Game rating: I like the base game, and it will always get 5/5 from me. App rating: App contains various bugs, such as locking up after placing tiles, tiles getting duplicatedand preventing "end turn", not being able to place or rotate tiles. Not all could be fixed by going back to the menu and reentering the game, ending games prematurely. In the menu/lobby, a login popup can get stuck. Overall the app feels buggy and unpolished.

Was hesitant to purchase this app after reading the reviews yet decided to take a chance and am so glad that i did. It's an outstanding rendition of the board game and is very fun. It's working nicely without any problems. The tutorial was easy to understand and after learning how to play i completed my first round against three AI. There's a lot of depth to the strategic elements and the variety of tiles ensures maximum replayability. Am looking forward to enjoying Isle of Skye for a long time.

Faithful adaptation of the board game, but the interface and UI is insanely clunky and cluttered. I have logged dozens of plays on the board game and it is still tough to track what is going on in this app. The AI is pretty great, though! Very challenging and it does a surprisingly great job at making human like decisions.
