The xbox version is the same freaking way. There is no way a 7 is rolled as many times as it is and by all the computer players, never you. Then the theif always steal your cards and blocks your resources. If you get 7 points the computer players start attacking only you, and they always win. I have played this like 10 times and have never won once. It is not a fun game, it is very frustrating and annoying as hell.

THIS GAME SUCKS SOOOOOOOO MUCH. It is so rigged it's not even funny. DON"T BUY IT if you are used to playing the real game. The computer will stack up it's rolls against you and it isn't even fun. In the computers 50 or so rolls 1 player got the thief 27 times and another got him 14. I got him ONCE! Oh and when they do "randomly" select the resource. It is ALWAYS the one that will hurt you the most. I had 1 timber 3 brick and 4 grain and it chose the brick. If it hadn't have done the 3 TIMES IN A ROW I would have won the game but it kept me from being able to steal longest road from itself. THIS GAME IS SO RIGGED IT PISSES ME OFF THAT THEY PASS IT OFF LIKE IT IS EVEN FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like the game has been submitted for approval to the app store.

They also have a screenshot on their site:

I am on board with agreeing that the graphics need to be improved. I play the OSX version a bit, and have noticed that the resource files are easy to get to, so I may replace the stock artwork with my own renderings... I would imagine the same could be done with the iPhone game.

Also - what's with the couple of posters - one claiming Catan takes 2.5 hours, and another claiming it takes 4 hours to play a game? Basic Settlers takes 45min to AT MOST 1.5 hours... That's part of the appeal of the game... in the time it takes you to play, for instance 1 game of Monopoly you could play 6 games of Catan.

If this is a port I hope it's a port of the XBOX Live! version and not the Catan: First Island game Exocet already published to other mobile devices. If they want to add expansions and what not later, fine, but get the first release right.

Well, I guess a pass and play game for car, train, and plane trips would be good.
