Raven

The production here is excellent. Beautiful and very user friendly. It’s easy to read the game stats while playing. My only (sort of) negative is I think Rook/Raven is just an ok trick taking game. It’s a classic but there are better ones out there. But at the end of the day it’s a great app implementation and I would wholly recommend it.

Please make it fit newer iPhones better. Otherwise great!

This developer did absolutely everything right. The design is gorgeous. The interface is as smooth as can be. The AI is smart and fair, like a real person would be. And because you can adjust the target score, your game can be as short or as long as you want it to be. The premium price for such a well-made app is beyond fair. And no ads or IAP make it so much better than most games out there. And it’s good on battery and storage too. I usually won’t play landscape games because I don’t like holding my phone that way. But I’ve made an exception with this game because it’s so good. It’s my go-to solo card game now. Challenging but not frustrating, strategic but relaxing too. The perfect balance. And the win/lose ratio is right, like a game with humans would be. Multiplayer is being added, which some will prefer, but I’m glad it plays solo well because that’s my preference. I applaud you developer for doing this so well and monetizing it so fairly. I hope it’s successful. We need more indie developers like you making good game apps. Thank you! I highly recommend this game!

Raven is everything I could want out of a card game app. The design is gorgeous, the music is calming and unobtrusive, and the gameplay is smooth. It is this app's simplicity that makes it shine. You can adjust the sound volume, the music volume, and the winning score. That's it. Raven takes the base game of Rook and implements it perfectly.

I’ve never written an app review in my life but Raven is such a special game, I feel that I have to let other people know! The game is wonderful — both strategic but also relaxing. But the scenery and soundtrack make it really unique and pleasurable. It’s thoughtful and gorgeous. No idea how this special game wasn’t at the top of every “best of 2022” list. Would love to play additional games by this developer in the same style. Thanks for such a lovely game!

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this game on a mobile device but I love it. The game is fun and the music and illustrations are great.
