8 of 16I have this on my nook color <br/>At least there I can figure out how to play the computer I only have the option to wait for another player.
This is a great game with a very true-to-life board game feel. Seems like I am actually picking up the pieces and moving them. The multiplayer is great to play with the kids. Definitely worth the $5 for the best board games in the store.
This is one of the worst apps I've seen, at any price. I bought it for Backgammon. The computer just makes random moves, without any particular strategy. It is no challenge whatsoever. I would be better off playing against my 5 year old. For example, if it rolled a 6-1 on it's opening roll, it would move from 13 into it's home board (6) instead of making its bar point would know. I wrote to Astraware about it, but got no response. Don't waste your money.
They made fancy glass pieces and shdows, but forgot about gameplay. The chess pieces are too hard to distiguish and are so close together they almost seem to overlap. I'd rather have smaller pieces that I can see clearly. <br/><br/>Similarly, they put shadows on the chess pieces to look "cool" and "3d" buy the shdiws just make the black pieces look oblong. <br/><br/>Overall I'm very disappointed. I expected better from Astoware.
I offered to QA for them via direct email a few months ago, but never heard back from them. Don't waste your money. As of their last update, I can no longer even open the app.
It get stuck every time i try to play over wifi
I haven't encountered any bugs with this app, but I did find the AI to be way too easy to beat. Yes I had the difficulty at HARD on each game, but it made no difference.
Graphics & sounds are nice. Plus the instructions on each game is very straight forward.
