The Castles of Burgundy 4+

Good adaptation, some improvements needed

This is, overall, a good adaptation of the Board game. Generally speaking, the AI is a solid opponent. But there are some improvements would be greatly help the game:

1. The board game has been updated with expansions / extra tiles. Seeing those extra tiles added to the app (even as an IAP) would be great.

2. I’ve experienced an odd bug when playing a castle tile. It has to do with playing a tile, wanting to buy a tile for 2 silver and then taking the 2nd action. For some reason, you have to buy the other tile before placing the castle and taking the second action. (Perhaps this is following the rule book, but perhaps it’s a bug?)

3. The expansions also have a lot of different player boards. Only having the original 8 gets old. Adding new boards would be a HUGE improvement to the app.

4. Similar to #3, having more choice over which board to play. Going random is…random. Being able to choose from a couple of different boards would be a nice touch.

Overall, it’s one of my most played board game apps. If you’re on the fence, you should get it. But it hasn’t been updated in quite a while and it could use some TLC to update it with the current releases of the tabletop game (expansions, player boards, etc.)

개발자 답변 ,

Hello! Thank you for your positive review and your feedback.


1+3+4) Castles of Burgundy will be our next game migrated to the new server. Besides UI improvements and a new main menu we are thinking of other additions we can add to the game. We will think about your suggestion.


2) If I understood your bug description correctly it is: If you play a castle you are allowed to do an action without any cost. If you want to build a building you need to own it first.
We will check this to be sure it's working properly.

An update of the game is on its way. It will take some time but we are working on it. We will share info about that on our social media.

Best regards,
Team Digidiced

Scoring Tile Error

Developer, please fix the yellow knowledge tile (I believe it’s #7?) that scores each time an animal tile is scored. Friends and I have noticed that it gives a mystery extra point each time it is activated, on TOP of the points it already gives. For example, if I add a 2 cow tile to a pasture with two other 2-cow tiles, it will correctly add the cows (6), correctly give 3 knowledge points for the 3 tiles scoring, and then incorrectly add a mystery point for a total of 10 when it should be 9.

This app is great overall, though! Have played it with friends now dozens of times.

Forced forfeit bug!

Edit: bug persists throughout several of the past few updates. Why is this bug so hard to fix? I estimate that I’ve lost 30-40 games because of this bug, and my ranking has suffered greatly through no fault of my own. I currently have a game live that has been sitting in my games list for several months as neither my opponent nor I have taken action on it.

Developers please fix the bug that causes the game to get hung after one of my opponents is timed out and forced forfeit by my other opponent. At this point it’s my turn but going into the game, it never progresses to my turn, stays on “waiting for opponent”. This results in my turn also timing out and my opponent also forcing me to forfeit. Very frustrating in ranked games, had this happen 4-5 times in the past couple months, submitted several bug reports from the game, but it’s still not fixed, nor have I gotten any response. 🧐
