Good implementation, frustrating AI
Mon Aug 23 2021 Ergonomic CatThis app is very well written. Clean, easy to use. However the AI is extremely frustrating. It will target the human player more often, even at the expense of losing the entire game. I’ve watched the AI choose to target me with 0 wins when other players are 1 from victory. I’ve watched the AI pick guard on me 3x in a row before I’ve played, resulting in matches where I played in 1/3rd of the games at all. I’ve watched the AI use a guard on me when they literally traded hands with another player just before. I did have a lot of fun with the game before I started to notice and definitely got my money’s worth over time. So it’s more like the game is 4-5 stars to start then declined to 2 for me.
Please Add DLC
Sat Nov 20 2021 AusgeowilWith the big box dlc released, I was hoping they’d update this game for 5+ players to allow for the new cards. These cards include: Card (number in card): description: Assassin (0): when someone plays a guard card on you the person playing the guard is out. Joker (0): Pick someone you think will win the round. If they win the run, you also get an affection token (heart). Guards (1) (I think there’s three more added) Cardinal (2): pick two players to trade hands and look at one of them Baroness (3): Choose one or two players, look at their hand(s). Sycophant (4): Pick a player. If the next card played has an affect, that player must be chosen for that effect. Count (5): if this card is in your discard pile, add one to the card you are holding at the end of the round (if you are still in and no more cards in the draw pile) Constable (6): If this card is in your discard pile, and you get eliminated from the round you get an affection token. Dowager Queen (7): Pick a player. Look at each other cards, the higher number is out. Bishop (9): Pick a player. Guess any non-guard card they have, if you guess it right, you get an affection token. The player you guessed is not out but may or may not discard their card. At the end of the round, the princess beats the bishop (unsure how bishop works on Baron and Dowager Queen with the Princess). These cards add an extra layer and a ton of fun for 5+ players! Highly recommend adding these!
Good purchase; wish the app parameters were different
Mon Feb 18 2019 lily farmerI would definitely recommend anyone to buy this game (especially if they already own it IRL). This is super fun, easy to learn, and casual yet engaging. The options within app could be fixed however. That is, I wish for that “public play” was more like how it is done in Mysterium—individuals open a game that others can then join & we can play with AI. (This is the one game I don’t mind too much to play with AI.) The latter wish applies to the private game as well; I wish I could set up a game with optional AI.
Great game. Needs bluetooth support.
Sun Nov 25 2018 Kem422I really like this game. I own Lovecraft Letters and it would be AWESOME if that version were available as well or if various versions could be purchased as an in app purchase. I know there are numerous versions and everyone will have their favorite. My only complaint, and it is with most board/card games gone digital, is that you can’t play via bluetooth with people around you in the same room. This would be a great game to play with friends or family members when sitting and waiting for an event or show or out camping where no wifi is available. This game is so fast and fun to play. I would give this game 5 stars if I could be free of wifi and be played locally over bluetooth. Keep up the great work.
Great solo game!
Wed Feb 26 2020 WRS15743Perfect for fast play when you have a few minutes. Challenging without being frustrating. Just the right amount of depth and strategy, not too easy, not too hard, some luck too. The AI is very balanced. Customizable options (like how many tokens it takes to win) add great variety of play. Everything runs so smoothly. This has become one of my favorite card games ever. Priced so fairly too. Thanks you!
Works awesome on 7s plus
Thu Nov 01 2018 AkudenThis game is awesome! I recently bought it to try it out and help me decide if I want to buy the physical game. So far, I have only experienced one crash. The rest of the time, the game runs very smooth and is one of the best card/board game apps I’ve played. The gameplay is super addicting and I love the slight animations added to each card. Great work!
No Pass & Play
Fri Dec 21 2018 RohifiBe warned if you just glance over the description like I did, one bullet point states 1-4 players but it’s apparently in a different bullet point that reveals it doesn’t include pass & play! The physical version is a game my partner and I love to sit down to for a few rounds right before bed, and I thought buying the digital iPad version would be a perfect substitute for us... I was wrong! DO NOT PURCHASE if you are looking for local multiplayer pass & play because for some boneheaded reason the devs couldn’t be bothered to implement what should be a core necessary feature for all iOS tabletop games.
Note for Developer
Sun Jan 13 2019 Klyn90I would totally change to 5 stars if the multiplayer allowed us to fill open spots with AI. like, we should be able to set the desired number of players and then whether or not we want empty spots filled with AI when the game starts. The constant 2-player games that result are not as enjoyable. There should also be local pass and play, but I’m more interested in local multiplayer as long as everyone is on the same WiFi or Bluetooth.
