Wingspan: The Board Game 4+

Coding errors

I enjoy playing the game on my iPad. I have noticed what must be coding errors and know of no means other than this review to report them. 1. In several games when the goal for the round is simply the number of birds in a habitat, I notice that the quantity of an opponent’s birds decreases from one turn to another. I don’t understand how it’s possible for this to happen. It could if it was the number birds with egg, but not when goal is simply the number of birds. 2. When scoring a round it’s possible to see progress toward future goals for all players. However it can be misleading because one opponent often has zero birds toward a future goal but at the end of the first turn, might have way more birds than is possible to gain in one turn.

Good game!

I love this game and was psyched to hear that an iOS version was coming out. I bought it to play on my iPad but apparently I need iOS 13 to run this on my iPad and my iPad runs iOS 12.5. I downloaded it to my iPhone and have a few suggestions and criticisms. The font for the game I know is staying true to the game, but it is very faint and hard to read on an iPhone. I would suggest increase font size slightly or print it in bold. Black text would be best instead of the brown text. You can’t zoom in in this app, so the games that I played I kept having to take it screenshot, go look at the screenshot where I could zoom in on the image to find out what I needed then go back to the game. It was quite frustrating. I ended up finding the game available for the Switch and bought it. Since I can’t play this on my iPad which was my original intention, I probably won’t play the iOS version again. It was too frustrating trying to read it on my iPhone and having to take screenshots. Overall though, good implementation of the game.

Developer Response ,

hi.

Thanks for the information. I would like to let you know that this problem has now been resolved. We enlarged the font.

Fantastic port, Awful online performance

This app is so well designed and such a great port for playing single player vs AI games. But we each bought this so our family could play online as we live in different states. The number of fatal crashes of the app when playing online has rendered it totally unplayable. It feels like it’s based on the complexity of the turns as the game progresses. Meaning we rarely have crashes in the first round, but by the time you get midway through the third round, each of us start experiencing crashes on our iPads, and the fourth round is guaranteed to have a few crashes. Looking at the other players game boards is an automatic crash, so we can’t even track how the other players are doing. Games with 3 experienced players + 2 AI players take 80-90 minutes because of all the downtime with the app crashes. We’ve stopped playing it online because it’s become unusable. Last game my dad crashed 4 times, my brother 3 and I crashed twice. 9 separate app crashes. All of us have the latest iOS and app updates. Hoping this gets fixed because it’s such a great game.
