Line 'Em Up®: Board Game

Updated review: My entire family and I play this game daily. It USED to be my wind down time after dinner. I used to have a great record with this game and now I find myself losing 6 games in a row. My husband says he feels it’s rigged depending on how much you play. Idk. I literally try the best strategies and for some reason I am always lacking a card I need to get a line, and crazily enough the other player gets lines more easily. I tried being a good sport about it a few days but after today I’m just done. This used to be a relaxing game now it’s just playing frustrating lol. Deleting. Rather play with REAL PEOPLE with a board game in person with my family. ✌🏼 The updates are great, took some getting used to the updated board. I miss the old “victory” and “defeat” screens after winning or losing a game, it felt more celebratory. My main complaint is in regard to watching a video ad to earn a ticket 🎟️ to use to play a new game. The game says you will earn 1 ticket after watching 1 ad but after watching an ad, I don’t earn the ticket. I tried exiting out the app, clearing my tabs and restarting the app and my ticket is still not there. I have to repeat the process 2-3 times before I earn (1) ticket. Kind of a rip off for me and not up to par with the instructions hopefully this gets fixed quick. My husband and I play this game every night after dinner as a way to wind down so it’s a little frustrating and discouraging to use the app.

Developer responded quickly to my concerns. Very impressed with accountability & changing rating to 5 stars. ————————————————————— I really enjoy this game but I have two issues that prevent me from giving more stars. Both issues are costing me credits I paid to actually PLAY the game. 1- in spite of doing updates, I am still experiencing the glitch that ends the game after only one sequence has been completed. In some games, I might complete a sequence and the game continues but the competitor wins upon their completion of a single sequence. It appears that if both players did not update, the glitch is there. 2- often I start a game but the competitor NEVER plays a single chip then times out. I feel I should get my credit back on those occasions. How do I know it’s not a bot just making me use a credit for a game I never got to play? If it really is a player just timing out without a single move, I shouldn’t be penalized a credit. Update: played a few games where opponents get multiple turns? Last game, opponent had 34 chips on board compared to my 18. Obviously no way to win in that scenario. Took a screenshot. What is happening?

Initially rated 3 stars because I lost access to my friends who haven’t updated yet, and it seems totally unfair that any player should have to choose between their “updated” friends and their “not updated” friends. Lowered to one star because 1v1v1 is no longer available and because updated app is not compatible with my phone. I had multiple daily games against my friends and losing the ability to play as a group is a serious detriment. And it’s not compatible. I have an iPhone SE from 2018 and the app is very difficult to navigate with a smaller screen so I’m annoyed I had to update. Why did I have to update if the app wasn’t even going to compatible with my phone? I feel like there are supposed to be additional options visible under “start game” but I can’t see them because my screen is small AND I can’t scroll. This is an accessibility issue. My Sequence app was way more functional for me before it updated. Help, please. Edit: bumping up stars because developer seemed really interested in fixing the bugs in the support chat, and that makes me more optimistic, but it’s gonna take a little bit before the app has my trust back. For all I know, the next update might be even less compatible with my phone.
