Nice implementation but some bugs
Tue Oct 04 2022 Neal Games Digitally

Im enjoying the app so far. The tutorial is nice and the interface is very simple and easy to navigate. I have had a few times where my passengers have disappeared while loading/unloading if I try and look at the playerboard. Also there is no way to save a game so that it can be returned to later. Please add this feature! Most mobile gamers don’t finish an entire game session in one sitting.

Very poor tutorial and UI
Fri Sep 01 2023 Lynn Schlatter

I just bought this 30 minutes ago and regret it. The links to the tutorial videos did not work, and the tutorial, instead of explaining basic concepts like “units per action”, made me go through programmed movements. I had no idea why I could do what I could do until I downloaded the rules from BoardGameGeek. Then, the game requires you to be able to discern differences between hues on the player board that weren’t obvious to me, and there was no option to show the text of hues so I could figure out what robot/commuter was needed for which spot. (Obvious in some cases, but I apparently could not discern between a silver outline and a turquoise outline.) Not a user friendly experience for me.

Still buggy after about a year
Sun Jul 27 2025 JAHO2011

I haven’t touched this game in about 2 years due to bugs with pass and play mode. I was happy to see there have been updates, so decided to try it again. The old bug (reported) had to do with pass-and-play and leaving the app mid-game and continuing later. Pass and Play has the same bugs as before. This time, the second player became an AI (was a person). Additionally, colors are very hard to distinguish for robots and people. In the board game this was fixed with silk-screening. Not here. Disappointing that the game remains for sale when it is not being maintained.

Still a few bugs

It’s a great implementation of the board game, but it has some game-stopping bugs: if I switch out to read my email and news for a few minutes, my game is lost without a trace; a couple of times it crashed, saying it was reporting a fatal error to the publishers; and once when I had pulled the last passengers, the bot’s turn froze without event the “thinking” indicator. I look forward to these getting fixed. UPDATE: Found another. Bot player built a track that cut off another of its tracks, then game froze.

A.I. opponent needs work
Thu Oct 06 2022 Wymarc

Interface and gameplay are great! Clear and usable on both the iPad and the phone. But the A.I. is really weak. I’m new to this game, never played it before. I’ve played three games through against the Robot opponent. Lost the first, then won the next two easily. Add a higher level opponent and this will push it to four or five stars

game breaking bug
Mon Mar 27 2023 Charoco71

Implementation isn’t bad as a whole, but I’ve found a game-breaking bug: the second coral station can’t be built sometimes (once happened to a bot, once to me). When I drag the second coral from the selection area, the previously placed coral station disappears, then re-appears when I stop dragging.

Not ready for release
Fri Oct 21 2022 Fizberry

There’s a lot of potential here, but for now it’s very buggy, you can’t undo many actions before it’s the end of your turn, and if you leave a game for awhile it disappears.

Too many bugs
Tue Jan 27 2026 Digital Autumn

Lots of careless problems, like buttons labeled "Button" so you don't know which one is "OK" and which one is "Cancel." Tutorial will not teach you how to play the game, and I am pretty sure the "This is your last turn" warning appears every turn.
