    At this point, I have no problem saying that developer TheCodingMonkeys has me hook, line and sinker.

    While other board games remain content to try to boil down or otherwise crowbar their game on to the iOS platform, Lost Cities feels completely at home thanks to its casual simplicity.

    Solid card-based strategy and tactics result in a surefire hit for fans of the Catan persuasion.

    No matter how different the results, every game feels pretty much the same, and that really cripples its long-term appeal.
