Beautiful intuitive fun!

This game is underrated because the mechanics does require the person to read and understand how scoring works and how to. Lock your opponent. Luckily I was able to learn from the easy AI and move up from there. Quite frankly I like this version better... I never have to worry if I’m scoring it right! ??


Love this game!

This game is my relaxation when I am stressed! It is my go to game before going to bed and the game I play the most.


Update was not enough

I have a Love-Hate relationship with Qwirkle. I LOVE the game and play it with friends when we are together, but I HATE having to use this app to get my Qwirkle “fix” because it’s just not satisfying. There are a number of issues which I think need to be resolved. #1. There is no way to communicate with the person you are playing with. That means you are unable to let them know if you need to leave “play” for a while. If you have been playing back and forth at a fast clip, but now have to leave for work, or bed, you just end up leaving them hanging...waiting expectantly for your next move. That’s pitiful. #2. Rarely do you find someone to stick with you an entire game so you must be satisfied with making one or two moves per day. Again, without communication, it’s difficult for me to let someone know that I am going out of town to an area with no cell or internet service for the weekend (or week) so it appears I have just quit. Sometimes they just resign before I get back to town. #3. There is no record of how long it has been since the last move was made and you may sometimes want to purge your screen of all the games that seem to be languishing. Unfortunately, I’m not sure just how long they have left me hanging. I don’t want to resign from a game where I have forgotten a move has been made recently. #4. It would be nice to play individuals in your own time zone. If we had national flags next to our names, that might assist us in understanding a little about the time of day the other person was playing... like maybe they will be going to bed soon. #5. There is no record of your wins and losses and there is no record of how you have performed with particular challengers. I would like to compare stats. It does that for me in Words with Friends, so why not here? #6. Yes, there are technical glitches. Sometimes, it shows “Pending” when in reality, it is pending YOUR TURN! Instead of your name, it says PENDING! That is REALLY frustrating. Anyway, I am hooked on the game, but I find lots of things about the app that make me want scream! At the very least, I want to be able to text/chat with the person I’m playing with so I can show some common courtesy to my challenger.


Rip off

Game is fun with family friends but the ai on expert is total bs. It’s mathematically impossible to play 4 matching shapes/colors every single turn. Again total bs.


Can I win ONE???

I’ve played 10 games on easy mode and lost all of them? The robot gets 3x as many Qwerkles, seems a little unfair. Keep the customers happy and play fair.


Doesn’t show possible moves anymore

I used to love this game and played it often. It suddenly stopped showing the possible moves. I have gone to settings and reset, logged out, looked for updates, closed the app, etc to no avail. Has anyone else noticed this? Is it going to be fixed?


Robot Cheats

Marosol

I love this game. Very addictive. But when you go to harder levels, it feels like the game is less randomized in how the tiles are assigned, and simply harder because the robots is allocated the precise tiles that allows it to more easily achieve more points per turn. That’s cheating. And frustrating. And a huge turnoff for the game.


Unplayable and shoddy.

KeyaL28

The entire game feels shoddy. I almost have to ask if the developer has ever tried playing it. In particular the multiplayer has serious struggles. I had to terminate the app and restart several times to see my game center friends, and on starting a game we got three moves in before it won’t let me take my turn. Meanwhile my friend’s background hasn't drawn in, just a white grid. I expected more from the official app.


Won’t let players complete their moves

KipFis

I love the original game with wood tiles. This app ends the game before all tiles are placed. It is incredibly annoying. The app ends the game as soon as it calculates all possible moves, but does not show what moves the computer or opponent has made or could have made depending on who the winner was.


AWESOME!

Our family loves the board game, and this app is an excellent coach!
