Roll For The Galaxy is a brilliant digital adaptation of the popular board game. The transition from physical dice and player boards to a mobile screen is handled with impressive grace. The UI successfully condenses a massive amount of information—phase selections, dice pools, and planet developments—into a readable format, which is no small feat for a game this complex.
The AI is surprisingly competent, providing a legitimate challenge even for experienced players. Games against the AI are lightning-fast, usually wrapping up in under 10 minutes, making it an excellent choice for a quick strategic fix. While the tutorial could be a bit more comprehensive for newcomers, anyone familiar with the 'Race for the Galaxy' family of games will find this to be a nearly flawless implementation of a tabletop classic.

Always keep an eye on your credit total. If you use all your dice as workers but have no credits to bring them back to your cup, you'll have a very slow following turn.
Predicting your opponents' moves is crucial. If you think an opponent is going to settle, you can assign your dice to the settle phase without using your own 'lock' on it, allowing you to use your lock for a different phase.
