at times. The game makes me “time out” well before my 24 hour turn is over sometimes (I don’t understand why/when at all). The AI isn’t good enough to challenge me, so I really rely on good pvp interaction for these games. There are virtually no “instant” games because there aren’t enough people playing at any given time. Only 24-hour turn length games.

Fix the game time out feature for multiplayer online hey synchronous play

I can never finish the game because it’s always timed out I only get to make one or two or three moves a day and all the games are timing out a before I get a chance to finish one please provide more time to play the game requires many moves if a player makes one move a day how many moves does it take to finish the game it’s 50 moves do the math A similar product terra mystica on the same multiplayer platform doesn’t time out otherwise the game plays like a dream Excellent

Animations way too slow, let us disable them please

This is a great game, I don’t want to diminish that.However in a two human player (2 human + 1 AI) game the animations waste 15 minutes of total time for a single game! That’s being generous as I am undercounting and rounding to the nearest 5 minutes. That’s with the game speed set to the highest and also on an iPhone 13 pro and iPhone 14 pro max (not old or slow devices).From the first player to the last player is more than 10 seconds waiting for the animations and watching the replay. From the last player back to the first player is well over 30 seconds of animations of switching maps, showing die rolls, and watching replays. Sadly, 40 seconds of watching animations multiplied by the 25 turns there are in the game really add up!Amazing game but with human players it just takes too long. We haven’t encountered any defects or any glitches that caused us to lose any games either. The problem is it’s not much faster than playing the physical board game.All we are asking for is a way to disable animations and replays. If I really need to know what the other players did I can just look at their board.

Disappointed

I absolutely LOVE this game but I have a few major complaints. This is the absolute MOST I have ever paid for an online app game and I’m super dissatisfied. One is they only have a total of 3 different maps to choose from and you only can actually choose from 2 in which one is the starter one..,. which I can see getting boring . Plus the app locks up ALLLLL the time in the mid to mid end of the game and the only way is to close out the app and then you lose the game . It’s SOOOO frustrating and I feel like I just wasted 8.99. The bummer is - I want to buy more games from this developer .. ie bonanza and I just can’t bring myself to give them more money .
