It's really, really well done. The only gripe is that the role selection screen spans more than 1 "screen", so you have to scroll back and forth to see everything. Even that's not a big deal though.

I don't even think that gripe is valid because the physical version of the game takes up most of my 6-person dining room table for ANY number of players, or at least feels like it! Plus the role selection in the game is THREE BOARDS. Expecting that to be shrunk into on screen is asking a bit much.

Oh, I won the inaugural Racer Feud Goon Prix because everyone else crashed out. :toot: Was about twenty spaces from the finish, though.

What options does the iOS Agricola give you for selecting occupations and minor improvements? Does it support drafting them, or choosing subsets to play with?

Draft, 10-3 (draw ten, discard 3), or random. No subsets, but when the other sets come out you'll be able to enable/disable just like in Playdek's Ascension.

SolForge just popped on Steam under an early access deal. $20 to get in, and you get 20 booster packs when the game goes live. I don't have an iPad but is SolForge considered "worth it"?

I found it fun enough with a big group of friends, but the app's presentation is a little different than I was expecting.

If you're not actively loving others over in Carc you're not playing to win, plain and simple. :colbert:

My wife doesn't play Carc with me any more :(

This is why in my house we have Glen More. Carc-style tile-laying but with fiddly economy bits! :eng101:

Puerto Rico and San Juan are 99 cents for a limited time anyone know about the curse of the assassin games by tin man games?

I can't find Puerto Rico in the App Store. :confuoot: Is it by the same publisher as San Juan?

It's iPad only, I think, so if you're searching for it on an iPhone, that's why.

Damnit, they managed to cram Le Havre on this thing, there's little excuse for screwing us smaller-screened folk! :argh:

Le Havre is hilariously cluttered on iPhone, don't bother unless you REALLY like the board game.

Yeah, $0.99 for Le Havre is great. Surely it will erase the line between the havres and the havre nots. :downsrim:

Get rid of it an the game is just waiting to see who gets lucky the most.

This, sadly, is boardgames to the monopoly crowd.

The tile count and the resulting X'd out tiles are just applying publicly available game state info faster than a human can. Because it's a turn-based game the speed you figure out the game state doesn't matter. It's nothing but a time advantage, and having it turned off only benefits spergs.

I got really excited for Suburbuia (one of my favorites lately) but iPad only. :(

Is San Juan worth 99 cents, it just went on sale.

I bought it at that price last time it went that low and enjoyed the heck out of it for like 3 or 4 months, so in my opinion yes.

Grabbed Waterdeep, poo poo rules. Bit cramped on my iPhone 4, but still great to play. I actually had bought the game for my brother for Christmas but we have yet to play it together.

It's not griefing it's just good strategy

It's also the proper, interactive way to play, as opposed to everyone playing Ye Olde SimCity in their respective corners of the playfield. :colbert:

If you're asking how it actually plays on a phone, it's a bit small, which is hectic during shipbuilding in a live game. Turn based I'd imagine it's fine.

Had some trouble getting to going with my friend on Android tonight, but other games were still working.

As long as it's less cluttered than Le Havre is on a phone, I'm game. :v:
