Comments on Ark Nova for Android

★★★★★ Frank Stalker · Jun 23, 2025

I love the board game. App has been great so far. One glitch that keeps coming up for me is I'll select the animals action, but the confuses it for the cards action. Every time, as soon as I get animals upgraded, and it's at level 5.

★★★★☆ Johnatan Gonzalez · Jul 6, 2025

Love the game in general (physical, BGA adaptation and now mobile digital), however, about 90% of the time I am unable to play a game against an AI as the starting cards don't show up after selecting which board to start with.

★★★★★ Matthew Dolman · Jun 28, 2025

Great app version of a great board game. This implementation is easy to use and has lots of functionality right out of the box

★★★★★ Tricia Van Gaal · Jul 12, 2025

So excited to have a digital format now! Phone ui has been great during the tutorial

★★☆☆☆ Joshua Gouge · Jan 4, 2026

I'd planned on not purchasing any more of these games because none of them fit the screen of my phone. I figured I'd try this newer game, simply getting a refund if it also didn't fit. I started the game and was extremely happy I was still seeing the game fit the screen perfectly... I turned off the game and the reasonable time to get a refund pass me by. I turned on the game today, happy it seemed to still fit. That is, up until the 2nd scene of the tutorial, and also during every game.

★★☆☆☆ Brady England · Jun 20, 2025

Great game and tutorial, but unplayable due to tiny text and tiny buttons that are so small they are hard to press.

★★☆☆☆ Florian Hohenleitner · Oct 27, 2025

Pretty awful adaption of an amazing board game. There are certain scenarios, e.g. when you draw a card and need to discard when you can't open other board elements properly as they won't show since the card discard logic seems to take priority. On mobile almost unplayable. No fun. I'd recommend playing in BGA instead.
