Seems like this could be a great strategy game that is interactive, and I like all the multiplayer options. And was it even playtested? Please please please make this game all it really can be - because right now, I'd rather play my physical copy than this sadly lacking and buggy app. It seems the creators of this game haven't learned from the masters (Carcassone, Ascension, Lords of Warerdeep, etc.). Shame it isn't an option since pretty much every other game of this caliber and prestige has the option.
#Suburbia game app Bluetooth
Local online via wifi or Bluetooth is a must. Even after forcing the app quit and retrying - since no other option could be made. The tile was placed, the check mark tapped and stats updated but then hung there indefinitely.
Whether it was a server issue or not, I do not know. We got two rounds in (three iPads in same room on same wifi using online multi option) and one player's turn would never finalize so we could never get to the next player's turn. While I'm sure local play (which still deceives because this implies being able to play others on the same local wifi or Bluetooth - which it doesn't and should be changed back to pass and play since that's really what it is) may be working better, online multiplayer is terrible.
#Suburbia game app update
I waited for the first update to shell out the 4.99 for this game hoping all the issues I had read previously were resolved and I'm disappointed. It’s needlessly frustrating to exceed the three-star requirements while playing on only one-star, and missing all credit for your achievement. On a related note, it’d be better to begin with if it just awarded you up to three stars depending on your degree of success, rather than making you choose the target number of stars at the outset and then giving you a mere pass or fail against them. It’d be nice if they’d balanced them a little better - it’s frustrating to not be able to actually pick an appropriate difficulty level. The single-player levels offer an interesting variety of challenges, though the difficulty thereof varies randomly from trivial to completely unforgiving. The gameplay itself is very cerebral - you need to think pretty far ahead in order to stand a reasonable chance of success. If you’re patient enough to ignore that, you do get past it eventually. It has some very poor instructions at various points - multiple times I’ve “lost” a level because the instructions were completely unclear, and I couldn’t tell until the first failure what they actually wanted.
It’s quite clean, graphically, though it seems to have a bit of trouble fitting onto an iPad screen - on some levels you end up scrolling quite a bit too much.
