Race for the Galaxy

This is really a great game and the devs done a brilliant job with it. Needs an update for larger screens. Hard to see cards on my on my 11pro as there are big borders on both sides

The game and expansions are very well implemented in terms of precisely reproducing the game in a well-executed digital format that looks great and has a good user interface. It is as ever, a phenomenal game. The Hard AI also represents a genuine challenge, even to strong players. There are also plenty of online opponents to play against asynchronously, or sometimes in live games. A couple things that could be improved: - It has started to crash on occasion in single player mode, causing me to have to ditch games. This on an iPhone XR. No bug feedback mechanism in-game. - The multiplayer is extremely basic - no chat, no player rankings, no ability to see other player stats. I play the same people routinely and would love to say “hi” at least. Also when one player pulls out of a game it terminates. They should be replaced with an AI to let the other players finish. - No achievements, scenarios, or anything to give the satisfying illusion of some sort of ‘progress’ after playing the game a lot. See Through the Ages app for a superb example of this done well.

Hi, The game is great! Easily my favorite mobile board game. I am curious to know if there is any plans to release the expansions from the second and third arcs?

It is said clearly in your description that the first two expansions would be immediately available. But you have to buy them. Am I missing something guys? It’s a 1/5 until I get a reply, sorry.

Can’t believe there is not a two player pass and play option. I cannot seem to get a refund either. What a complete waste of money.

A great implementation of a great card game which is let down by too many crashes and games hanging. The AIs are super tough to beat which makes the game a challenge even for a veteran player.

** Update ** I bought the physical base game & The Gathering Storm expansion, and learned the rules & gameplay through those, which has allowed me to play this digital adaptation (whilst giving me a physical copy to play on games nights). My only gripe now is that the digital Gathering Storm expansion is in the in-game store at $3.99, yet when trying to purchase it, it’s trying to charge me £3.99 which seems a little unfair given the advantageous $ to £ exchange rate. I’m going to give that a miss for now instead. ************************************************************** I was really looking forward to playing this, as it’s highly recommended as a solo game amongst boardgamers. However, the tutorials have done nothing to help a new player of the game & I still have absolutely no idea what I’m supposed to be doing, what anything on the cards represents nor what they help you achieve. I guess they were created by an experienced player who’s never had to explain it to anyone who hasn’t played the game before. Utterly, utterly baffled & completely lost. Well, that was £6.99 down the drain. Please, please create some better tutorials.

An excellent game spoiled by poor QA on the latest release. About 1/3 of all games now crash online with neither player able to open the game without it crashing the app completely. Come on, sort it out!

I’ve played the tutorial up to the bit where it says “Now you know everything you need to know to finish the game” twice, and still have no idea what’s going on. Concepts like card colour, resource types and action bonuses are alluded to, but left unexplained. I know I can find the game rules online, but this could still be a bit more beginner friendly.

Had a little trouble trying to play online, emailed support and they quickly solved the issue.
