## Review summary

Overall, The Isle of Cats on iOS looks and plays like the physical game with solid AI/family modes and some online play. Repeated complaints focus on lack of asynchronous/local multi options for the main game, missing visibility of key state like remaining fish, frequent bugs/disconnections, and a gatekeeping price relative to the user base.

### Pros

- Beautiful visuals and a faithful digital rendering that feels like the physical board game.
- AI and family modes provide enjoyable solo play and practice.
- Online multiplayer option exists for playing with others.

### Cons

- No asynchronous/turn-based online play, and no pass-and-play for the main game.
- Remaining fish/ fish counters not easily visible during gameplay.
- Bugs, glitches, and disconnections hinder play (cards getting stuck, abrupt disconnects).
- Perceived high price given a small online user base.
