Good core game, seemingly abandoned

Tx_Hobbes

The game at it's core is great. Fun and high quality. But the content doesn't go super far before getting repetitive, and the devs seem to have abandoned the game, with no communication or plan for updates.

Fun and challenging

Three Question Marks

I’m really liking the challenge of this game early on. I’ve failed the first adventure 3 times but it has been very different each time. I don’t like lost mobile games, but this is one I can get behind.

Fantastic game and Fantastic Price

I am playing this game on another OS, but I cannot leave reviews there for some reason :-( I wanted to praise this amazing game. I cannot find a dice rolling DnD style game for mobile. However, this game hits all the spots. It is fun, fast and a joy to play. I am disappointed in users complaining that it is not free to play. It is a good quality game. You can download for free and play to see if you like it (like Mario Run). I see this as a demo (like PS1-PS1 era of gaming). If you like it you can buy it. I bought it and love it. I hope users support this game because it is top notch and I am enjoying every minute. Also, for someone who likes DnD but has a family and work, and cannot sit down to set up and play the Pathfinders board game, this is amazing! Please bring the other Pathfinder board games to mobile!

Good game, some flaws, one overbearing issue

I like this game a lot. It takes the concepts from a collectible card game and applies them to an rpg campaign in an interesting way and it’s fun to strategize and play the different adventures. I dropped one star because there are still some bugs and I find some of the systems clunky, particularly around managing your “stash” and “unclaimed” cards. Why can’t I just include any card I’ve earned or bought in one of my decks? Why do I have to switch between two tabs just to change out one card? There’s one major problem though and it lost this game an entire star from me. It’s the final scenario of the final adventure. Other scenarios change the rules in interesting ways that make you shift your strategy, this one just makes it an incredibly boring slog that feels like an endless series of rolling die to make a check you’re never going to pass, then rolling die to see how much damage you took, then repeating this for every other character in your party. If you have poor luck you may have to face the boss over and over, taking automatic damage for every party member each time until it’s just impossible to win. On top of this, the cards that have effects that could mitigate this problem (Scrying and Augury, for example) have a bug that causes the game to freeze so you have to fully reset the game to continue when this happens and makes them impossible to use in this scenario. This makes the ultimate scenario, which should be the best one in the game, one of the worst cases of bad level design I’ve ever seen. I’d be happy to change this review if this problem was addressed.

Can not create your own character

Pay wall

Would love the ability to progress without a paywall.

This means of playing is a steal $$

The physical game base set costs $60. The adventures 2-6 are $65 for the five if you shop around, and the expanded characters deck is $15. You can buy this game on steam for $15 or $25.

Incredibly inaccurate

I had the misfortune of paying 4$ for this game. $1.99 for the first set of missions and $1.99 for a monk character. Starting with the original two characters was not fulfilling the very next mission due to a series of “unfortunate” odds. I literally failed it 6 times on the easiest difficulty when I was able to pass the intro adventures in legendary difficulty with ease. When an opportunity is showing a 95% success rate and it fails, the statistics of that are slim, but still possible. When that happens 3 times in a single scenario, that’s unreal. I feel that there are “weighted” odds to encourage players to buy more items to increase their odds which is unfortunate since the people playing these scenarios have ALREADY SPENT MONEY ON THIS GAME. Be cautious, reader. Play the free part, it’s pretty fun and easy. The odds don’t work that way when you buy one of the adventures. Just an FYI.

Great game with a paywall and many bugs that can ruin the experience

The game is for the most part, a really well crafted and an enjoyable experience, even from the small amount of gameplay you get for free (curse these new models for games to make money). You have to have a good amount of patience to get through the tutorials, and once you get a few scenarios down, a sort or analytical rhythm should be forming that’ll make the experience really fun and fulfilling. If the app icon didn’t make it apparent, this game acts like tabletop rpg games except without game masters and the imagination of players, but if you’re looking into tabletop gaming, this could be a good place to get settled into the dice, character, and turn mechanics that many games have. My biggest gripe about the game is the many bugs that pop up very randomly when i’m making plays that should save me some damage or get me a much needed item. Sometimes revealing a shield won’t give the said effect, or an enemy’s roll for damage won’t be affected by what their card says. It can be a little disheartening to see mechanics of the game switch and break, for almost no apparent reason. All in all, this is a very solid card rpg, that definitely deserves a try if you’re willing to put some careful thought into.

My confusion

It’s a rly cool game but not enough to do in the free section, plus if I wanted to buy more I can’t even find the store to make any purchases. I’d rly enjoy playing more even if I have to buy it to bad I can’t find the stupid store to do such
