I think it was named 1848 or 1868, (something) And Robber Barons. I played it well into the 2000's. I'm sure one of the other old timers will remember the name.

It was just an excuse to not implement it. Like when they said the iPad version would never go universal cause ticket to ride can't fit on the iPhone's screen... Then refused to talk about it again after the iPhone version was released. Or when they said iPad wouldn't get async because the game would take to long but then did it for iPhone. DoW have a bad habit of telling users what they should want, contrary to all logic or evidence offered. So now: iPhone version has Game Center Multiplayer with Async iPad version gets Days of Wonder Account Multiplayer (vs iPads, PC, and Macs) but matches are Live only. Greyskull Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2009 5,588 1 38 Photographer/Social Sciences adjunct/sweet sweet l Fort Lauderdale #7 Greyskull, Apr 26, 2013 That's crap...and certainly deters me from purchasing the ipad version, which I was just thinking of doing.

Eventually, when the iPad version goes on sale again I'll pick that up. It for now this little free morsel is nice to have. Anyway, the iPad version is definitely a solid port and the AI is competitive enough to fill in for the occasional game. zdn1042 Well-Known Member May 10, 2013 642 0 0 #10 zdn1042, Mar 8, 2014 I haven't played any board games yet on my device.

I would buy an iOS port in a heartbeat, even with the original 320x200 resolution. 1830 is part of the 18xx series that flow from Francis Tresham's 1829. Yes, those and Ticket to Ride are about railroads, but the latter owes alot more to Alan Moon's own Elfenroads, Santa Fe, Airlines, and Elfenland. Anyhow, it's a shame about the developer's positions on universal, iPad, and iPhone versions of the Ticket to Ride pair. But it seems they have fallen in line with their recently released Splendor. sinagog Well-Known Member Aug 15, 2014 937 0 0 #13 sinagog, Oct 21, 2015 Gah, it tales me so long to work out what I'm doing with board games, but this is definitely fun now that I do. Not that phased about upscaling to my ipad, either. Doesn't seem to matter here. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
