Playing on your phone

I would like to be able to play Dominion on my android phone. However, I haven't been able to find a browser that completely understands all the fancy real-time things on Isotropic.

Do you play on Iso on your phone? How?

I just tried my iPhone with the text only version. It worked fine, updated instantly. I only played a few turns of a solitaire game so as not to annoy anyone. There were quite a few mis-clicks, things like buying a copper instead of a silver, just because the buttons are so small.

But it worked fine, and should be playable.

Edit: Just played against myself, iPhone in one hand, laptop in the the other. It was fine. I only bought one card I didn't mean to on the phone, a Navigator. But that turned out OK, because I found out that you cannot re-order the cards when returning them to your deck. I assume this would be the case for other times when this is an option, (Black Market, Stash, etc.)

I play often on my iPod in Study Hall in school. I've gotten pretty used to the button sizes so I rarely misclick. As said earlier, the only problem is that you can't reorder. Oh, and I use Safari on my iPod.

I've had the script hang on me on both a Palm and and Android. This was playing solitaire, so that I didn't upset anyone.

Also, the frames are not always laid out nicely

I've have played all of my first 75 games on my I-Touch in text mode, it works very nicely. Of course you can't mouse over cards to read them, but I have nearly all 135 cards memorized at this point. You can click the cards pop out button though.

Here's a tip: watch the page loading icon in the top left of your phone browser. It should be constantly loading. Occasionally it stops and then you must click reload page. The first reload click brings up a reduced page so I usually need to click twice.

I tried using Image mode at first but the top few cards are cut off and you can't purchase them.
