Dice Rolls are not good

This game is great but the random generator for dice rolls seems off

Horrible UI/UX

I’ve played the regular Catan app for years now and never really had any complaints about it. The online gameplay didn’t work well but I didn’t use it so it never bugged me.

Catan Universe is a dramatic departure from the look and feel of the original app (called Classic now, I believe). I’m sure it took a lot of time to make these nice 3D objects, but the gameplay has taken a serious step backwards with regards to usability. What once took 1 or 2 taps now takes 6 or 8, and information that I care about is not easily viewable. It feels like a designer went nuts and made things way too complicated.

The UI for trading is horrible.
It seems I can’t offer multiple of one card to somebody, and the buttons clog up the screen unnecessarily.

The overall game board screen is cluttered with icons and buttons and it doesn’t help me.

The menu for building has been removed in favour of hovering game pieces that appear when you can afford them. Dragging them to their new location on the board is an awkward experience, and it just doesn’t feel like I’m purchasing these things.

Buying development cards has been hidden away until you can afford it too. It appears as a transparent icon over the game board when you can purchase, adding to an already cluttered screen.

This is just to name a few bizarre UI/UX decisions, but I’m thankful I have the original Catan Classic app to play — Catan Universe is an app/game I would never decide to play.

Crashes on iPad & doesn’t work on browser

Catan 2.0 is a disaster for the following reasons:
- shows what card was stolen from other players
- app crashes on iPhone and iPad
- can’t see dev cards being played by other played
- load time on browser is long
- Game is filled with unnecessary UI changes eg emoji and unnecessary camera zooming

The essence of the main catan game is gone with the new update. Save your money and do not spend it on this app.
