FWIW, I see this issue on my new M1 MacBook Pro, but not my older Intel (with same version of Safari on both). The counts don't update properly in piles or in hand (or the deck) unless they get to below 2 in the stack.

Second that, all card counters are not refreshed till 1 remaining card on my M1 MBP w/ macOS 15.6 - Safari 15.6
No issues on iOS / iPadOS, beta macOS 16 on intel iMac.

Seem to be an effect on all Safari browser platforms (macOS has it too).
Additionally card counting displays do not work correctly anymore in Safari -  Esp. for victory cards (showing always 10 till there is only 1 card left, etc), money or kingdom cards.

[1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots]

This is corto1maltese and I appreciate your offer for former MF customers.

My view on the discussion:

1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots

Definitely needed - esp. for mobile clients (iPad ideally). As I'm traveling often with no internet (plane) available or unstable mobile connections (train, car - depending on travel area) I currently can't play Dominion as often as I would.
Advantage would also be to stop playing when needed and resume the game at a (much) later date.
Offline Client für Desktop OS wouldn't be on my list because most of the time my PC/Mac is directly connected via LAN/WAN - I'd continue to use the browser client and online play.

2. A bot with a setting for different play styles

Would be nice and enhances replay value of games / scenarios.

3. A strong bot.

Definitely - might link to 2.

4. Options for timed games

I wouldn't use this.


5. Options for undo settings

Handling like current online mode would be ok. Maybe auto-grant switch per game (if no additional information is given in between).


6. Online mini-tournaments; the option to easily create one for you & your friends.

Nice to have but not first priority.


7. Option to invite specific players to your table

Would use that..


8. More translations (to what language?)

I'm fine with the current set. Wish: If playing in a language other than English, I'd sometimes like to have the English card title available as well while chatting...


9. Better animations when cards are gained/bought/played/...

Not needed as I'm looking at the log. Sometimes the log could provide more information e.g. which on a card was used.


10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ...

Definitely wanted - there is currently no way to access information on iPad with long touch. To look up some vital information via "right-click" or submenu (trash) costs time and user effort.

10. Option to hide the log

Might be useful on smaller screens - my wish would be to see trash and log at the same time or have a configurable frame (log, chat, trash).

11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?)

Wouldn't use that but should be available.

12. iPhone app (or just improved compatibility?)

Playing 90% of my games on iPad I would definitely appreciate that. iPhone would be second priority. I was wondering why "mobile first" wasn't the way for this kind of game nowadays...


13. Downloadable game logs

Downloadable - don't know I'd use that often - but log fully accessible after game end for lessons learned would be great.


14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...)

Current mode is fine for me.


15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion

Difficult task - there is a lot of material available online but can't substitute a ftf play or learning. Maybe links to online ressources would help.


16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online.

Sometimes I wonder how a certain card / effects would play out online or you have to click / touch the interface in the right way to achieve your goal. I'd appreciate a per card tutorial / wiki or an instant popup help (which could be switched on / off) when an action is required by a card / play.


Keep up your good work. Thanks for the last year of fun.
