Comments on Colonist for Android

★★★★☆ Nichole Stough · Jun 26, 2026
Best C a t an n app I've found. However, there is a glitch where you don't receive your deserved cards on some roles. Gameplay moves quickly, so it probably happens more than I think, but I've clocked it a handful of times. No robber blocking the spot, and the tile will highlight showing its number was rolled, but you won't get your cards. Very annoying. Also, pausing a game against bots almost always glitches out and you have to start over. So don't pause. Still a good app.

I only wish buttons were spaced apart more, or landscape mode. I'm an adult with adult sized fingers. Lol
★★★★★ Red Amber · May 17, 2026
Its super fun but there are this bugs, in post game when you look at stats or if you look at the replay, after 1–2 minutes out of nowhere the game throws you into main menu :(
★★★★☆ Mike Dyne · May 16, 2026
Catan fans, if you just want base game 1v1 or 4 players, this is it. If you want expansions or different maps, the subscription cost is wildly expensive.
★★☆☆☆ James Smith · Jun 29, 2026
The game is fun and easy to learn, the app is well-designed. If you pause a game against bots there is a 1hr timer however you get kicked off the game after a few minutes and can't rejoin
★★☆☆☆ snasturbate · May 7, 2026
Better than catan. But IDK why it's so hard to have random dice rolls. Why for the love of god, do you all destroy your games by influencing dice rolls as game management. No one ever asked for this, no one ever liked or enjoyed this, it makes absolutely no sense. Yet here we are, difficulty in this game = number of 7 the AI will roll in a row at games end and number of their tiles will hit at end game. I've had games of over 18x7s, 2x9s 8×11s. Nothing I have actually experienced in real life
