On the go fun for everyone
Mon Dec 19 2022 TheSparemanDead simple to learn. Tons of player interaction. It was a huge hit on a recent roadtrip. Lots of laughs.

Great fun for adults and kids alike
Sat May 14 2011 KarmicfreakMy 5 1/2 year old daughter and I were looking for a game to play together, and this was the perfect purchase. The gameplay is simple, but the strategy is deep. We enjoyed playing against each other and discussing strategy with positioning close to 3- and 2- fish hexes, and then about closing off an island with lots of fish just for you, and how to make the most of the moves you have left. Then we added computer opponents and the gameplay changed. I'm looking forward to playing this against other adults. An online mode would be fun, but I'm not sure I'd play it or not. Thanks, this was just what I was looking for.
Like the board game but no setup
Thu May 12 2011 Superhawk2300This is a great abstract game we play a lot. Great look and feel, no bugs. Highly recommend.
There are a few areas for improvement. First the timer. I love the automatic timer, but the range of times that are selectable are too small. Please update and increase the range of times that canister be selected. 20 seconds is not enough sometimes. At least increase it to a minute and maybe even 5 minutes for very small children. It's not like it would be more than a few minutes of coding to increase the timer time. Also some different ways to configure starting board setup would be nice, but not a big deal as the timer since this would actually take some work to do and isn't as shortsighted as the timer issue.
Fun but...
Thu Jul 21 2011 EchoshiftingThis is a fun little game I enjoy playing with my daughter. Unfortunately, most of the board layouts are locked until you defeat the computer opponent many times, sometimes in abstract and challenging ways. This makes no sense whatsoever. It's a board game. I want to play it with my family. The developer is asking me to become a master of the game to get at the content I paid for, in the process growing to far exceed the skill level of anyone else in my family. Meaning I either have to covertly handicap myself, which I hate doing, or just not be any fun to play against. Boneheaded decision. But if you don't mind having just the basic layout - or if you intend to play against the AI, which isn't even all that fun to begin with compared to similar products - it's still a pretty enjoyable game to play with your kids.
Great!!!!
Sat Apr 30 2011 BumblescrumpThe only thing that could make this better is online multiplayer, otherwise it is a very polished implementation of a fun board game, and the AI is very good and fun to play with. Hope fantasy flight doesn't stop here, they have many more great games and obviously they have some talented programmers to make it happen! Where's battlelore?! Or Arkham Horror?!
Funny and strategic single and multiplayer goodness!!!
Fri Jan 20 2012 AndreXuxuFor some time I avoided this game due to the childish theme. My loss. Wonderful, easy to play. Nice list of achievements give replayability. One of the best iPad game to play with kids, and some nice single player options as well.
Great implementation and nice graphics. Runs perfect on my iPad 2.
Highly recommended!
I love this game!
Fri Jul 27 2012 JesseandjennyI love the board game so I picked this up. I have been teaching my 4yr old how to play using the iPad version so i can pull out the real game with him sometime soon. This game is easy enough to play with a 4yr old yet has enough strategy to keep adults asking to play it again.
Fun game but AI is WAY too easy!
Tue May 03 2011 rdggeeThe game itself is enjoyable but even on "hard" mode the AI is much too easy to beat. I win almost every time, so there's not much reason to keep coming back to the game unless the developers would be willing to raise the AI difficulty. With the difficulty left as is, this is a $5 game that might provide an hour of fun max...
