• Bug fixes and detail improvements
Savannah Park is a wonderful digital adaptation of a board game that hits that 'sweet spot' of being easy to learn but difficult to master. It’s essentially a spatial puzzle where you’re trying to move animal tiles to create the largest possible groups of the same species. The catch? Once you move a tile, it’s locked in place for the rest of the game. It’s a brilliant mechanic that makes every single turn feel high-stakes.
The digital version handles the bookkeeping perfectly, automatically calculating your scores and showing you exactly where you can move. The solo mode is great for high-score chasing, but the multiplayer is where the real tension lies, as you're all working with the same sequence of tiles. It’s a calm, thoughtful game that rewards forward-thinking and spatial awareness. The art is clean and charming, making the whole experience feel like a relaxing afternoon at a wildlife preserve.
Official board game adaptation
Solo, local, and online multiplayer modes
Easy-to-understand rules with deep strategy
Beautifully illustrated animal tiles
Focus on connecting your animals to watering holes. Each watering hole in a group multiplies the score of that species, so one well-placed tile can change the whole game.
Be careful not to leave single animals near the fire icons on the board edges. At the end of the game, fires will scare away certain animals, potentially ruining your largest herds.
A full game of Savannah Park usually takes about 15-20 minutes, making it perfect for a quick tactical challenge.
There is nothing wrong with how this game plays, it’s perfectly done in every respect. However, on a phone screen the tile icons are just too small, some of them I can’t tell which animals are on the tile because they are so tiny. To the developer, I suggest making the board bigger for phones. There is enough blank space around the board to do this. Making the board (and thus tiles) bigger would make this app playable on a phone. Right now, it’s too small, so I deleted it. So my recommendation is, if you have an iPad, this app is perfect. If you’re thinking of playing on your phone, however, it will be too small and you’ll need a magnifying glass. Good game otherwise, though, and good price.
The game is well presented, has a clean and straight forward interface. You can play solo mode (like solitaire) or two player face to face. I really wish it had an AI for the two player mode.
