A card drafting game for two! Play the AI, or pass-and-play with a friend! Tides of Time is a card drafting game for two players that takes place over three rounds. On your turn, choose one card from those in your hand, then pass your hand to your opponent. Each card is one of five suits and a scoring objective. Once all cards have been taken, players calculate their scores based on the cards drafted. Between rounds, you will choose one card to keep for future rounds, and one card to remove from the game. After three rounds the player with the most points wins! This is a long-awaited digital adaptation of the card game from Kristian Čurla and Portal Games. With this version, you can challenge your friends with pass-and-play or compete against one of the three levels of AI. Unique challenges are also included to keep you on your toes! Reviews for Tides of Time: “A great looking two player game that is quick to play and not too heavy on the brain, but with definite scope for strategy.” – Nick Pitman “This game is not complex at all, but it can be a challenge to master. Easily picked up as a filler with non-gamer friends and gamers alike. Highly recommended!” – Tabletop Together “Tides of Time from Kristian Čurla is a marvel in minimalist design, creating tons of tension from only eighteen cards in a game that lasts no more than twenty minutes.” – Eric Martin, Board Game Geek “The more I play, the more I enjoy it.” – Zee Garcia, The Dice Tower “Very thinky and quiet, but also very interesting. Staying in my collection for sure.” – Joel Eddy, Drive Thru Review Featuring: - Faithful digital adaptation of the Portal Games card game from Kristian Čurla - Every card matters in this deceptively simple game - Local pass-and-play for fun on the go - Three levels of AI to challenge - Unique challenges to overcome
Cards too small on iPhone
This looks like an interesting game but it only plays in landscape mode on iPhone and the writing and symbols on the cards are way too small to read (even when zoomed) on my iPhone 11. This might work better on iPad or a larger screen phone but on mine, it’s basically unplayable.
United StatesDon’t buy it.
Don’t buy it. Doesn’t matter how good the interface is. It’s 2021 and it doesn’t have online play. Tides of Time is great, and it deserves love. Too bad this app isn’t helping anything. Will happily change my review if this feature is finally added (if the online play is asynchronous).
United StatesGreat game but
Been playing to a long time. After resetting the game and starting from scratch I notice that the game character will win and get points when it shouldn't. I’ve noticed it mainly when I use the King’s Nest. In the beginning levels I win ties. In the higher levels the game wins. It even managed to get a 130+ points but me having the King’s nest should of prevented anything past 50. Has anyone come across this?
United StatesAttractive but needs to slow down
Needs some time to review scoring of individual cards, instead of rapidly moving to game over screen.
United StatesSolid game!
I like Tides of Time a lot. It has interesting strategic gameplay plus gorgeous art and great music which make it a solid game. Hello Devs - The rule book has several typographic errors. “Copper” Age is misspelled as “Chopper” Age at least twice. The Silver Age and Golden Age sections also contain errors. It seems odd that the AI opponents are named as they are. The “Easy” AI avatar is a young girl named “John” and the “Hard” AI avatar is an old woman named “Harold” ?? Strange.
United StatesGood tutorial + easy to play
The app is polished. The tutorial is a great way to learn the game. Once you get through the tutorial the gameplay is just smooth as you would expect it like the physical card game!
United StatesFun game but some small improvements would make app better
This is a fun little set collecting, pick and pass game for two players. There’s not a ton of variability to the cards so it likely won’t become an all time favorite. But the small number of cards makes it easy to learn while the variability with the three ages and requirement to keep and trash one card each round adds to the replay ability. One small change to the app would, I think, be a big improvement, especially for newer players. It would be great to be able to pause after the points are totaled each round so that you can see what cards scored which points. As it is, the points are scored for each card and then that screen immediately goes away, there’s no way to review what scored and what didn’t. This makes seeing the impact of trying out different strategies and understanding how points were scored much more difficult. Also, the AI ratings don’t seem to be consistent. The “medium” difficulty seems much easier than the “easy” difficulty AI. Adjusting so that the “easy” AI truly is easy would, again, be more helpful and less frustrating to less experienced players.
