Its been down for over 24 hours for me, I'm still waiting, wtf? No News announcement, this is sad tthis game is only a year old

It's down for me for over 48 hours

Very sorry for the issue everyone, unfortunately online services for our digital board games are temporarily suspended starting September 30th because our provider GameSparks has ceased operation. We are working on a new, better online integration which will be online in the next few months and available in an update. Meanwhile, all offline modes are fully operational. Thank you for your patience and again sorry for the inconvenience.

As an infrastructure engineer this with 22 years experience managing SaaS Applications I'm both not surprised, and terribly disappointed.

This smacks of an organization which doesn't invest in having the people needed to maintain their product and keep on top of managing their vendors and migrating to others as needed.

Very disappointing the game isn't even a year old, I only purchased it recently and began playing it and you can bet I am not going to be buying the expansions now.

I also just bought this game last week, and the expansions. Single player offline is fine, but the real hook of this game are the leader boards and especially the daily challenge.

I sure hope it doesn't take "a few months" like the developer said to fix this. If I knew this wasn't going to have the daily challenges I would not have bought the game.

Good luck to you, Horrible Guild folks, but please get this back online as soon as possible.

We will!

"Meanwhile, all offline modes are fully operational."
Not really. You still see connection errors on the result scores.

Sorry about that, a temporary workaround is to disconnect from the internet. We are testing our newly developed backend on the new servers and online provider (Playfab) we'll have some news soon!

It's been five months. Any word on when, or even IF, the leader boards will be back online, please?

No IFs, definitely, we are currently testing the new backend on all the catalogue games (so games have been updated, backend work has been completed), no ETA yet but it's almost there.

3 weeks since the new server was almost ready

Five more weeks gone by and still nothing. What's the status, please? When will we get the leader boards back? You keep saying for sure, no ifs, almost there, but still nothing.

9 more days and still wanting to play some of my favourite digital board games of all time! Specially Railroad Ink with the daily challenges. So much time waiting... I think I will go for methadone right now! :-D

I don't think "almost there" means what they think it means.
