For the most part, it feels like the game makes you land on the most valuable opponent space, costing you a lot of cash. Also the AI definitely collude at the higher difficulty levels, and gauge you whenever you try to make deals with them; it’s not competitive pricing, it’s “let’s gang up on the real player bc that’s the one getting us Ad rev.” I think the game would be more fun if the rolls were more random rather than targeted and if the AI actually tried to compete against each other.
Update: The AI has been fixed but the ads still offer no way of closing them after they’ve run. I understand the Developer wants to make $$ & I CAN afford to pay for a cup of coffee but why should I if the game doesn’t work? Fix the ad issue & I’ll reconsider my review The AI keeps telling me it has a trade proposal but never follows through when I choose to view the trade. Similar thing happens when the AI offers to act of any of it’s suggestions for me, (ie: mortgage, unmortgage, etc) the game just tells me to roll the die or end my turn. Amending rating to 1 star. Second time I started a new game I started running into unavoidable ads. First time through I was given the option to watch or not to watch, I hate ads so I always chose “no”. This time I wasn’t given the option to not watch the ads but after watching all the way through I was unable to get back to the game. The “x” close option wouldn’t work & I had to force close the app. Twice. Ads are a hard stop for me, I’ve deleted this game.
Great game. Two improvements I can think of. The ability to have the AI difficulty be randomly assigned and +/- for settings changes instead of the dial.
