Description
SET YOUR PRICES, BUY, SELL, BUILD, AND MAKE CHOICES BECAUSE ONLY ONE CLAN CHIEFTAIN WILL WIN
Five clans are fighting to rule over the Isle of Skye. Only the chieftain who develops the best clan territory and trades wisely will be king!
When leaving your castle, build up the Isle of Skye by adding green hills, perfect beaches and mountain ranges. Raise livestock, produce precious whisky, build forts and ships... Expand your territory tile by tile, pay to keep hold of your tiles or sell them to an opponent for the price you've set... Tile price setting, purchases, sales, and structures are the key to becoming the ruler of the Isle of Skye!
Every game is different and will see you developing different strategies and tactics! With changeability and easy to learn rules, Isle of Skye is the perfect game for all types of players.

Ratings and Reviews
Needs work
I don't like to give crappy reviews but this game is not market ready. Tried to play offline with two human and one AI players and it was glitch city, culminating in the game just freezing. I'm running an iPad mini 4 with iOS 10 so there really shouldn't be any issues there. On the positive side, it looks like it'll be a very good app... once the technical problems are resolved.
Edit: the recent update seemed to improve functionality initially but unfortunately the glitches soon resurfaced and the game eventually froze again. It should be said that, for some reason, these problems seem mainly to afflict the game when playing with more than one human player. I've managed to play a few single human vs AI opponents with either no or minimal glitches. And what I've seen so far leads me to think that this will be a great app once the wrinkles are smoothed out.
Developer Response ,
Hello Mopmeister.
Thank you for your feedback and the information regarding the issues you encountered. We are aware of the remaining issues that you've encountered and are almost ready to deploy a new build of the game that should resolve any lingering issues. We apologize for any frustration caused by this.
Login chaos
Nice enough game. Unfortunately trying to integrate with Asmodee’s login system looks to have failed miserably. I can play all other Digidiced games online quite happily, but just get continual errors when trying to start a game on this one.
Money back please
Very slow animations and no way to skip them - I don’t care where my opponents have placed their tiles.
Wants me to log in over & over again - sometimes in the middle of a move. I have an Asmodee account for other games and have never had to log in after the first time.
Constantly tells me to check my internet connection when I can get online with other apps/games.
There’s no online instant game play so games are played out painfully slowly over days.
Forget this... it could be good, but it isn’t. Buy the Isle of Skye board game and download the Ticket To Ride game app instead of this.
