Clunky
First attempt wouldnt let me start a game.
Second attempt, it keeps saying there is no legal play for me nor opponent.
After restarting my device, I actually was able to play a game!
PROS:
- Seems to work when it doesnt crash.
- Greek letters for card "suits" is a nice touch.
CONS:
- I know most everyone lauds the graphics, but I am not impressed b/c the silhouette card symbols are not easy to distinguish.
- It took me a while to figure out the color scheme:
--- back silhouettes show unplayed or previously played cards
--- white silhouettes show last played card (at first I thought these were different cards)
--- tan shows playable cards on your turn
- No networked multiplayer is clunky.
- Menus are clunky
- Quick access to formation ranking is not available, but it really needs to be.
- (minor) Lack of stats. Not a big deal but might be nice.
In short, I cannot recommend this until there are some serious updates. Too bad as the real version is one of my favourite two player games (though I do like Schotten-Totten better!).
