HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (1.0 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. 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.

★★★★★ Elegant in it's scoring mechanism, deep strategy. Fun to play but I've never gotten to play a real human. For most, the AI is hard to beat, but over time you will overcome all of them. Dropping a star as 2 player…
★★★★★ Rules are simple and AI taxing enough for several hour campaign.
★★★★★ This game was easy to learn and fun to play.

Out of date

The devs have abandoned this game and it doesn’t work on the newer iPhones anymore. Uninstalled it. Do not buy it!!

★★★★★Jan 14, 2024
Great game, but one recommendation

Favorite game of all times. The only thing I wish you would potentially change is the ability to pass a turn. Seeing players who know they are beat passing turns indefinitely to avoid losing.

★★★★★Sep 20, 2023
Kahuna is my favorite game ever

It is a fun strategy game and 1 or 2 people can play it ! It is definitely worth $2.99 !

★★★★★Apr 13, 2021
Spiel Schummelt

Leider habt Ihr seit dem letzten Update dem Computerspieler das Schummeln beigebracht. Wenn der Computer eine verdeckte Karte zieht, kann ich mit 99%iger Sicherheit voraussagen, welche Karte es ist (diese spielt er dann natürlich im nächsten Zug). So wird der Computerspieler zwar auf der besten Stufe tatsächlich stärker, das Spielen macht aber wesentlich weniger Spaß, weil man einfach keinen Bock hat, gegen jemanden zu spielen, der sich nicht an die Regeln hält. Leute, ein starker Computerspieler macht sicherlich ein Spiel attraktiv, aber ein schummelnder Computer ist ein absolutes No-Go! Lest mal die Kommentare in anderen Spiele-Apps, wenn rauskommt, dass der Computerspieler schummelt. Dann doch lieber einen schwächeren Computer. Und bitte nicht rausreden: Ich halte Statistikvorlesungen und kenne mich sehr gut mit Wahrscheinlichkeiten aus ;-)

★★★★★Sep 11, 2020
Cool spatial puzzle game—could use undo button

i don’t typically like area control games, but I’m really into this one and have played it around 20 times. I find myself drawn to playing it and feeling incredibly smart when I win. The game is well-designed, engaging, and plays fast. The app runs smoothly. I only wish you could undo your turns. If you think that would bother you, I’d recommend you play this on Yucata.de instead.

★★★★★Feb 23, 2020
Love it

Have the original board game and enjoy this implementation. Worthy computer opponent.

Store description

Let the magical strategy game take you to paradise islands! As a powerful Kahuna priest, you‘ll fight exciting duels in order to conquer a paradisiac archipelago in the South Pacific. Build bridges to link the islands to each other, and try to expand your empire of islands as much as possible through three rounds of the match. You‘ll need a good strategy to do so; but only, if the gods are well disposed towards you, you’ll draw the right cards – and be able to conquer the beach paradise. In the single-player campaign, compete with the friendly fisherman, the skilful tattoo artist, the merciless warrior, or the ingenious chieftain; or prove yourself in multi-player matches against your friends or Kahuna players from all over the world. You’ll learn the simple rules of the exciting board game very quickly; however, conquering the island paradise will turn out well only for the best. Join us on an exciting journey to the South Pacific – but be careful: its magic doesn’t let you go anymore! - Magical game for one or two players - Easy rules for a fast game start - Campaign mode for single players - Turn-based online multiplayer mode for two players - Numerous achievements - 12 AI opponents with different personalities and tactics provide varied challenges - Based on the successful board game classic - Available languages: English, French, German, Dutch ***** Questions or suggestions for improvements: Mail to ios@usm.de We are looking forward to your feedback!
