What players say

94% of 12,024 reviews are positive · 92% of 56 in the last 30 days

Players praise the bird illustrations, calls, calm atmosphere, and convenience compared with setting up the physical game. The most common complaint is a cumbersome interface that makes cards and board information difficult to view; players also criticize the tutorial, AI turns, and unreliable friend invites.
