User reviews
Excellent interface, very easy to play, and very true to the original boardgame it's recreating. It's multiplatform too, so you can play with friends even if they have an iPhone.
I Iove the game and single player is great. However, I may be missing something, but there seems to be no way to receive notifications when it's your turn in an online game. I find this extremely frustrating.
Excellent implementation of my favourite game, but needs some bug fixes. Sometimes when playing with my friend we both get repeatedly kicked out of the entire app. I got to an unplayable state when ended up with many tiles (18 across construction zones) and pressing end turn with new tiles just crashed each time until I abandoned. There are some moves which cannot be completed asynchronously which could be (some shipping I believe). Would love to see these patched - can't wait for ambition!
