The graphics are so awful that I actually feel a little angry. Time was spent on adding distracting details (like "sand" that periodically races across the screen, or tiles that fly around in the background on the rules screen) instead of designing a simple and appealing interface. Some elements were stretched for iPhone 5 optimization, but others werent, so now none of the spaces line up properly, which is confusing and distracting. (Hard to explain but very clear if youre looking at the board.) Almost all of the text is difficult to read because of poor font/color/style choices.
The menu doesnt seem to consistently store my selection of turning off game sounds.
Im pretty bummed that I spent money on this. I hope they re-skin it and fix the bugs so that I can give it a better rating and enjoy playing. Ive spent many hours playing other iOS strategy games like Stone Age, Puerto Rico, San Juan, Ticket to Ride, Catan, etc., and this is by far the worst. Spend your money elsewhere unless it gets a major makeover!
