Great implementation, but missing a much desired online async mode common to mobile versions of board games. Microtransactions are expected with these type of apps, but is divided up strangely; be prepared to pay an extra $8 for all the current content. Lastly there doesn't seem to be support for more than 2 players; this is a small quibble since the game is best at 2p, but it lack of 3-4p does deviates from the physical version.

Thanks for your feedback, and for trying Santorini! Just like the physical game, this comes with full functionality and a wide selection of gods, with more in expansions (these can be bought together for $7.99 for max savings). The app store image already states “INCLUDES 34 GODS!”. We’ve updated the store description too, to make pricing clearer.

I enjoy challenging strategy games like this that dont require a lot of reading since I'm usually listening to podcasts or audiobooks at same time. Splendor, Noch Mal, Doppelt so Clever are other good examples. Simple rules but God cards add enough variety to keep interesting. 10-15 mins a game is a nice length. Just ordered physical game! This is one of the better implemented ports of a board game. Not buggy, nor laggy. Graphics work well on phone size device. -1⭐ because AI too hard/errorless

Great implementation, smooth play and very addicting but I can't forgive the pay to play nature once you buy the game. If you play the Odyssey (single player) mode you quickly get to a point where you have only 1-2 paths that you have to beat in order to get more challenges but those paths will have a expert(or similar) difficulty. The difficulty is fine and welcoming but it ramps up quickly and you realize to play more without suddenly becoming an expert you have to buy heros to get paths.

Dear Wil, please consider that without purchasing additional gods you can still reach the end of the map and complete the odyssey mode getting your achievement on play games. The path that you can unlock with the base game has a progressive increment of difficulty. The same is with the gods that you purchase, they also increase AI level.
