About this game
Race for the Galaxy is a strategy boardgame where players advance their empire by playing cards to build technological developments or to settle planets. Its core mechanic is a phase choosing game. Players secretly and simultaneously determine which one of seven phases they will lock in, all reveal at once, then execute the phases in order. Will you build an engine to ramp up VP generation on cheapo production planets? Will you invest in exploration and settle rare and valuable VP rich planets? Or will you rush a military conquest to cut off your opponents before they have a chance to develop their strategy.

Love this game except a few things. Graphics is too gloomy and outdated. the UI isn't responsive, it doesn't fit nicely and has black margins on the left and right, why not take full advantage of the screen? Unnecessary slow animations. When long tapping cards to see their details, the zoom animation is too slow. For new players they need to read a lot and this quickly becomes irritating. Scoring system is confusing. When calculating it for some reason drops the scores and updates after.

It really, really needs notifications when it is waiting for you to do your turn. I have had at least two games just stop for running out of time because other players had not played. The UI is poor - on my pad, to touch something I must touch above the item. Like many here, I love the game - it emulates the card game very well, and the AI is very good, so please sort these problems out. It is not fair to charge so much, and then move on to doing other games without fixing this one. Finally, would it be possible to have this linked so that I can get it on Steam for my PC without having to pay twice?

Great game, some frustrating UI issues. Lack of zoom/pan is annoying. Cards often move around while you are trying to drag them. I very frequently accidentally place or discard the wrong card. If it is a free placement then there is no confirmation dialogue which means I have had countless games ruined. A simple undo the last action button or ensuring that all placements and payments (even if free) required confirmation would fix this.
