Just a small update to the app description.

We've finally fixed two tricky bugs. First, the game no longer crashes after winning or losing. This was previously happening to some players on certain devices and iOS versions. Second, players can now manually select which language to use from a new in-game menu. This alleviates a bug where the game did not match the system language. Happy playing, everyone!

We've decided to remove the Facebook and Twitter integrations. They weren't being used very much anymore and the Facebook API we were using was recently deprecated and started causing crashes. But that's all fixed now that we've removed it.

Fixing an issue with the Tutorial that we accidentally introduced in the last update. We really appreciated the email from the player who reported the issue to us! :-)

We've updated the source code to Swift 4.0 so that it runs buttery smooth on iOS 11.

It may have taken 4 years, but we've finally added gameplay music to Forbidden Island. Plug in those headphones and enjoy some musical accompaniment alongside the sound of flooding tiles.
We've also added localization for Traditional Chinese. We want to say thanks to one of our amazing fans who did the translation for us!

Just a little update this time. We've updated the App Icon!
2.8
2016-02-11
We've just released Forbidden Desert for the iPad!
While we were working on it, we decided to take a little time to fix some Forbidden Island bugs as well as add a dialog to show other iOS games that we've created. If you've enjoyed Forbidden Island, perhaps you're enjoy our other games too.

Fixed a bug where in-game messages weren't appearing for some players in Tabletop mode. It also made it especially impossible to discard cards.
Also removed the debug menu that we accidentally left in the game in version 2.6. That was embarrassing...

Bug Fixes!
- Fixed a crash that occurred whenever you were asked to resume a game. Made it kinda hard to say 'Yes'.
- Fixed the other crashes that were caused by fixing the first crash. Hoorah!

Thanks to our amazing translators, we've localized Forbidden Island into even more new languages! This update adds Spanish, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Malay.
2.4
2013-08-15
Thanks to our amazing translators, we've localized Forbidden Island into many new languages!
This update adds French, Greek, Hungarian, Indonesian, Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese.
We've also noticed that when new players have captured all of the treasures and made it to Fools' Landing, they sometimes forget that they need to play a Helicopter Card to win the game. So we thought we'd help players remember!
Now, when all of the adventurers reach Fools' Landing, an "exhortation view" (as we like to call them) will appear to remind players that they need to play a Helicopter Card to escape the island.

Grüße, Deutsche! This version adds German localization. Just set your iPad language to "Deutsch" to use it. This could be your first step towards learning a new language (or simply enjoying one you already know).
2.2

Now, with more drowning! - In certain cases, an adventurer drowning when his tile was lost to the sea didn't trigger losing the game. This update ensures that all will perish (when appropriate).
We also improved a couple of the graphics textures very slightly. Will anyone notice? Perhaps not, but it makes us happy anyway.
2.1
2013-02-12
This update removes the terrible Spanish translation that we accidentally released. Wow, that was embarrassing!
We also took the opportunity to add an explanation of the Action Counter to the Rulebook. We had just enough room for it on page 9. :-)
Of course, this version still contains our fancy new retina graphics update.
2.0
2013-02-04
This is a small update to add retina graphics to the app.
There is also a new action counter to help you keep track of your moves! (Finally)
Also, Spanish speakers: We made a small mistake, and the game now has the worst Spanish translation ever. Ever. ¡Perdónanos, por favor! It'll be fixed soon.
