The award-winning board game goes mobile! Now with the Emperor's Gifts expansion
Lanterns: The Harvest Festival is a beautiful, thoughtful tile-placement game set in imperial China based upon the best-selling and award-winning board game. The app now includes the new expansion Lanterns: The Emperor's Gifts at no additional cost. In Lanterns, players take turns arranging colorful floating lanterns on a ceremonial lake. Completing sets of lanterns earns Honor, and at the end of the game the player with the most Honor wins. Vibrant visual effects, skilled AI, meditative environmental music and smooth touch play translate the delightful zen of Lanterns: The Harvest Festival to your phone or tablet. Praise for the board game: • SXSW Game of the Year Nominee • Geek & Sundry Top 5 Games of 2015 • Dice Tower Seal of Excellence • Board Game Geek's Most Anticipated 2015 • Mensa Select 2015 Winner • Best Family Game - Dog & Thimble 2015 • Best Game for New Gamers - Dog & Thimble 2015 "Lanterns is very beautiful and easy to get into, but has depth that can challenge even the most experienced players." - Geek & Sundry "I think a lot of people are going to be turned on to Lanterns, because you can play it casually, or you can play it very competitively. Both ways it's very enjoyable, and it's hard for a game to do that." - The Game Boy Geek "Lanterns offers tile-placement and set-collection with a twist, and that twist makes it more interactive than other tile placement games I’ve tried. ... I loved the simplicity and interactivity of the game, as well as the originality." - The Opinionated Gamers Lanterns: The Harvest Festival offers all of the fun and depth of the tabletop game, PLUS: • Online asynchronous matchmaking against old friends and new • Strategic solo play to hone your skills against AI players • Progressive Challenge system to guide you through gameplay • Intuitive tap-and-drag tile placement for fast and easy play For more information, please visit www.direwolfdigital.com Follow us on Facebook and Twitter at /direwolfdigital

- Crystal Townsend · v2.3.1
A really well made app for an amazing game!
- Marshall Thompson
great game adaption, but it stops my music.
- Nicholas Gagne · v2.3.1
good adaptation
- Anthony Tuzzo · v2.2.0
Great version good graphics, good game play. Expansion included.
- Michele Ellington · v2.2.0
This is one of our favorite board games and now you can enjoy the app when out and about. The artwork is beautiful. The game has enough strategy to be fun but is simple enough to learn quickly. A win win.
- Kristina Light · v2.2.0
So many bugs.
- Dean Pisani · v2.2.0
It would be nice to be able to register an account and play online but the app wont connect to the server. Its amazing how many of these board game companies have absolutely messed up the online connectivity in their apps. No play online means no play game and quick uninstall. Kind of ridiculous for a paid app.
- Jim May · v2.2.0
Very nice. I would recommend.
- Cecile Moll · v2.2.0
Good implementation but the game itself isn't topnotch. You can find much better out there .
- Thomas Mylonas · v2.1.1
Perfect
- Chris Kraner · v2.1.1
Bad. No zoom(out) control. No any kind of options. Bad tutorial.
- James Kirk · v2.1.1
Very good gaming experience. Would be even better if you could zoom out on the map. And even on the "hard" setting the other players don't seem very strategic - wasting platforms and not using multiple matches. But overall a fun way to play when I can't find a real life opponent!
- Carmela Klug · v2.1.1
It's too slow game, just very nice graphic. I hope I can get refunded.??
- Aiji Zhan
This is just like the board game. Great game. Fun for all ages. Easy to learn.
- George Hammang · v2.1.1
Not all that good,bored after 5 minutes play,received google refund
- Juju Seekar · v2.0.1
Since the last update, it appears that the last round of dedication after placing my last tile is being skipped over! No longer correct gameplay. Very disappointed!
- Cheryl Orosz · v2.0.0
Graphics are great, challenges awesome! The board game around a table with friends and family is better, but this is still awesome when that is two nights away. It would be nice at end of game to be able to look at the lake before returning home, but that's a minor gripe.
- Stephan Peters · v1.16.5
It amazing, I also have the physical boardgame and I love it. You can play it alone, on different difficulties, with or without the expansion. The music and graphics are really lovely. I haven't experienced any errors yet and there are no adds. Totally recommend!
- Sorina Oancea · v1.16.5
This is an easy but engaging game. It mixes matching strategy, set collection and a little luck. The board is beautiful. The AI has a challenging variety. The different powers that affect scoring in the expansion really makes each game different. This is a polished, well-produced digital version of a boardgames.
- E B · v1.16.5
Gute Umsetzung des Spiels. Gefällt mir.
- Michael Blank · v1.16.5
This app is an excellent implementation of a great game, and it includes the expansion, which makes the game even better. My only request is that I wish it had a back button for those times when I accidentally place a tile in an unintended location.
- Gary S · v1.16.5
I'm enjoying the game so far but anything that requires a login is blocked to me - I try to register and it says I already have an account, I try to recover password and it says it's emailed me but then nothing happens.. :(
- Laura Hunt · v1.16.5
Beautiful, relaxing and fun.
- Dominique G · v1.16.5
Game is just like the board game, and it's easy to track and play with friends. Loses a star because if you leave the app and come back it always has to log you back in. This occasionally results in not connecting, which then requires you to fully close and then reopen the app. Again, the game itself is great and just like the board game, with pretty good graphics and audio.
- Daniel MacLeod · v1.16.5
Very nice adaptation of the game!
- Jennifer Hartley · v1.16.5
One of my favorites!p
- Sheila Dills · v1.16.5
Not sure why a game app needs access to "photos, media and files" on my device...
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Nice graphics, terrific UI and decent AI.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
A great board game made into an excellent app. I love the music, sounds and everything about this digital implementation. Whenever I need to relax, I play Lanterns and zen out.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Enjoyable
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Amazingly good! Totally worth getting if you like the boardgame
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Beautiful app version of this game. I would like to see more online players.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Awesome game
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Really good implementation of the game and expansion, BUT: This heats my phone up and drains the batteries like no other. The graphics are good, but there isn't enough complexity to explain why this game is killing my phone. I have a Pixel XL 1st generation, which is a bit old, but it's plenty powerful to handle these kinds of graphics with ease. Maybe there's no frame timer in the inner loop, so the game is running at 100% CPU drawing frames that will never get displayed? Good game otherwise.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
It is a great game. The app works well. I like that you can play multiplayer hot seat. I also appreciate that the expansion is included even though I prefere to play the basic game.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Great game
- A Google user · v1.16.5
This is so fun. I'm addicted!
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Good game but buggy game logic in expansion
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Pleasing casual game, very pretty to look at, has chill background music and sounds, works smoothly. Very nice casual game for your device, but also good for teaching beginners how to play the tabletop Lanterns game with others.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Fun just like the board game, except can play anytime with people.
- A Google user
It's a fun game when it works. I'm in the middle of an online game with a friend and haven't been getting notifications when it's my turn. And when I go into the app to check if it's my turn... Could not log in at this time. Could not log in at this time. Could not log in at this time. Could not log in at this time. Could not log in at this time. Could not log in at this time.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
Game keeps shutting down after 2 minutes of play. Not worth the money.
- A Google user · v1.16.5

- A Google user · v1.16.5
I really like this game. It has four stars because it makes my cellphone run hot.
- A Google user · v1.16.5
