...as soon as I saw the board. What a nice change of pace from my addiction to candy crush. The zen music is calming and perfect. I usually turn off game music, but not with Tsuro. Pay attention to the hints before you turn them off. There are several modes of playing: last player on board, most loops, longest path. You can play with 1 to 3 AI players by dragging stones to the squares marked Silly, Clever and Tricky. By dragging additional stones to the board you can use the cool pass 'n' play feature. You can name the players and have them take selfies for easy identification. If you add friends in Game Center all you can do at this time is issue challenges: Master Loopers or Path Builders. You'll want Facebook friends to actually play. I read some are complaining about that and yes it takes a few extra steps but you can find friends for the game. Tsuro Friends on Facebook was started to help players connect. Yes there are some limitations and some things I hope are addressed in future releases like not being able to switch away from solo play to make a move with an opponent and allowing the board to switch between a 3D and 2D view but I have faith the developers will nurture their creation. Spend more than 5 minutes exploring Tsuro and you will find "the game of the path" worthy.

First few times you play, it is very enjoyable but it gets boring after you start beating the "AI" all the time. Fun could last longer if "AI" was more "I"... It may be more fun to play with real people but I'd buy the real board game for that.Update: I tried all 8 [tricky] of them... 😜 still I think it needs more "I"... I will add the remaining two stars but... it'd be nice if the clarity of the board near the far end/corners could be improved; it may get a bit too crowded to see the lines on smaller screens (IPhone 6s) and finally the bubbles that pop before/after each move and cover the board/tiles are annoying... maybe move the board a tiny bit to the right where the piles of tiles are placed and also rotate CW. In fact I don't think that that much space is needed for those piles, they can be placed further away toward the right edge of screen and the size can be scaled down. In general, very good job and thank you for making a very good strategy game available...

So, I downloaded this game with mediocre expectations. Mostly because I wasn't that into board games. I was pleasantly surprised. It was interesting and creative. I would like to propose a change though. It would really make it more fun if there was a "suicide" option. I know that sounds morbid but hear me out. It would add a whole new type of strategy if you could kill yourself on accident. Also if there was no giant warning symbol under a card that would kill you. Another thing that would be cool was that if hitting your opponent would be allowed and just ended in a draw. Pretty much what I'm asking would be to not limit the cards that you are allowed to play by the outcome. I think that it's the player's job to decide if a card would hurt/help them and not the game. I am impressed if you made it this far! If you just scrolled through everything without reading it, for shame. Hope people see this, BYE!
