pc ui is fine but mobile ui definitely needs rework. it's very annoying when it keeps zooming in and shifts the target around randomly. it should maintain the zoom level selected by the user and shouldn't attack unless a tile is selected and the green check button is clicked.

Thanks for giving the game a try! There is an option to turn off auto-panning for the camera. You can find the option by clicking on the menu button at the top right during a battle, or if you are on the home screen, go to settings and turn off auto-panning.

My favorite phone game! A fun balance of strategy and luck. As a bonus, it has no paywall, no pay-to-win, and no ads!
