I just revolutioned, played 2 cards, and took 2 cards from the card row in the same turn. The only reason i couldn't take a card from the 3 CA slot was that I am currently building the Pyramids.
OK, how did this happen? The only ways I can think of to do that involve Newton and Robespierre, and neither of those is going to be around while you build the Pyramids.

I had Hammurabi in play, played Breakthrough for the Revolution, then took a leader for free, played it with a military action, for which I got a civil action back, which I sued to take another card.

You sued the action at a civil court, I presume.

Do we know if iOS only or also Android?

Somebody on the Facebook page said it's for both. But this is the internet, so I don't trust it 100%. Still, I trust it at least 90% considering it was on the Czech Games page. I don't know if the person posting was anyone in authority though.

But I'm hyped.

both, I asked on Twitter.

Heh, as did I, and got a response this morning.  I just hope it's reasonably priced...

Played it during testing, it's pretty good. The only thing that's missing is a campaign like Galaxy Trucker (it does have solo scenearios though)

So 10 bucks is high but not terrible... how many of y'all are likely to get it, so I know if I'll have people to play against?

And I assume play is asynchronous?

I was hoping for an introductory price like they did with Galaxy Trucker. They probably know that they don't need much enticement to get people to buy the app. The game itself is plenty enticing.

I'll probably pull the trigger because I like to reward brilliance. I haven't yet though.

OK, screw it.  I've pulled the trigger.  I'll let y'all know whether I show up as Kirian or what :)

OK, the tutorial is brilliant so far.

"You don't have any resources to build the pyramids, but you can spend 5 [crystals] to speed it up.  Do that now!"

"Ha, no, this isn't THAT sort of game."

Also, Vlaada is a leader for the tutorial, and is bickering with Aristotle.

--------

Also, the interface is actually really slick and intuitive in a way I hadn't expected.  Even on a small phone screen.

Lovely. I still haven't pulled the trigger yet, but I may do so rather than wait for a sale since Vlaada's gotta eat. And those other people who worked on it too.

It seems like it has gotten good reviews, German version will be released next month, I will probably wait until then.

I got the app because CGE's Galaxy Trucker app was so good. (I hadn't played TtA before, because I wouldn't normally play a game of this weight.) It's great of course. I don't know if I'll ever make use of the online function, but it's still nice to play vs AI to see what the game is about.

There are so many things about CGE's digital strategy that I like. Some that I wish Dominion would've done:
  • Paid made-for-mobile app, while (free) desktop online version stays up.
  • In app, everything that can conceivably be tracked, is. (It goes way beyond what the drheld extension for isotropic could do.)
