Calling all Lords of the Manor!
Designed by Masayuki Kudou and brought to you by Playdek, Tanto Cuore features classic anime art and easy-to-play mechanics. Players hire maids to staff their mansion with the goal of becoming King of Maids by acquiring the most Victory Points. Private Maids remain in play and use their special powers each turn. Some give players a bonus or affect opponents in a negative way. Opponents can make maids sick or give them bad habits, decreasing Victory Points. The player who has the most Victory Points at the end of the game wins.
Using the popular “deck building” mechanic, players improve their deck of cards through play, building strategies in a straightforward manner, and using their cards to score points. Tanto Cuore by Playdek features beautiful graphics and an easy-to-play interface!

Pros and cons of Tanto Cuore app for iPhone and iPad

Tanto Cuore app good for

I am a huge deck-building fan and this was a surprisingly innovative update to Dominions core mechanics. The app is perfect, as most games here dont support 4-player matches. If the added the expansions, Id easily buy all of them at the drop of a hat!
This game is so good. Id pay 100$ if they update this to the new expansion packs.
I have all the physical card games/expansions, but have only played this iPhone App version. The rules say that at the start of a game 10 of the 16 General MAids are chosen to be included for hiring, and the "card gallery" feature shows all the maids, but I have NEVER seen any variation in the General Maids the game sets up in the "Town."
Very well done! Im having a blast with it. I was waiting for this deckbuilding game to be released on iOS for quite some time!
I own the original hard copy of the game (and all of its expansions); its really addicting!!! It would be great if you added cards from the expansions too! Definitely worth buying!!
Simple tutorial, easy to grasp game. I realize the theme could put some off, but the gameplay is solid. That, and this is the closest well get to Dominion on the App Store - maybe ever?! If this wasnt Playdek I would have passed because of the theme and cutesy girl colors. But its great - give it a try.

Some bad moments

if you can get past all the pink this is a great card game. The theme its wrapped in might turn some people off but keep an open mind and you will have a lot of fun. Hope there is add on content soon.
Plays just like the actual card game and with no set up you can easily get a game going. Overall a lot of fun. I hope they release the expansions for this game.
You have not felt true despair until you have seen your opponent play half the cards in his deck in one massive combo, allowing him to buy one of the most expensive cards in the game, giving him a huge amount of victory points and making his deck even stronger, while at the same time inflicting illnesses on your characters to make you lose victory points and nullify your best cards. And his deck is efficient enough that he can do this every single turn. Then you will stare in horror at his army of cute maids and realize that you are helpless and that nothing awaits you but total defeat.
Best 3$ ever spent, game is exactly like the tabletop version. Only thing I wish they would implement is the option to create own game. I.e cards in town, and amount of empty piles before game over
This is a really fantastic adaption of the card game. Its a deck-building game - meaning you play cards to buy more cards to gain abilities and victory points. You shape your deck based on your own personal strategies and the current available cards. If youve played Dominion or the Penny Arcade card game, its similar - but there are more options here and a few unique features. The layout is great, but it may take one or two games to figure out everything that is going on. Definitely worth $3 - its an amazing value! Hopefully, we will get some of the expansions! They really add a lot to the game.
Nice graphics & presentation. Small learning curve but once you understand the rules the game is quite fun. Hope it gets updated with the expansion packs.
