🤬🤬🤬😇
2 игры с компьютеров и 2 игры на одном устройстве. Нельзя даже все игры опробовать. Я бы посоветовал разработчикам, либо сразу делать игру платной, либо сделать так: 1 реклама = 1 игра. Реализация очень хорошая, приятная анимация, доходчиво объяснены правила. Однако выше перечисленные ограничения не дают поставить этому приложению 5 звезд

Have to buy most content in the game, im not against that but y make the game free. If you like board games you’ll enjoy the free version Edit: Thankyou developer I now understand the reasoning behind these decisions and have now changed my review.

Developer Response
Hi there!   Sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the pricing policy. But when you first try out a local game, the game explain that this is the free version and that it only can try it once - that part is like a demo.   The game has this pricing policy, instead of being a paid game upfront, to make it possible for you to play against a friend without you both having to buy the game. With this model, you can always play one online game at a time for free, so you don’t have to buy it to enjoy just an online game with a friend.The developer of this game is also no big cooperation - it has been developed by me in my spare time, with the help of some amazing designers that I hired. I had to pay them upfront, so anyone who unlocks the full game helps me break even.   Hope that makes everything a bit clearer. For any other feedback, please write at support@strasser.app

1. Please add some kind of free to play option for those cheapskates whining about it. (I went and paid for the premium dlc and I did not regret it one bit! Worth every cent! If you like it, then buy it!)2. Please add more ancient board games in the future. Most of these are Scandinavian/Viking but please add more from ancient Africa, Middle East, East Asia, etc.3. I’ve noticed some difficulty levels from ‘Train’ mode are absent on some games. Why? Please add them and maybe add an ‘Extra Hard’ mode?4. In ‘Train’ mode, Bagh Chal is missing, Why? Only 8 board games are available in ‘Train’ mode. Is there a reason? How come?5. Please add Chinese Chess, Fanorona, Go, (Since Gomoku is there) and maybe Mancala? (or its older variants?)

One free game then have to buy to play. Not that fun.
