Qwirkle 4+

Trouble with online play

This game is wonderful. I have purchased several physical board game versions and love it; however, I have not been able to play using Game Center on iPhone or Mac book pro. The only way I’m able to see the opponent has taken a turn is by closing Qwirkle and reopening it. Not a good user experience for the app. Has anyone else had these problems?

Works fine for robot mode so for solo play everything works great.

This would be a 5 star if I could get online play to work correctly. The game itself is wonderful.

Victor - We are here to help! There's a few basics I'll list here, but if you have any issues just drop us an email at contact@919games.com See the following please:

1. Verify you are using the latest Qwirkle app and the sure fire way to do that is if you see Both the 919Games and THEN the MMOV splash screens on start up.


2. Then go to your Apple Settings – not the game – and you need to work your way to the setting for Game Center.


Turn connect Off if it is on and then restart your device and come back and turn it ON , OR if it’s OFF to begin with, turn it ON and restart your device.


All friends must be playing the updated version.



We are at your service and can provide screenshots and more helpful info as you may wish😊.

Awesome!

This version is awesome! But there are a few things you may want to know: If you updated before completing current games in the older version or had automatic updates turned on, yeah those games may be lost, but achievements and all else are still there. To the Friends thing, everybody has to be updated and playing the same version. Get all your friends to update and you’ll be golden. I had to reinvite a couple of friends but no biggie once they updated.

Great customer service

I was having an issue with being able to play with friends. I reached out to game developers and they told me what to do…and it worked! Naturally it boiled down to user error (me). Love the board game so I thought I’d try the app version. Playing with the robot drives me a little crazy because he blocks almost every move I want to make. I guess I need to learn to play better. 😄

Hi Lesley ! You can set the Offline robot to 4 different settings: Easy, Average, Hard and Expert. When you start an offline game, just tap on Easy and it will change to Average and so on until you see the level of robot you'd like to play against. Then just tap Start Game and voila! Happy Qwirkling!
