Critical bug V1.0, 2012 iMac 27", OS 10.9.5

Tried to activate cloud saves. That froze the game. That also froze the Finder. Rebooted iMac. Kernel panic. Impossible to boot either from startup disk or recovery partition. Restored with most recent Time Machine backup. Would only boot from Windows partition - attempting to boot from OSX or recovery partition = kernel panic and auto shutdown. Tried Internet Recovery (COPR). Couldn’t install original OS 10.8 over OS 10.9.5, so had to wipe all OSX partitions and do a clean install of OS 10.8. Restored Time Machine backup, updated back to OS 10.9.5. Time machine volume then wouldn’t work with new installation, so had to wipe time machine and build a new time machine backup - took three days.

After this epic nightmare, dare I start up the game again? Not likely! $7.99 flushed down the toilet. I didn’t even get past the setup screens.
