Хорошая реализация игры, но сложные боты не таки уж сильные

This is an excellent implementation of a great boardgame for playing on iPad. Brass (2007), now called Brass:Lancashire). The screen displays, game board, scoreboard, turn play animations, and turn action options are very clearly presented, and make playing easy for the experienced player. The AI that controls the computer opponents (if played solo) also seems excellent. I have the actual boardgame but I reached an impasse trying to learn the rules, and so I did the full tutorial in this app for iPad, and then with the printed rulebook in hand, the app ready to play, and the actual boardgame set up identically on my table, I just played through a solo learning game. Overall it’s helped me better understand the game play, but I wish I could stop or at least slow down the computer turn moves so I could learn from how they were playing. I also wish there was a button I could tap to get recommendations for my next move. So, overall, this is a great implementation for experienced players, and with a couple additional Help features it would be a valuable tool for learning Brass.

Little brother to Brass Birmingham which is a much better game. Notifications don’t work on this app, new games list at the bottom, and a few wonky UI bits that take some getting used to. But it’s generally a good port of an okay game.

Bought Brass app with a friend after seeing it listed on a gaming website as highly rated. Both of us tried to register in the app for their online games but it says no internet connection. We both had same issue. We tried cell and different WiFis. I sent developer (Cublo) a message through their website more than a week ago and no response. Maybe they don’t run their online server anymore. Will ask Apple for a refund

Haven’t been able to log in to the app in weeks. Anyone know if it’s still working? I’ve tried reaching out to developers/etc and no responses.

I was introduced to the world of Brass through the Birmingham version of the board game, which I have played a couple of times. Someone in my playgroup told me that an app is available so I checked it out. I understand the game a lot better now and have really enjoyed being able to take on the AI, which is pretty good at the difficult level.

Me and my buddies LOVE this game. This iOS implementation is wonderful. Each week we create a few online games and here’s what we hate: new online games get placed at bottom of the game list. Why is that a problem? No search or scroll mechanics are available and that means 2 or 3 minutes of endless finger swipes just to get down to our game. Doing anything to fix that would be sweet. I also wish played games could be reviewed and analyzed. Sadly, once game completes, there is no return to look over the board or statistics.

This is a great implementation of the board game Brass: Lancashire by Martin Wallace. It is a tense economic board game where you try to outsmart your opponents - building coal mines, iron works, and cotton mills at the right time. The hard part is that as you build across England, you can only access the cities connected to your network of canals and railways. When you spend more money than your opponents, you move after them in the following turn. It ends up being a delicate balance of spending and saving money, while striking at the right time to score points. The AI is good enough that I have problems beating them in a four-player game, but it really shines with multiplayer. I've been having fun playing with my board game group that moved across the country. The notifications sometimes don't work, so we use Discord to let the next player know when it's their turn. We also noticed a minor display bug with the distant markets, but it doesn't really affect gameplay. Overall a great game, even if there is somewhat of a learning curve.

I’d give it 5 stars, but my friends and I needed to use a messaging app to alert each other when it was their turn
