Comments on Hnefatafl for Android

★★★★★ Karsten Keese · Oct 8, 2024

This is a fantastic implementation of Hnefatafl, offered at a fair one-time purchase price. It comes with lots of rule variants for different player strengths and tutorials for each of them. Nevertheless, this is a game at least as challenging and complex as Chess, so a list of strategy guides in several languages with links in the 'About' section (or wherever there is a good place for a resource list) would be kind. The computer opponent should be improved continuously and add some more themes.

★★★★★ Byron Eugene · Dec 26, 2023

This app is the best implementation of the tafl genre of board games that I've ever seen. There's almost infinite customization over the rules of the game, every size of board from 7×7 to 19×19. Multiplayer also works without any issues at all. I highly recommend this app to anyone who wants to play Tafl.

★★☆☆☆ Richard LeBreton · Oct 3, 2023

The issue I have straight away is that in this app the king is captured by two pieces (like any of the warrior pieces). Every set of rules I've read the king must be captured by surround all 4 sides.

★☆☆☆☆ Ronald 'RV' Van Hook · Jan 4, 2025

The developers do NOT know how tafl is played. A king must be captured from 4 sides for the attacker to win. Once the king reaches a corner, that side wins. This game allows a king to be captured from only 2 sides, and does not allow the kings side to win once a corner is obtained. Translation... This is NOT tafl.

Used to love this game, but the AI is impossible to go against while playing attacker now.

★☆☆☆☆ Josh Osenbaugh · Jan 20, 2023

Sells your financial info. There is no reason this app should even access any of your data. Edit for reply to dev: In the data safety section. It says "This app shares the following info with third parties: Location (approximate), Financial info (purchase history), and Messages (in game messages)" The app looks nice and all but I just don't understand why a game would share or have access to some of that info.
