Wow! -- 35-year gamer

I came in guns blazing with military options, and it's hilarious that you need a paean or musical or warrior poets or ownership-swapping rogues to meddle in culture production. It took about 5 games to win the first time, but it's a real brain-expander to get into it! I just wonder if losing to harder opponents pays more... I would take a dive every time for more parting gifts if that's the case. My friend Cheesy George would probably exploit it. Yeah, Cheesy George. On another topic - I cannot STAND multiplayer usually. They do it so right in this game.
A ton of fun!

I’m a board and card gamer and was a bit skeptical when I stumbled on this app. 3 days and 8 hours later, I’m no longer skeptical! This game is a ton of fun! It’s by no means easy and I’ve not unlocked half of it yet. Strategic, deep, full of interesting card combos, with lots of built in replayability. It’s a lot like combining a deep, civ building euro with a quick, engine building card game. Very enjoyable!
Good gravy this game is amazeballs!

What a treat it was to discover this gem of a game. (Thanks TouchArcade!) I have lost 75% more games than I have won but let me tell you, when you pull off a win (rare in my experience) it feels great! I have already unlocked all the cards but boy howdy was it a challenge! My only gripe (purely cosmetic) is that I was not blown away by the artwork, it’s good but I wish each card had a unique design. Regardless though, the gameplay, design and FUN factor makes this game a MUST HAVE for CCG strategy game enthusiast. Kudos to the Dev for creating such a fun and affordable game. More please!!!!
Deep and addictive

This might just be the perfect strategy card game for a tablet. It has simple, elegant and deep mechanics but quick play time, so you can knock a few rounds out pretty much whenever you feel like it. My only criticism is that I’ve unlocked all the cards after a week of non-stop play, because I couldn’t put it down. More, please!
Great card game.

I only wish I could play a printed version of this game for board game nights. The interactions between cards are fantastic and make for unique strategic plays. I enjoy how you play with open knowledge of each other’s cards (or at least those available). It gives an extra step of planning as you try to predict your opponent. It’s quick and simply fun to play. Any board game hobbyist would be happy with this game.
Very good game for Eurogame fans

This game brings the strategic depth of a great euro board game to a mobile game you can play in 10 minutes, with tons of replayability. Love it.
Great game please fix abuse
Pablohere
While this is one of my favorite games, it suffers from some form of abuse where an opponent can have unlimited time to move. (Yes, unlimited). Please look into players like “Shmeggy” who stall games eternally once they feel like they have lost a match and address this time abuse bug to make his into the perfect game.
Really top notch

Plays well on iPhone, perfectly dialed in to last 10-15 minutes per game, and provides deep strategy and tactics. The balance seems excellent - I have beaten AI and human players with various strategies including mass military, economic dominance, mass culture with defensive cards, and multifaceted synergy decks. It all just depends what comes up to draft, and what decisions your opponent makes. Just feels like everything is viable but situational which is as good as it gets. Also, perfect premium model with free unlocks to ramp up complexity. THANK YOU DEVS AND PLEASE KEEP DEVELOPING THIS GAME. IT IS A BLAST AND HAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL MOVING FORWARD
