Review
The problem with this game in a nutshell:
The room tiles are tiny. Selecting one doesn't actually show the entire tile. Nor does it enlarge the tile so you can actually see what's on it without crawling into your monitor.
It's a decent game and it works and everything, but it's a terrible digital adaptation. They could've added a counter for each room type too and they didn't do that either. And they want €11 for this?
