This is my favorite game on android. I play it asynchronously with a family member regularly. It would be 5 stars, but a recent android update broke push notifications, making it much harder to complete a game before the whole game times out, at least for me. I will raise this back to a 5 when notifications return.

Excellent app for the game with a couple bugs, but this has been in constant use for friendly multiplayer games for ages. Sometime in the last couple months push notifications for multiplayer have completely stopped, seemingly out of nowhere. I have scoured the app notification settings and reinstalled the app to no avail. Unfortunate because the game and app are otherwise both so good!
