Awale X - 3.4

worthwhile once they've got the kinks worked out. Several bugs exist: loading Awale puts up a VERY large icon on your desktop, and it doesn't seem to have any purpose. Selecting English leads to half and half of menu items in English and French. The game's icon sometimes doesn't appear in the dock as it should. Playing the trial version, I can't say how well the AI plays at higher skill versions. I'm waiting for 10.1 to arrive in the mail, and so it is possible that some of the bugs are due to 10.0.4 and not the game. If this proves to be the case, I'll repost another comment here. The various versions of the game rules -- and there are many -- is good, but the rule explanations are hard to read. The differences between one game and another should be highlighted in some way, perhaps by listing the rules by categories, with a brief explanation for each one. As it is, one has to wade through long paragraphs to find out how this version of the game differs from another. I'll be keeping an eye out for future updates, and will buy this as soon as some of these bugs are gone.
