Description of Scythe: Digital Edition

In an alternate reality in 1920s Europa, it's been several years since the "Great War", but the ashes of the conflict are still hot and the war is entering a new phase. The first conflict saw the emergence of some incredible engines of war known as Mechs. Built by "The Factory", an independent city-state which has since become the object of everyone's desire, these technological monstrosities roam the snowy landscapes of Europa. Be the hero of one of the five factions – Saxony Empire, Crimean Khanate, Rusviet Union, Polania Republic or Nordic Kingdom – and become the richest and most powerful nation in all of Europa during these dark times! To assure the victory of your people, you will need to explore and conquer new territories, enlist new recruits and deploy your forces by building formidable and terrifying combat Mechs. Replay history in a fictional past full of mechanical engines and technology, where each choice you make will be critical. Choose your battles with care, because in Scythe, victory is achieved with and for the people!
Gameplay:
• Asymmetry: every player starts the game with different resources (energy, coins, keen combat sense, popularity…), a different starting location and a secret objective. The starting positions are specifically set to contribute to the uniqueness of every faction and the asymmetrical nature of the game.
• Strategy: Scythe offers players almost complete control over their fate. The only elements of chance apart from each player's individual secrete objective card are the Encounter cards, which players draw to interact with the citizens of newly explored lands. Combat is also handled by way of choice; no luck or chance is involved.
• Engine Building: Players can improve their construction abilities to become more efficient, build structures that improve their position on the map, enlist new recruits into their faction, activate mechs to dissuade opponents from invading and expand their borders to reap greater types and quantities of resources. This aspect creates a feeling of energy and progression over the course of the entire game. The order in which players get to develop their economy and technologies adds to the unique feel of every game, even when playing as the same faction several times.
Features:
• Official adaptation of the award-winning board game
• 4X strategy game (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate)
• Customize the mat to sharpen your strategy
• Choose a specialty for unique games: Agriculturalist, Industrialist, Engineer, Patriot or Mechanic.

    Okay, I rated 1 star at first, because the game simply did not work at all on my (more than well required) phone: It was completely frozen on a still image, no matter how much fiddling around in the app settings. However, they must've fixed it, because after a week of reinstalling daily, it works. The game is a little pricey, but it is Scythe! It runs well and the game is fully strategic. AI is rigid, but fair. Excellent board game overall and probably a hard one to program. 8/10; It's solid.

    An incredible digital adaption of one of the best board games around. The art work, the music and sound fx all come together really well to give off those Scythe feels. Playing against bots is a fab way to learn the rules and even pick up one or two things you might have been doing wrong with the board game. It also offers online or local multiplayer. Highly addictive stuff!

    Good game, terrible app. You need to be able to reverse moves while it's your turn if you haven't revealed new information. It is way too frustrating for your entire game to be ruined by a bad move that you were not trying to do. I'm done playing until they fix that aspect and I can't recommend it. Also if the developers are watching, it needs turn notifications.

    Good version of a great game. Some minor issues. Albion mech textures seem to have been fixed. Load times in the game lobby have become a bit too long for some reason.

    Great game, but around 3 or so months ago on Android, the game stopped sending notifications, and that really kills the game. What happened? Scythe is not even an option in the notifications settings. Also, if you look at apps, the notifications are permanently blocked, and the option is grayed out, so you can not turn it back on at all. Again, the lack of notifications kills this game.

    Some issues, occasional connection problems and steady amount of crashes at least once per hour. Albion mech textures seem to have been fixed. Load times in the game lobby have become super long for some reason.
