Horrible AI

Txzaza

Tell me why would any opponent drop the robber on your town after every other opponent has also and you have ZERO resources? The AI is frustratingly lopsided. I've also noticed that after you've been robbed there is a better then 80% chance the next die roll will be whatever number you have blocked. It makes the game incredibly unenjoyable. Also please let us turn off the stupid announcement banner...the AI players say the same thing all game long and their stupid announcements block useful information, like did someone accept your trade? You've made money, now improve the game. .


Catan

To start off with, this is my favorite board game, but the designers of the app really messed it up. It is very frustrating to play. The other players continuously take your resources on almost every turn. The game mostly rolls the other players numbers instead of a fair dice roll. The other players do more moves than they have resources. They always have Knight cards to use against you or monopoly cards when you have a lot of one resource. It is designed really really bad. You have to have a lot of patience to play this game.


This app really blows.

Spent a long weekend with five other buddies and we ended up playing this as the board game much of the time. Returned home and purchased this app and am seriously dissatisfied. The board game is spectacular. I would not recommend this app. It an go and eat a bag of D’s


Dice Randomizer needs work

When the dice gets stuck on a number, it is a high probability that an 8 will roll six to more times in a row. This happens very frequently that a number will get fixated on and roll multiple times in near succession, which is so highly improbable that it become extremely annoying.

I don’t understand why the problems with the dice and cards not being fair can’t be fixed. Very frustrating. I love the game Catan, but there are more aggravating games with this app than enjoyable ones. Often the pattern is robber on me; I remove the robber, and robber on me again until I loose my lead and ultimately the game. The dice rolls are NOT random-no matter which dice preference you choose. How hard is it to make random rolls? No fun to play when rolls favor the AI. When the algorithm does not like a human move, the dice rolls punish the human until the human loses. One bad thing after another. A restart button would help if initial choice was not the best, or you wanted a refresh of the same game and try a different strategy. How about an option to play with your own dice? Like someone else said, why would the AI trade with the AI leader?


Good but,

I have played this game a lot but suddenly it has a glitch that won’t let me play. There is script in the wrong place and it interferes with the buttons. I’m very upset because I have paid for several expansions and now they don’t work.


Problem on iPad mini

It locks up when I try to build roads on the southern part of the island. I have to remember to move the map up before trying it or I either am forced to build a road elsewhere or reboot the game.


Buggy

Fun game, but lots of bugs and would benefit from careful updates.


Unrealistic dice rolls and they gang up on you.

I love the game but when you play the computer obviously gangs up on you once you get a lead. Every single robber or knight goes on your numbers even after you have obliviously lost the lead and another player is going to win.


LoveLoveLove it but…

I love Catan! My family loves Catan! Cities and knights! This is a great way to play when traveling or you don’t want to set up the board. They’re not supporting this app like they are Catan Universe but I think this is a solid platform for them to keep up! I wish online allowed for 6 players
