About Tides of Time: The Board Game
Tides of Time is a card drafting game for two players that takes place over three rounds. On your turn, choose one card from those in your hand, then pass your hand to your opponent. Each card is one of five suits and a scoring objective. Once all cards have been taken, players calculate their scores based on the cards drafted. Between rounds, you will choose one card to keep for future rounds, and one card to remove from the game. After three rounds the player with the most points wins!
This is a long-awaited digital adaptation of the card game from Kristian Čurla and Portal Games. With this version, you can challenge your friends with pass-and-play or compete against one of the three levels of AI. Unique challenges are also included to keep you on your toes!
Reviews for Tides of Time:
“A great looking two player game that is quick to play and not too heavy on the brain, but with definite scope for strategy.” – Nick Pitman
“This game is not complex at all, but it can be a challenge to master. Easily picked up as a filler with non-gamer friends and gamers alike. Highly recommended!” – Tabletop Together
“Tides of Time from Kristian Čurla is a marvel in minimalist design, creating tons of tension from only eighteen cards in a game that lasts no more than twenty minutes.” – Eric Martin, Board Game Geek
“The more I play, the more I enjoy it.” – Zee Garcia, The Dice Tower
“Very thinky and quiet, but also very interesting. Staying in my collection for sure.” – Joel Eddy, Drive Thru Review
Featuring:
- Faithful digital adaptation of the Portal Games card game from Kristian Čurla
- Every card matters in this deceptively simple game
- Local pass-and-play for fun on the go
- Three levels of AI to challenge
- Unique challenges to overcome

Cards too small on iPhone
This looks like an interesting game but it only plays in landscape mode on iPhone and the writing and symbols on the cards are way too small to read (even when zoomed) on my iPhone 11. This might work better on iPad or a larger screen phone but on mine, it’s basically unplayable.

Don’t buy it.
Don’t buy it. Doesn’t matter how good the interface is. It’s 2021 and it doesn’t have online play. Tides of Time is great, and it deserves love. Too bad this app isn’t helping anything. Will happily change my review if this feature is finally added (if the online play is asynchronous).
