Fun game

A very fun game, it plays very well (especially considering we don't know the original rules to the game, but the developers' interpretation works very well). I wish they would have a more detailed explanation for their rules but it's easy enough to learn as you play, and is a neat connection with the ancient past.

A very well constructed and beautifully rendered adaptation of an ancient game.
Quick and fun

It's easy to catch on to the rules once you play a bit. Not sure what the symbols in the menu mean but I'm thinking difficulty level? Good stuff.
Fix it!

I loved the older version of this game. The "fixes" broke it. I've downloaded it to an iPhone 7, the icon is there but it won't open. Black screen then kicks me out. Boo! Fix it!
