Reviews
Unplayable
Sophiaew1997
I loved the boardGame and I was so excited to find this app. However it is too buggy to finish a game. It took my friend and I an hour to figure out how to friend each other and start a game. Afterwards, we tried two games and both times the ai crashed. Would have liked it to at least be playable considering I paid money...
Add expansions!!
Crazeysocks
We love this game, the artwork, and the fact that is cross platform compatible!! I just wish they’d add the expansions!
Relaxing, beautiful challenge
WRS15743
What a beautiful game. I only play solo, so I can’t speak to online issues. But this app is flawless in solo play. Others have mentioned the tutorial being minimal, but I thought it sufficed and was well done. It gives you what you need to get started. Rules and strategy are easily available online if you need them, but this game is meant to be an exploration, it’s about the journey. The pace is relaxing, but there is still a strategy and challenge to it. It’s not overly hard nor too easy. It’s simply a relaxing, fun game. I’m glad that when you start a new solo game, you can click in settings for that game and set it to fast AI. That’s great for when you don’t have as much time. But the regular speed is perfect for a relaxing game. Thank you for a good game at a good price with no ads or IAP. It’s also good on battery life. I’m very happy to own this game!
Incredible but incomplete
Karl Schook
The game is fun, gorgeous, and captivating, but the achievements don’t work! I’ve completed the the preliminary achievements but they don’t update as completed. Also, the touch screen is very sensitive with no way to modify it. Still, a fun and beautiful experience.
Great game but error with Chubei
Traveler009
I love this game and it’s beautifully made. One major bug that hasn’t been fixed in the half year I’ve owned it is when you play the character Chubei. Chubei gains an extra visit each time he eats a meal at an inn. If you receive the mountain panorama, for example, but have already completed it - you will be given a choice of a different panorama. However, after you choose you can’t proceed with the game and are frozen. Please correct this! Second, certain characters you know they will skip coins etc. So easy to defeat them because you know they will skip. If AI were improved to make them still get coins when low that might make it more interesting because pretty easy to win. Otherwise love it so 4 stars. Please fix Chubei bug!
Please add the expansion
beardedluk
This is one of my favorite games but would love if the would add the crossroads expansion with all characters & game extras!
Full of glitches
Squish do
I would give this game a lower star if I could. It deserves negative stars. If I buy a game, I want the game to actually work. It does not work more than half the time. THe developer also never bothered to fix the game. Please do yourself a favor and don’t buy it. Don’t let the devs make any more money off of this game that they will not fix.
refund

Really good but my phone is small, so I would like to get it on another device. Could I get a refund if it is possible?
Does not work well
broeneyedgirl2015
My husband and I both downloaded this game because we have the board game and love it. It seems like they focused too much on the aesthetics and not enough on game function. I got a phone call in the middle of our first game and it kicked everyone off and deleted the game. Every time you close the app it logs you out. I haven't been able to log in for hours because the server isn't responding. There is a tutorial but it doesn't really explain how points are scored, so if you hadn't played the board game it would be confusing. I will update my review if these issues get resolved but so far I am very disappointed. One thing they did right is the visuals. It is illustrated beautifully and is one of the prettiest games I've seen on IOS.
