Wasn’t gonna write a review because I have mixed feelings. I love this game, but I can’t ever play with real ppl because I either get kicked out or someone decides they want to quit and then it’s just dumb. There should be some kind of rule around quitting in the middle of a game. Like you can’t do it too many times, or if you do then the next game you play you’re last. Idk SOMETHING. As far as playing with the computer, it’s fun… but especially if you’re on hard mode with a character that has a lot of “skill”, they just role 7s constantly, their numbers are rolled but yours aren’t, etc. It’s not actually “skill”. I’ve figured out how to beat them for the most part but if I can’t get good numbers on ore & wheat, I know I don’t have a chance because they will role a 7 and then use a knight, over and over and over. I had amazing numbers during a recent game and ended up with 2 POINTS because we rolled the same numbers over and over (like literally 10 times in a row), and they had knights and just stole all of my resources. It was the stupidest thing ever.

Anyway. Wasn’t gonna write a review because I do enjoy the game but I just got kicked out 3 times in a row and it kept prompting me to write a review so… here you go.

The AI loves to hammer you with the robber even if you don’t have the lead. I get in a game you can pick on someone who’s building towards what you want or just got the resource you need but a lot of the time it’s who has the lead. The AI doesn’t care even if you're down 3 points and on the other side of the map you’ll still get slammed with the robber 3/4 the time. Also there is only 2 monopoly cards in the deck and I’ve played standard games where they have been used 3 times. I get in the different scenarios that rules and limits vary (although none note more monopoly cards) so I won’t pick on how in those games, but I’ve seen as many as 4 used in a game. Overall this app allows me to play my favorite game whenever and wherever but it does need some tweaks.

Originally gave it 3 stars but after playing the “scenarios” I had to drop it to 1. Literally every game if you get 2 or more points ahead it will constantly roll the 2 numbers you don’t have and you’ll get hit by the robber with every 7 rolled and knight played by the AI players. Even after you lose the lead and if you have one card when every one else has multiple you’ll get hit and the AI will steal your one card.

I left a one star review a month ago and it didn't get posted so consider this 2 one star reviews. This review is completely unrelated to my last review. This game is either cheap or buggy. I've had my resource cards disappear out of nowhere. Didn't trade them, didn't get robbed. They literally just leave my hand. The computer players work together against you. AI knows what cards you have. They only offer you resources you already have, never offer anything you need. AI almost never accepts offers for resources that you need in exchange for resources they have in abundance. AI almost exclusively puts the robber on your tiles. Every card they steal from you is a resource you need for your next turn. Any card you rob from them is a resource you either don't need or have a lot of already. Anytime they place the robber on your tile, that number becomes the "hot" number to roll. As soon as the robber is moved elsewhere, that number goes cold and doesn't get rolled. I paid $5 for the app and I'm deleting it for my own sanity. The $5 doesn't matter at this point. Even if you have the patience of a saint, this game will severely test your patience to the max. Good luck if you do decide to play it.
