8 of 15Fun with depth. Relatively easy to learn with lots of replayability.
I love the game and the digital port is very good but there’s a serious issue with the digital implementation of the rules. It seems you can currently purchase 1 tile from another player. Where I believe you should go back and forth purchasing one or more tiles until everyone passes.
I play other Asmodee games with my friends often. Isle of Skye tells me I am logged in as Purple Skates when it opens. When I try to play with friends it tells me to enter my email or user name. I try each, but neither works. It just freezes at that point. It Never asked for a passeord or does anything else. I just downloaded this game and learned it to increase my social joy durring the pandemic. I enjoy the game. I really want it to work. Please. Help.
Games “freezes / locks up” mid play large majority of the time. Very frustrating
Was working fine, now picking casual game or running games, after the asmodee account login it goes to a popup that says “Login with Game Center” that I can’t get past. Can’t either create or join a game anymore. Useless.
I love the board game version of Isle of Skye. The interface and AI for the app are well done. However, about 1 in 4 games lock up and have to be aborted. That is frustrating.
I hope someone from the team look at these reviews and comments and do something about it. Why abandon such a good game?? I found one bug with the game. Sometimes, my tile duplicates and the game forces me to place thr duplicate tile somewhere new, once the tile is dropped on the map, you wont be able to move it and if you dropped it nowhere (not connected to tile in the map, just an unconnected space) it will stay there and you will have to restart the game because that forces me not to complete my action as one my tile is still stuck in the move. Hard to explain this but this happened to at least five times now. Doesnt happen in every game. Also, I recommend adding some expansions to this game.
Can not play games against AI. Can not even find online games available. Forces me to continually sign in. Game continually gets frozen in opening screen. I’ve never wanted my money back more. This game is completely useless with these issues.
