HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (5.1 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ I've been playing this game for the last 5+ years regularly on an iPhone mini. I think it has its flaws (completely resetting if you look at a phone notification, I've had friends unable to create new accounts, game…
★★★★★ I really enjoyed it, until last week when it was updated and now I only have the basic game and am prompted to pay and additional fee for each expansion.
★★★★★ After latest update in the last 3 games of 3 player online play, the game first kicks a player out and an automated player takes over, then forces a forfeit for the next player, leaving 1 player standing.
Slow, laggy, battery16%

44 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The Ai use to be super quick, now it is so painful, even on the highest speed. So sad to see this game go but it is now unplayable. So many Apple apps sucking now, I'm done spending money on this kind of crap.
★★★★★ Of course I tried loading it on my iPad mini and the lag is unplayable.
★★★★★ The new version is also horribly slow compared to the previous app.
Bugs, things not working13%

36 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Which leads me to: I'm not sure why the developer has changed the user interface on the game instead of fixing those core bugs.
★★★★★ Not to mention, one of the cards asks to return an assigned agent and reassigned it but it doesn't let me pick the agent; i tried dragging the meepo back and clicking on different meepo but it doesn't work.
★★★★★ Practically impossible to drag your worker/agent onto the game board. Bummer because it used to be a pretty fun game.
Lost data, sync, backup12%

★★★★★ If I don't complete my move in less than 10 seconds I almost always get the message “Network Connection Lost”
★★★★★ Used to have expansions. They taken away.
★★★★★ When I originally purchased the game one of the things that sold me on it was that it came with the expansions. Having played the original I knew that without them the game was pretty boring. After the most recent…

★★★★★ I'm not upset I spent the money, I'm upset my favorite game is unplayable.
★★★★★ Devs should roll this one back but the company already has our money so they aren't losing anything from us and they are gaining money from the new users due to cross-platform ability.
★★★★★ I want a REFUND AND THAT IS IT!!!!!

★★★★★ When I play with my friends, it automatically forfeits the game in round 7. I thought it was because of the timer but we just finished playing.... until the forfeit and I had a little under four minutes on the clock!…

Wrong or poor results3%

★★★★★ The text is now minuscule or even blurry.
★★★★★ Most of the features simply cannot be accessed on the touch pad, or of you happen to use one, it usually is the wrong one.

  • I wish other board game adaptations were more like this. 5★, Sep 21, 2025
  • If I had one complaint, I wish on iPhone cards could be tapped and made larger as the font is so small. 5★, Dec 27, 2020
  • This is my favorite board game and me and many others would love to see it come to Nintendo switch. 5★, Dec 13, 2020
  • Would be a nice update if you could, as bots add a different dynamic to the game. 5★, Mar 29, 2020

Fun, addictive35%

67 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I was lucky to have come to the game late, but I did play it in the portrait orientation. I think if you pay attention to your hand and the game it's a non issue. I think this game is a blast.
★★★★★ I enjoy playing the role of a cunning lord trying to gain power and influence in a city against other lords, using adventurers as a kind of weird “human currency” to achieve quests.
★★★★★ I love it and recommend it for anybody who likes a good fun strategy game.
Looks great15%

29 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ Every action that doesn't reveal new information has an undo option, solving the challenges of a small interface.
★★★★★ I was lucky to have come to the game late, but I did play it in the portrait orientation. I think if you pay attention to your hand and the game it's a non issue. I think this game is a blast.
★★★★★ There are many negative reviews because of a UI change that was made many years ago.
Easy to use14%

27 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I don't find it to be user friendly.
★★★★★ Gameplay is smooth and easy.
★★★★★ Nothing in this game will blow you away; however, as with the board game, the mechanics are simple and some complex strategy.
Accurate, great results7%

13 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ Works well on the iPad mini.
★★★★★ The game works great with no glitches that I can see!
★★★★★ I don't play on my iPhone, and perhaps those are where the 1-star reviews are coming from, but the game runs/looks great on an iPad and I have no issues with the interface.
Fast4%

★★★★★ Gameplay is smooth and easy.
★★★★★ You can tell great care went into creating this with the smooth gameplay flow, retinal graphics and sound.
★★★★★ I just started playing this game, and it plays smooth, I have no problem with the UI and the tutorial is excellent.

★★★★★Feb 21, 2026
Poor interface limits playability

Played this game constantly until landscape UI came out. Bigger phones over the last few years make the experience slightly better but it’s still much harder to see things than it used to be. This UI is map for a PC or IPad and is not mobile focused. Results speak for themselves. There are only about 20 open game’s, rarely do they get filled. On one hand, I’m grateful/surprised this game is even still supported. But when I play it’s a struggle to play efficiently. I guess it only gets updates because it’s consistent with other platforms, but I kinda wish it weren’t here to taunt me anymore. This game used to be portrait. The game board and every individual card in the game is portrait, so this made sense. But not we have to view it all on landscape forcing you to zoom in on everything.

★★★★★Dec 20, 2025
First update in 3 years makes game worse

I’ve been playing this game for the last 5+ years regularly on an iPhone mini. I think it has its flaws (completely resetting if you look at a phone notification, I’ve had friends unable to create new accounts, game notification badge indicators disappearing when you open the app but don’t take a turn) but was otherwise an amazing game. Which leads me to: I’m not sure why the developer has changed the user interface on the game instead of fixing those core bugs. I can no longer see my intrigue cards without tapping on them and the quest cards no longer show the plot effect without tapping either (and are honestly overwhelmingly large now). The changes to quests seem nice for someone with vision issues, but make the game harder to play for me. Please either make these changes a setting that users can opt into or revert them, thank you!

★★★★★Dec 19, 2025
Fix notifications in iOS 26

Since updating to iOS 26, this game has no options for notifications. Please fix.

★★★★★Sep 21, 2025
A well implemented board game

I wish other board game adaptations were more like this. Zooming in to see card text on small phones works smoothly. Every action that doesn’t reveal new information has an undo option, solving the challenges of a small interface. The whole game is bug-free in solo play against AI, which is how I usually play it. I just wish we could get even more difficult AI.

★★★★★Aug 29, 2025
Updates never fix notification issues

The game remains great to play, but don’t count on receiving notifications for your turn if you’re an android player. The game receives updates pretty often, but never addresses this. The developer knows this is an issue, yet never addresses it.

★★★★★Feb 18, 2025
Awesome!!

We love this game. what are the things we love about? It is that we don’t have to get all of the pieces out for the actual board game when we use it on the iPad. And it keeps track of our progress and the abilities our cards give us without us having to remember for ourselves. convenience and fun!
