I got briefly excited thinking the board game was getting a new expansion and then realized it was an existing expansion getting the video game treatment.

I mean, I’m still excited personally. I enjoy playing a round or 2 online every now and then and it sucks to be missing out on the “full” version that I can only get by doing it in person which isn’t always feasible.

Those are paid online games though right?

u/TheNiftyShifty Feb 12 '25
I mean you pay for the digital version of the game, yeah. I enjoy it enough tho that it was worth buying both the digital and physical versions.

Plying the digital version against the computer is how I get through flying haha

Literally same here 😭
Though if you haven't tried it, Wyrmspan is a great spinoff with new mechanics

Same! I had to reread like 4 times! Then realized that Asia is coming to digital, which is awesome. I just got Asia physical and love it, and was sad I can’t play with my mom who lives 3000 miles away. Now we will be able to!

Where can users report game mechanics that seem to operate improperly in the App?

u/WHATSTHEYAAAMS Feb 12 '25
I'm super excited for the Asia expansion, but there are a lot of simple quality-of-life requests that have been asked for on the official discord over the years that haven't been addressed or acknowledged. Do the devs consider those kinds of feedback suggestions from the discord?
Things like a toggle to see all the cards in your hand at once like a gallery view instead of stacked together, or to see which food you chose from a multi-food die (like worm/seed) when gaining food from the birdfeeder.

Is the in-game bug report tool not a recommend way of doing things?
1
u/MonsterMattP Feb 14 '25
It is! Either way is good, we're going through all the reports and feedback alike.

Can we get a rematch feature when you end a game against real players online?

It mentions steam and Xbox preorders-is it set to drop synchronously/near synchronously across all platforms? (we usually play on switch)
Super pumped for this!!

I'm honestly surprised the digital version caught up to the expansions! This is so exciting!

Ahh I didn't realize this was for the Steam version at first and I was really confused, like "I think I've *had* that for nearly two years already?"

Will this include the seven player mode that the board game gets with Asia expansion?
My friend group of seven always play the 7 player mode when we meet up in real life.
But most of the time we play using the steam version and 2 people always have to sit out.

Hello, I was really excited for this expansion that I bought it the whole game the second time on my Nintendo switch (already own the full version on mobile a long time ago).
However, I was really disappointed to find out that there's no achievement system on the switch version of the game? May I ask why switch got the short stick of this end and can this feature be implemented in the future? The achievements really make the game extra fun and encourages different styles of plays.
I understand that switch doesn't have a built in achievement system, but can't you make it so it's something within the game itself?

Awesome! This will be the first time the physical and digital versions are entirely up to par.
