A real gem
Mon Aug 09 2021 Scuttlefish

This is a very well done port of the board game but also adds a lot of single player content. It’s a very fun game of luck and skill, build a ship with the best scrap parts you can find and hope the dice favor you. Always peek at the mission cards after you’ve welded your first part, it’s vital to know how many cannons and crew you may need, and if you need cannons on the side.

Online mode still has bugs

We currently have an online Green glow mission, started by Vlysandor, with also hackenbacker, conmanjoe, and nitro9 playing. All claim that the game itself has finished in the lobby screen (when in fact, we have just started the stage 3 flight, having already completed a stage 2 flight). But when we open the game, it appears to be nitro9’s turn, and nitro9 herself is unable to turn over any tiles. This way, her 3-day reserve countdown clock before being dropped from the game is ticking, but we can’t do anything about it. Please take a look and fix, thanks! -keen trucker

unnecessary slow cuts and animations hinder a decent port of the classic boardgame

lol at the review on top tgat said you should be able to “buy a prebuilt ship.” I think you miss the point of the game. You’re supposed to build ridiculous ships. the board game is a scramble for tiles irl. That being said, why did the app makers think it would be fun to pad a really fast game with slow flavor text cut scenes and really slow redundant animations? yes there’s a FF button that sorta works...but it would be nice to have the option to play the actual game. also a drag that we cannot quit and restart where we left off without having to dreg through all the padding.

Excellent port of the board game

A faithful and well made version of the board game. Polished, great sound effects and sound track and a fantastic campaign mode to keep you building the most ridiculous space ships. Plenty of humor, had me chuckling many times. The designers and programmers did a great job bringing this awesome game to iOS. I’m having a blast with it.

I paid again for this game hoping it was a fixed version of the other game they had. Admittedly the other game was never that great, seemed a little boring but I still paid for it and wanted to try playing it online. That doesn’t work despite trying to change my password the server doesn’t work. I was hoping they fixed it and since they didn’t explain this is the exact same game just sized for a phone I wasted more money. And therefore I am being generous with just two.

Great Game, but missing a number of features

It’s a great adaptation of the board game on the surface, but lack of some features can make it very frustrating. 1) Formatting. The game is not formatted well for newer iPhones with some elements hard to click on and read. It definitely needs some UI tuning. 2) Push Notifications. PLEASE ADD PUSH NOTIFICATIONS. Turn based games are way harder to play if I have to remember to come back and check the game for my turn.

Great idea—but turns too laborious

It takes so long to make your ship— EACH ROUND— and the rounds are SHORT— that after about six times, I’m ready to call it quits... for a $5 app, i would expect a feature where you can buy a prebuilt core to your ship so you don’t spend forever prepping for each round. Please change that. I know when I play the board game with my friends, we have to change the rules because otherwise you’d spend 4/5 of the evening rebuilding ship after ship instead of going on the adventure cards...

Fun!

Great fun, nice mobile version of a board game. The sound effects and slight animations are a nice addition. The fast forward button is perfect to zoom through what you don’t want to take too long. Keep in mind that the main part of this is the ship build, it’s not so much about the flight as it is the building!
