FIGHT TO SURVIVE
Your mission to recover a legendary flying machine has just been thrown into chaos. An unexpected sand storm has forced your helicopter to make a crash landing.

In order to survive your team must work as one. Forbidden Desert is a co-operative board game designed for 2–5 players. Share water and equipment and collaborate to plan the best strategy for victory.
OVERCOME THE ODDS

Love these board games and I love that my wife and I can play them on the go. Please release the next game soon so we can continue to enjoy these games.
Great rendition of the game! I did initially think that I’d be able to play online with friends, but we solved that with a video conference. Just one person has to do all the driving, that’s all. Super fast response to the bug in v1.5, thanks!
Tutorial doesn’t work - I slide the shovel to the right but nothing happens, I cannot advance or get the tutotiral to work. Can’t figure out how to play. Disappointed.
Ever since Carcassonne was downgraded and Pandemic was utterly trashed, I get nervous when I see my favorite board game apps getting updated. Luckily after a few small bugs in the latest updates the developers responded quickly and fixed the problems. So back to 5 stars! Hopefully we get Forbidden Sky someday as this series is currently among the best board game adaptations on iOS.
Have both this and island on my system. Can’t wait for forbidden sky to join the mobile set
I bought the board game to play on our next game night and decided to get this app to play several games ahead of time. They have a nice tutorial video and good rules section. If you are new to the game I would review these and play on the easiest level (one below Novice) which is unique to this app with less bad cards and is almost a sure win. Remember there is an Undo button in case you click on the wrong button. I have been playing on the Novice level which was a 50/50 chance of winning or better until I hit all four of the Storm Beats Down (SBD) in six cards which was sure death in two straight games. In my next ten games I had all four SBD a few times in eight cards and nine cards. It can't seem to get a good shuffle lately. I just hope the game wii eventually get out of this cycle. Having my Water Bearer die three straight games of thirst almost had me delete this game. I really like this game and hope my experience isn't normal.
