I recently got into Catan and found the game very interesting. So I made an online account on colonist. Honestly a big mistake. I played for hours, learning the game fully and creating a strategy. If only I'd known it would be pointless. The dice rolls are rigged. Literally, I'm not even saying that because I lose. I see other constantly flooding in resources while I barely get any. No matter what number I pick and if I do get resources. A 7 lands and I have to discard. I have never played a game where the dice are so heavily against me. The game wants to you to lose so you keep playing. Don't waste your time like I did.

the random dice algorithm is genuinely insane and makes the entire catan strategy of placing based on pips useless. I'll have critical early game development periods where a 3 out rolls a 6 by a large margin and at that point the other player is too ahead in production. The dice variance is generally just terrible for something that's a knock off of the actual franchise.

Completely tilted games. If you are winning too many 1v1 games in a row you'll lose as many in a row as you just won no matter how good your placements are and the games won't even be close. Take away the favoring dice and it would be a great game.

Worst game I've ever played. Dice are completely rigged and absolute buns. This game is awful and needs new owners

pure $ grab, the cost makes no sense algorithmic dice will make you rage quit

Everything about it is terrible: the dice, the players, and it's a copyright lawyers wetdream - total ripoff of Catan, which is NOT public domain.

used to be fun, now they created an algorithm to control the rolls. same rolls after same moves

the "7" annoyes a lot
