It's a good digital version of a boardgame that I also own. The campaign was good and challenging, but it's rather short. I enjoy games where I can play against the AI, but this one feels repetitive once the campaign is done. Since your ability to choose what you do is so limited each turn, it often feels like you have no control over any strategy; you can only really play what's available, and the only thing that makes one player different from another are the cards you draw, which are random.
Update: loading times have improved. Still, 30-40 seconds to connect is a bit long especially when you tab out of the game and have to reload again when you go back. The adaptation is very well done but too much luck involved to even bother to plan an efficient strategy. Pity because the game plays well and it's fun, but only for a few weeks. Buy if you like worker placement with "take that" mechanics, RNGods, leader's getaway and Viking theme (even if it's just graphical)
A very strong digital adaption of a great boardgame. It's my favorite worker placement game on digital. The animations help bring the game to life. I've played about 20 games without a noticable bug. The game loses a star for its multiplayer experience. The asynchronous times are not adjustable and just too long. This coupled with players who have abandoned their games makes for very slow game progression. I also don't see a way to friend other players if I don't know their email or friend code.
It's a pretty good implementation but it currently is quite slow to load a multiplayer game when switching between apps. The game could also really use a play log to see what your opponents did if left running, and make the count of how many offerings are remaining a bit more obvious. Otherwise the UI is pretty good. Would love an expansion but that isn't reflected in the rating.
