Yes. For sure. Pretty consistently.

Yes. And the breeding programs seem to be a constant offender here.

I have never been able to reproduce it on emulator but I think it's linked to the tooltip. I know tooltips are a buggy on BGA in general on iOS because click/longclick detection does not work well on iOS for some reason. And since the tooltip is really big, it get displayed on top of the card so the click just makes it disappear again, leading to no selection.
That's the only lead I have on this issue, not sure how I can fix that for the moment though

I get this issue consistently on iPhone/ipad and it’s always on sponsor cards. It means that when you want to play or discard a sponsor, you can’t which means you end up discarding cards you actually want to keep. I have seen several comments saying they have not been able to replicate this but I get it in almost every game.

I can't replicate it because i dont have an iPhone to test it and the emulator does not seems to face the same issue. Also it seems to depends a lot on the screen size and on the position of the card.

Haven't encountered this problem on my ipad4. Only big problem I have is can't drag things for Feast for Odin,as I have no mouse for it.

Yes I get this too on my iPhone. I don’t have any other device to play on. Sponsor cards are the worse and breeding program often doesn’t work for me. I have problems in wingspan too.

It's always sponsor cards (though some are fine) and it's worst with breeding programme. It's only a problem on my iphone and never on the laptop.

What's annoying is that the game knows I'm touching the card, because it does that briefly expanding / highlighting. it just doesn't go anywhere with it.

I've always had success scrolling down a bit and aiming for the bottom part of the card to select it. If it is indeed the tooltip that is causing the issue then this explains why it works.
