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!

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!

Bought this as a beta (which required the full £10 purchase) with the intention to play with friends online. It looks nifty but was riddled with bugs (it sounds like many still exist) and games just took too long (35 minutes if trying to play quickly), but had potential if online play were made quicker and the kinks ironed out. After all, the Race for the Galaxy app is incredibly well-made and probably my all-time favourite. Unfortunately, it appears none of this feedback was taken onboard and it just makes every game a drawn out, frustrating experience that has even killed any enthusiasm I had for the physical version (which I can't even play due to COVID-19). Anyway, my friends all got refunds while mine was refused, so here I am with a £10 app I'll never use.
