Hi folks,
The 7 Wonders app has been released for Android today (it's £4.99 btw). It also now works on iPhones (the iOS version previously only worked on iPads). There's a thread on BGG with more info should you be interested... https://boardgamegeek.com/blogpost/71850/app-news-terra-mystica-getting-fire-ice-over-holid
Personally, I'm hoping this app gets me into the game as I've only played it once (at UKGE) and have a physical copy still in shrinkwrap on my shelf of shame!

I was just talking about this yesterday with Decar. In summary, I want to play more 7 Wonders and the digital version would obviously help me do that, but I fear that (a) I won't be able to resist playing way too much when I have other things I should be doing, and (b) I might become too experienced and not want to play the physical game against new players anymore (as is now the case with Carcassonne). I think we eventually agreed that (b) might be less of an issue with 7 Wonders than Carcassonne, but the (a) is what will likely make me hold off on getting a digital version. Plus, two of the things I really like about board games are precisely that they are not digital and the social aspect of playing across the table from others.

Very tempting.

I have never considered this as a disadvantage and if I need a challenge, I can play against you at any time :)) :o
