This game is a classic, I used to play the board game version with friends, this digital version is excellent, haven't ever encountered a bug while using it, very good build, and smart AI, I recommend this game.

Liked the original card game. Digital version maintains the card game strategy and simplifies the book keeping for scoring.

fun digitalized version of the real card game. i do much prefer deckbuilding, tcg and the likes though. i can highly recommend Sushi Go or Gloomhaven for analog ttg

This is one of my favorite tabletop games, and I think that this is an adequate translation. The bot AI is very good, which keeps the game interesting. I like how fast matches can be played. The interface was obviously designed primarily for mobile - it would be nice to have some faster keyboard shortcuts and if the larger screen space could be used. In particular, it is hard to keep track of what other players are doing since their tableau is minimized all the time - I would like it if it was maximized by default. With very large hands it also can't show all the cards at once, but I think making the cards much smaller on the screen would be fine. Hopefully the rest of the expansions get added eventually.

Really well-designed version of the board game. I'm impressed with how straightforward and smooth it is. The tooltips on cards make it easier to learn than the physical version too.
