  • Faithful and detailed adaptation of the original board game that captures its spirit well.
  • Single player campaign and puzzle challenges provide fun and varied gameplay, suitable for solo play.
  • Automatic calculations and clear indication of consequences for each action help streamline play and reduce bookkeeping.
  • Severe and recurring zooming and map navigation bugs cause the city board to disappear with no way to recenter, forcing game restarts.
  • Lack of tutorial or sufficient in-app instructions makes it difficult for new players to learn or understand the rules and win conditions.
  • Interface issues on mobile devices including poor UI scaling, missing buttons, overlapping OS controls, and lack of volume control frustrate gameplay experience.
  • music
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users consistently report that the game's music plays loudly on startup and cannot be fully muted or silenced, even when sound settings or device mute options are enabled. This lack of control over the music, especially the intro and splash screen, detracts from the user experience and calls for improved sound settings.

    • “Leave the app for a while and the sounds and music are on.”
    • “Can turn off 'effects' but not completely silence the app, and music ignores do not disturb too.”
    • “Love the game, but even with the sound option turned off, the bezier games splash screen still plays music.”
    • “On my Samsung tablet, on which I was able to install it, I cannot play it almost anywhere because there is no way to turn off the extremely loud music.”
    • “Music plays on startup with no option to turn off.”
    • “Can turn off 'effects' but cannot completely silence the app, and music ignores Do Not Disturb mode as well.”
  • stability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from frequent bugs and crashes, including incorrect win/loss notifications and runtime errors after matches. Stability issues significantly impact gameplay enjoyment, making the app frustrating despite a solid adaptation of the board game.

    • “However, this game can be quite buggy - a few times it has told me I've won and reached all the goals even when I didn't, and vice versa when I have reached all the goals it uses statistics completely different from the ones in my city and says I lost.”
    • “Can play campaign, but it's buggy and crashes with a runtime error after every game.”
    • “Very buggy and lacking basic explanation / intuitive gameplay.”
  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features interesting and varied mechanics with diverse goals, making it engaging. However, it suffers from bugs, lacks clear explanations, and has readability issues that can strain the eyes during play.

    • “A fun game mechanic and a good conversion.”
    • “Gameplay is interesting and varied due to the variable goals.”
    • “Very buggy and lacking basic explanation / intuitive gameplay”
    • “Kindly update the text on the tiles to be easily readable and to have less strained eyes after the gameplay session.”
    • “Mechanics of the app seem to work fine.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally seen as unremarkable and cluttered, with some users feeling recent updates have made the visuals overdesigned and less appealing. There is a desire for a cleaner UI and a refreshed graphic style that better reflects the original board game.

    • “Visuals are unremarkable.”
    • “Not really much in the way of graphics.”
    • “Would be nice to have a less cluttered version of the UI and possibly revamp the graphics from the original board game.”
