I'll update my review to a recommend once the game actually reliably works. My very first game against AI I had to forfeit the game because the AI simply would not pass its turn--even quitting the game and reloading it and then resuming the game would not fix this. Pretty crappy to make it all the way to generation 8 and then have to abandon the game over something like that.

Then just now three of my friends and I were trying to do a four-player game; one could not join because he was getting an error message about needing to be online (which he was??? because you know he was chatting with us). The other three of us pressed ahead and then we kept having issues where it was my turn yet it was showing me that it was one of their turns (sometimes after the "other player has taken their turn" prompt, sometimes not). Initially quitting the game and rejoining fixed this but eventually rejoining the game was just indefinitely hanging.

So...yeah. Kind of hard to recommend the game when there's such fundamental fatal flaws like this that should have been caught before release. It's not like these are weird edge cases. The game is just fundamentally broken. To name another issue I've had, hitting escape to back out of, say, my card view will result in a nonresponsive grayed-out UI that can only be resolved by exiting and then resuming the game.
