What real reviews say

★★ Requires internet, DRM? Can’t play on plane if WiFi is not working or if in remote area unless you booted the app when you had connection, was traveling and ran into this just stuck at loading screen unless you have internet. Not great for a board game app that was paid for especially just to access solo play. Game itself

★★★★★ Great port of a great game! I’d been wanting to learn Scythe and when I found the digital version I was really excited. It did not disappoint! The tutorial is a great way to learn the game but it still takes a few runs through a couple of games to get it. Once it clicks, you realize this is one of the best strategy games avail

★ no offline mode is ridiculous why would you build the app this way? can’t play it on a plane, can’t play it on the go, can’t play it unless you have wi-fi… it’s insane
