Clumsy interface
CaplinROUS
This game is nearly if not exactly the same as star realms. I like star realms. However, unlike las the information representation is obtuse, the meter face is clumsy, and it is hard to survey the board and see what is going on. Given the competition, I see no reason to slog through a frustrating interface. Also, the theme of Cthulhu realms doesn't make any sense. In star realms you were building a space empire and attacking, sometime blocked a by outposts - that makes sense. Here, you are investigators who are buying monster to haram each other's sanity. Why do the great old one do the bidding of a human? Why are the humans trying to drive each other insane? Why do location protect you from sanity loss? None of it makes sense.
Pretty good

A very fun game with a nicely done digital version. The First Chapter of the campaign is free and you can always play against the AI. The full game will cost you $5. You can figure out if it's worth it after going through the initial parts of the campaign.
UI is terrible

The game is fun, in that it's more or less a skin of Star Realms. The interface is super annoying to use, unfortunately. Even zoomed in the cards are more difficult to read than Star Realms, and the art isn't as good.
Great fun

Sure the UI is not perfect, but it works well. Online play with others is implemented very well. App badge and notifications when it is your turn. It is easy to setup game and quick to check if it is your turn. It is free to try, but anything worthwhile costs money. It is much cheaper than the real game. So quit complaining about a measly $5. I highly recommend this game.
Wonderful digital version of a Great Card Game.

Being a big fan of the card game of the same name, I think White Wizard did an amazing job making a version I can play any time I have the itch.
Cthulhu fhtagn!

A fun game that takes a lighthearted approach to the tentacle & madness filled works of H.P. Lovecraft. I loved reading those stories, and I'm really enjoying this challenging & entertaining game that builds on them. I agree with some of the other reviews that UI could be improved so cards are legible when choosing which to play or discard. But a solid game overall. Free to try, send the developers $5 if you want more. Totally worth it in my opinion.
Good game. Poor AI

The game itself is good but the normal campaign mode is too easy and the Hard is too hard. Extremely frustrating and not enjoyable.
Such a frustratingly bad game!

This game will drive you insane, and not in a way that's meant to be a compliment. Easy levels are so easy it's insulting and the hard levels are impossible, as the AI gets the best hands to play at the best possible moments for it; In short, it's programmed to cheat, in a sense. Plus, campaign mode has all of 2 chapters and the online mode has never given me a match due to nearly no online players. Don't waste your time or money.
Fun game, but...

Since updating to latest iOS, both friends and myself are having issues with connecting to the game network. A lot of times, it won't connect for online play, sometimes you have to quit, other times over reinstalled. Not sure what the issues are, but hope they get straightened out.
