As a chess player, I find Carcassonne at least strategically interesting. Who does not know the game: There are a stack of cards and a set number pawns. With the map a landscape is built. This can then be filled with the figures. For different types of landscape there now earn points. The principle is very easy to learn, but to really master it is difficult. The random component (drawing the map), it is difficult to make definite tactical decisions, which makes the whole thing interesting. After all, the board game has sold extremely well. What annoys me is that I do not get a complete game for 4 Euro but again have to pay 5 euros for downloading content. But I draw a star from. Even if the physical version including all extensions will cost 43 euros.
Otherwise, you could argue about the intelligence of the AI. However, it is also quite difficult precompute all possibilities.
I think that this game is most fun when you play it with friends. The computer opponents on the tablet is a poor substitute for a real opponent. It's nice that the app provides the ability to play with friends on one device. That back and forth scrolling does not bother me personally.
I like to give a buy recommendation, but you should make previously familiar with the game and see if it might be a fallen.
