Represents game well, but is slow to load on apple tablet.
Jvsksjsbehfkcdbdgsnakb· App Store· Mar 2026I love the game. On iOS it keeps crashing on my iPad mid-game on hard AI opponent mode, haven’t been able to finish a game.
mozowozo· App Store· Mar 2026The board game is so much better and I love the concept but I’d hope to continue playing with friends across the country, but the interface is horrible; You have no idea where you’re up to, sometimes it just stops and you don’t know why, it wants you to do something but you have no idea what it is or which areas stuck in. Eg: am I meant to be tucking a bird? No? Using an egg? No, discarding something? No? Okay, now what? There’s no indication of what needs to happen to progress the game. - The “help” is just fixed and static, it’s not contextual at all. So you try and get help, but it’s just the same information that you already saw, and it’s not very helpful. - Some of the background art, like for the feeder is just always there so it seems like you can always access it except you can’t like you can see the birdfeeder, but then it has to open in this other space which also makes no sense. - The use of space, and size has been poorly considered. Eg: a lot of relevant information is so small I can’t see it, and I barely need glasses, I have a very mild script and still struggled. Across a Mac an iPad and an iPhone, they all shared the same poor design challenges, eg: location, next steps/allowed or required actions are not clear so you end up leaving the game cause it might as well be frozen. In terms of readability and accessibility, that would also be a fail, as the writing is too small, there isn’t enough contrast, the backgrounds are busy and they didn’t appropriately consider use of space. It is a shame, but they are enough of a barrier to make playing it very difficult. Physical game is great, and we have all of the expansions. I hope the digital game improves a lot.
m8itwork· App Store· Mar 2026Have had this game for a few years…on an M1 iPad Air, it now takes at least a minute for the game to boot. Crazy. Gameplay is great though.
stoneairsoft· App Store· Mar 2026I can’t get to play the game at all! It goes to the page where it has to click the tutorial, play game etc. and it doesn’t budge. I keep clicking the tutorial, or game and it doesn’t do a thing. What a waste of money!! I’m trying to play it on my IPad since the screen on my phone is way too small. My IPad is up to date on upgrades, and has enough ram, so I can not understand why it’s not working. I was very much looking to play the game, and it doesn’t work! Please fix!!!
