You find yourself in rustic, pre-modern Tuscany, where you’ve inherited a meager vineyard. You own a few plots of land, an old crush pad, a tiny cellar, 3 workers…and the dream of owning the best winery in Italy.Your job is to allocate your workers and helpful visitors to complete various tasks throughout the year. Each season is different on a vineyard, so the workers have different tasks they can take care of in the summer and winter. There’s competition over those tasks, and often the first worker to arrive at each one has an advantage over the rest.
Using those workers and visitors, you can expand your vineyard by building structures, planting vines, and filling wine orders as you work towards the goal of owning the most successful winery in Tuscany.

DIGIDICED is my favourite board game adapter, and this is a port that I literally asked them and Stonemaier to make happen (I'm sure that had no bearing on the reality of it actually happening, but I'm glad it happened just the same). However, I should have listened to the other reviews. The AI is EXTREMELY slow. I mean. Really. It's brutal. I hope they fix this, since I can't get a refund now. I think it'd be faster for me to set up the physical game and play against the Automa than it is to play on the app, and that's just frustrating. Some niceties I'd request for future updates would be: the full Tuscany board, the option to see coloured meeples instead of realistic-ish people holding coloured baskets, and just overall speed increases everywhere. I haven't explored the full app yet, so I'm not sure if the Automa is implemented or not, but I suspect that would be one way to speed up the AI opponent, since there'd be virtually no calculations to do. If it's not in there, it'd be nice to have as an option. Anyhow, overall, this is a great game, and this adaptation has promise. It just needs a bit more polish, which I really, really hope DIGIDICED gives it. It deserves it.

i liked the real game so i bought this game. it's ok..but the turns are SUPER SLOW. there should either be a 'speed up' animation or 'skip' animation overall.. the 'history' of actions is also confusing.. i'd rather have something listed like Board Game Arena does where i can just read what the actions were taken instead of fancy infographics showing what worker was used to place in what location. the UI is not very easy to understand.. if i were a new player that has never played Viticulture before, i would find understanding the game/UI difficult.

Not good if you haven't played the board game before. Poor interface with no icon descriptions or direction requires you to be VERY familiar with game setup and play otherwise you'll be lost from the start. Lack of assisted play-through tutorial means you'll always be seeking reference for where to click and what to do next. Bringing up the menu for help will end your game and bring you back to the title screen without a clear way to go back to your game. Massive improvements needed. Ouch.

Overall it's a pretty good port of the board game. Bots put up a decent fight. A few critiques though: * The tutorial does not teach you everything. But you'll figure it all out during your first game if you try * The UI can take some getting used to. At first it's kinda hard to know what's going on, but again after your first game you'll figure it out * I would love to see more customization in order to boost replayability. For example: make the number of victory points to win configurable

I adore the board game, but I gotta say, I'm not a fan of the app. It needs a lot of improvement. There were times where I didn't know if I was looking at my board or the AI's. The UI gets in the way of making decisions. There are redundant animations (if you harvest a field with a red and white wine, it shows an animation for each with a fade out/in for each). It's disappointing as it's such a great game. But, also playing the Charterstone game on Steam, I'm finding similar UI issues--for instance the backspace key takes you back a screen instead of, you know, deleting a character. It appears that Stonemaier Games puts in a lot of effort to make sure the details of the board games really shine, but the same level of care is not matched in the apps. I was looking forward to getting Wingspan for the Switch later this year, but I hold off. Devs: If you wan screenshots and/or easier to do a video chat to demo some issues, let me know.

The AI is painfully slow, often taking longer than a human player would to complete a turn. It's particularly egregious the times it does it when there are no actions for it to take. Graphically it's a good representation of the board game, but there are a few non intuitive UI touches and occasions where it asks you to confirm something that you'd assume doesn't need confirming (this a criticism you can level at many board game apps). At this initial release, it feels like the first step towards a great app rather than blowing you away out the gate. It's not a hopeless case, just a little bit less than what the ideal Viticulture app would be. Update: The UI confirmation can be turned off in options. Also you can in theory make the AI play faster, but I haven't really seen that much difference in its play speed yet (i.e. fast is still too slow).

A functional app of one of my favourite board games. UI issues still remain - e.g. the cards the AI players use flash up on the screen too fast to read, to do multiple actions of the same type (e.g. make three wine tokens) you have to confirm the first one, then confirm that you want to make another, etc... With each step opening a new display and closing the last. I also experienced some graphical issues. The AI is painfully slow. Having said that, it is still playable and enjoyable.

Overall very good implementation of a tricky board game, except for two things. 1. It crashes often, though it does recover the game state, and 2. it has sound on by default in the homescreen, and you can't turn it off, so whenever you restart the app you get music.
