  • Still one of the best board game adaptions

    After many years, I still keep coming back to play this. The difficult level is hard, but that’s good - you keep coming back for more! Background music is excellent and it’s simply a nice little game.

    Wish there was more content available but doubt it will ever happen! Recommended.
  • Crash at startup fixed

    Delete and fresh install fixed the problem
  • Won’t open

    Loved this game but now it won’t open. Hoping it gets fixed...
  • Super tense board game with great production

    I got hooked on this a couple of years ago. Recently started playing again, and you guessed it - hooked again! The margins of success are tight and you need to take some risks, assessing your probability of success. The art is lovely and overall the conversion has been handled really well. Big thumbs up!

  • After all these years...

    It is still my most loved iOS game. Hands down. Just a beautiful game all around. Fun, difficult, frustrating.....while my family plays the board game too, this version is perfect for the times when I can’t get the kids to play.....absolutely great game!
  • Excellent

    This is a fantastic implementation of the board game!
  • If you haven’t played the physical game, do not buy this!

    This app is one of the worst board game adaptations I’ve ever seen. No tutorial, no tool tips, really no indication that the ‘glyphs’ you ‘summon’ are dice being rolled. No convenient reference showing which dice have how many of each result. I had to read about 20 pages of digital rule book to even guess at how to use the UI, and even then, things like items you can buy in the shop appear as plain icons with no text description of what they do until after you buy them. Really wanted to like this game, and have given it multiple tries.

  • Impossible

    This game could be great, the graphics are good, the opening video is fine to watch once but upon multiple games is annoying and you can’t get rid of it without disabling all videos.
    Now the real problem of this game is that it’s almost impossible to win, I have played over and over and it’s heavily bias towards the computer winning. The upshot is that it gets frustrating and pointless, and seems largely to be down to sheer luck rather than any skill. Could be a whole lot better.

  • A shame that it seems abandoned

    I like the game but it has bugs and could use some love.

    Twice I’ve completed all the conditions of a task, and it won’t complete. You either have to fail it to get out or feed dice to the abyss even though there is nothing left to get.

    When the game is over, the summary needs to be better, and it would be nice if it tracked your progress with the monsters.

  • Balance is off

    First let me say this is an awesome game. The app version is very well done as well. Where I fault it is, the game can swing to not your favour very quickly. I had the game advance doom by 6 in just one turn. That is over half required to lose the game. Something like that should not happen. It takes the back and forth struggle out of the game. Too bad as this could be epic fun every game.
