Scotland Yard App Reviews

105 add

More informative endings please!

Would like better endings ... Its nice to be able to dwell on where mr x was caught Also, I played network and the iPhone I was using hit 20% battery life, and the game kicked me out for that. Network play needs better support for temporary disconnections.

GUI needs work

For an expensive game, and high reviews, I expected a much better user interface. Instead: Its hard to read the map. Its difficult to click the buttons. Easy to make a mistake, slow, laborious. Animations of player moves should scroll the map... Etc. Very bad UI. The rest of the game is very good; but for the price I expected a game UI to rival Carcassonne, and this is the opposite.

No regrets.

Would recommend to anyone whos ever enjoyed the board game. well, anyone who enjoys boardgames in general.

Scotland Yard

Fun game but not worth the money.

Fun but missing features

This is a fun game but is missing a key feature. The game needs a replay mode where, at the end of the game, the detectives get to see what Mr. X did to attempt to evade them. Were the detectives guesses right? This would be a fun feature for learning the game. Great integration with game center and multiplayer. Great translation from table top to ipad. I recommend the game.

Clever

Clever game. We recently purchased the board game and subsequently purchased this app. The app is versatile, allowing pass and play, challenging the CPU as either Mr.X or a detective (your choice) and other options that we choose not to use. In the end, a good game that encourages strategic play.

Quality game

Aside from some bizarre AI, this is a well done version of the board game.

Awesome!

Its unbelievable great, but sometimes its kind of too small to play on the iPhones ( 3.5 inches display ). Anyway its unbelievable remarkable on the iPads !!! Love it !!!!!!

Great.

Wouldnt work at first. After a few tries Game Center kicked in and it got going. Great game. Its difficult on the iPhone, iPad is perfect.

Fun

Just like the board game. Very enjoyable.

Love this Game....

Played this game when it came out as a board game, and had to re-buy it because it got dog eared and lost pieces. I recently downloaded it on my Iphone and having a great time. The only thing i can possibly see as a next step would be "Scotland Yard International", where they go to various cities around the world and have a similar set up, tracking "Mr.Xs" across the globe. ...Dom...

Awesome

This was one of my favorite board games , now I dont have to setup very good game awesome digital representation!

Great game

Fun game but when trying to find mr x the computer only uses taxi. Could there be away to have different levels of difficulty in the next update. Love the game and a lot of fun to play. Just like the real thing.

Tutorial doesnt work. Rules are hard to read

Tutorial doesnt work. Rules are hard to read

Very nice game !

Very nice! But need more player online or both online. And add a option for the apple tv for other player can see only the map on tv

Not enough players

I bought this game because I heard about the board game. There is no players to play with online. So I gave them $6 to have an icon on my screen. SO FUN!! Why is there no computer players? I will be asking for my money back.

Kids love it

My kids love this game. They particularly love the suspense and chase of trying to find Mr X. The only thing I can think of to improve it is to show the location of Mr X on turn 1...without knowing where he is the first 3 turns are just moving around. Excellent game.

Too Slow

The game takes too much time showing where the AI detectives are moving to. When I play as mr. x I spend 80% of my time waiting for my turn.

Pretty good

Its lots of fun. I think the AI cheats a bit. A little too lucky.

Worth the price

I play many hours and i will continue, nice game!
