Best Board Game Implementation Yet!

If you aren't a Catan fan before playing this game, you WILL be after! The AI is built to be of reasonable difficulty for the average player, without being over the top "pro" level. The multi-player is a blast. The 3D environment(s) are amazing to take in. And those hand gestures you see in the video are possible in this gear VR version too!! Overall- this game is well polished and LOADS of fun to play both yourself and with friends (mixed AI/friends game is also possible). You will NOT be disappointed in buying at full price. Note that the physical board game usually costs 50+ dollars... This game is a steal! The developers are also super responsive, so if you nicely ask for help or just want to say how awesome of a job they've done- they will hear you loud and clear. �

Wow exactly like the game!

Got to play with my brother and 2 strangers with VOIP, funny avatars that make hand guestures, and a cool environment with music. Really recommend this game and it's the 1st, that I know of, that you can join with either a Rift and or Gear.

AI Against me ..

I ALREADY READ ANOTHER GUY COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AI players. He Is completely right.. The game doesn't even give you a nice chance to get cards.. but wait the AI GETS THE SAME FU...ING NUMBER AGAIN AND AGAIN.... I TRIED TO PLACE MY HOUSE ON THE SAME NUMBERS OF THE AI players And miraculously the 12 or 2 appears on the dice �. And the robber is In my number blocking me plus I don't even have any fu..king cards..... COME ONNN.. THEY NEED TO FIX THE ROLLING DICES FOR A NO COMPETITIVE PURPOSE.. AND THE AI trade whatvthey need.. No a fun game!!!!! No online player only Sunday nights. FIX THE GAME AND DON'T TELL THE SAME THING AS THE OTHER GUY.. I KNOW THAT THE AI NEED TO BE AGAINST US, BUT F... KEEP IT EQUAL.

Best board game available

This arguably is the ONLY board game available, with the exception of simplistic games like checkers or chess. CATAN does it right! It gives me the opportunity to sit with my mother who lives half a country away and share a good game and a laugh. More board game producing companies should take advantage of VR.

Frustrating

The game is great but my girlfriend and I can’t connect and play. That was the sole purpose we bought the game. We choose start game and we go to add each other and our names don’t light up to choose. I’ve messaged the customer service and I got an initial response but have yet to get a follow up after he asked what system I was using after I included it in the initial message. Extremely aggravating!
