  • fantastic

    I was shocked that games have such a low rating because it’s amazing! The story and atmosphere are there! Gameplay and characters are fantastic! I truly love everything about this game!
  • Great game!

    There’s a lot of bad reviews about the controls but I have barely had any trouble. Sure the path finding is not great sometimes but I never had any real trouble. The game itself is great. The combat mechanics can be confusing at first learning what everything does, but the story kept me going right along because it’s pretty great. I haven’t finished it quite yet, but I have put many hours into it. If you are into turn based combat and decision making RPGs this is a pretty great story so far
  • Can’t play full version

    I was trying to purchase the full version but I can’t. Hence the one star.
  • This is a 4.5-5 star game!

    And it would have a much higher rating if it weren’t for the slew of 1 stars given by people who don’t understand the “Free Preview / Pay for Full Game” model, which is really baffling/sad to see how some people don’t understand this.

    Anyways, this game is great! Amazing vibe and atmosphere… extremely dark and spoopy which I love. Very nuanced and complex. Nice intro to an older culture, with its various customs and beliefs - so there’s a bit of a cultural history class going on as well.
    I was playing the free combat demo then felt compelled to dive into the full version and I’m so glad I did. I’m really just at the beginning, it’s an excellent game with a unique identity - looks very promising!

    PS thanks for the definitions to the obscure cultural terms, I’d be lost (and rather put off) without them.
  • Контроллер

    Играю с контроллером, джойстик движения работают а кнопки нет. Исправьте пожалуйста авто играть не могу а хотелось бы купить и пройти.
  • Clunky and Boring

    The controls are absolutely terrible. The story is poorly written. The graphics are awful.
    Listen to this. In the story, the main character’s husband kills himself, but the narrator says he can’t remember why. Seems like kind of a big deal, since the rest of the story is based on her struggle to resurrect him.
    To control the character, you tap on the background, and she very slowly walks off in a random direction.
    The artwork looks like it was drawn by a child.
    I wish I could give this 0 stars.
  • Pay wall

    As soon as you start up the game it asks if you want to pay to get through the pay wall to unlock 95% of the game. You get to play mech at all before you have to buy the full game and what you do get to play isn’t very fun at all. In the end just don’t get it.

    Developer Response

    Hi Bransomiffic, thank you for your feedback on Black Book, and we're sorry to hear that you're disappointed with the in-app purchases. We’ve added a complete prologue (approx. 1 hour of gameplay) and an Endless Battles mode to let players try the game before deciding whether to purchase the full version, which is paid on all other platforms as well. We appreciate your understanding and hope you'll continue to enjoy Black Book. If you have any further feedback, we'd love to hear from you!
  • Great game

    I love this game it has a phenomenal story and concept. The controls are a bit touchy which can be a little annoying but otherwise a great game!
  • A gorgeous game with a lot of heart.

    I’ve maybe written 4 reviews for games or any app in general. However, the game only having a 1 star review (at the time of writing at least) just feels wrong.

    Yes, the controls might be a little different, but once you get used to then it’s not that bad.

    The graphics and visuals are decent. Definitely fits a style and it works well!

    Give the game a try, but don’t 1 star because the controls are a little funky at first.
  • A promising game

    I have spent a few hours on the endless mode and try the first chapter. Here are some of my feelings. This game is promising, I see a shadow of Slay the Spire which I like. Also, the game has its own things which make the game to higher level. I like the explore mode, the medicine, assistance etc. Here are some things I don’t like. 1. The name of the graphic of the card is hard to remember. 2. The name need more optimization. I am using an iPhone 12 Pro Max which it turns hot quickly. 3. it is hard to pick the target you want to attack. 4. Sometimes the calculation of the the attack and defend especially adding a lot of buffs. I haven’t purchased the game yet, I want to see the improvements before buying it. This game is worth the money if you like this type of game.
