iOS Online Boardgaming Megathread (Carcassonne, Everything Playdek, & Many More)

Yep. It's a great little game. I'm hoping a universal update is on the way (I think I remember hearing it was), but it still looks fine in 2x mode on the iPad. My wife and I play the IRL version occasionally and have a good good time.

Didn't realise it wasn't universal when I bought it. That's kind of annoying. Have they said that's on the way?

A few close games of Lost Cities with blahness has me sold on it. Very fun once it clicks, though I don't think the AI will get you to that point (even if the goal system is pretty solid).

Easily worth $2.

So Stone Age works async right? Having a bit of difficulty navigating though I only had a couple minutes with it. Also available for games: astrolad

I thought I was winning the tutorial, but ended up getting BRUTALLY destroyed by the AI in Specialists :lol. This game reminds me of a Worker-placement version of 7 Wonders (when it comes to scoring).

Seems like a lot of fun though :)

Normally the Civilization cards (i.e. the trading boats) once taken are secret.
Unless you were taking careful notes during the scoring you find out how well everyone has done.

On async games on yucata it keeps them public so you know how well you are doing.
Also as async games could take months or weeks you can't be expected to remember who took what.

I have no strategy tips as I usually lose. [except don't copy what I do]

Stone Age looks excellent. Feel free to throw an invite at Slacker. I'm trying to start a couple GAF games now but am getting Game Center errors.

Navigating through the tiny GC screen in Stone Age is a pain with a long friendlist. Invite me plz. Also, that league function looks interesting, wondering if there's interest? Random setups between league members and an overall standing sounds like an awesome idea.

Also, Fluxx tonight!!

I really wish GC listed people by who owns the game.
 
I bought Le Havre when it was 99 cents and haven't touched it. Is the tutorial good, or is there a better place online to learn how to play? Seems really daunting to get into.

Yeah, but 3 out of 4 possessions with the phantom isn't bad. Two of which were champions. Ugh! :p
The second I saw that you could posses champions and there is no way to revert them back, I made a build with as many as I could. They're awesome.

In for Fluxx tonight. Never played, but from what I've seen of the game I'm a little worried that it'll be kind of bland without being able to interact with your opponents.

Battle of the Bulge doesn't look like my kind of game, but it seems so well done. Tempting!

Please give us chat in your games Playdek! Only one step away from perfection.... (Okay two -- Elo rating would be nice too. :D)

Ah fuuuu, I think I accidentally did 5h games for Stone Age, sorry. Will re-invite.


Also, buying Fluxx, send me games! Smiley1790!


EDIT: wait, can you only do 5h games in Stone Age? If yes, failllllll. I can't find a setting to adjust length oo

Seriously? The hell?

I saw the 5h for unaccepted games and the first one had 5mins left. I assumed I had simply forgotten to adjust it, but in the invite screen you can only select people, no other settings oO. I hope I'm wrong, because 5h async is pointless.

Pretty sure the time below just mean how long the game has been going or how long since the last turn or something. Because I have an ongoing one that says 21h.
