Won't work
Literally just bought this game and it keeps telling unable to download.JonathanOK
Fantastic IOS port
Like the title says, this is probably the best or one of the best board game ports I’ve ever played.
Its a little annoying that the expansions are all priced so high, but its hard to complain when the physical game is 10x more expensive.
Super fun, this could easily be played in a group on a tablet as well, the only thing that you are missing by not playing the physical copy is the dice chucking but again thats okay!
Don’t understand why it is ranked so low as of when I’m writing this review.Show lessLiLxDRUMMERxBOY a
IPhone X
We need iPhone X full screen support! Great game though it’s a perfect example of how to take a board game and make it a video game.
Now if they only made an iOS version of Arkham Horror card game, Arkham Horror & Eldritch Horror.Sanguinous Rex
Fantastic game, however...
This game is great! Really well ported to iOS. The problem is there is no skip button for the intro video!!!!!! Having watched it around a hundred times now I’m fed up!!!!PeterSzG126
Crazy difficult!
Go read the blogs before you buy, people. I sure didn’t, and everyone agrees that this game is nearly impossible to win, even on the so-called easy levels. Everything is trying to make you lose the game, and the one time I actually got enough elder signs, the doom track advanced and I STILL LOST. I want my $3.99 back.Show lessReformed Cultist
Great game - faulty update
The game is addictive and the expansions (small extra cost) really create some interesting variants. With the recent update however, the sound no longer works quite right and lost the ability to skip through the opening story and other story elements (which takes awhile - really don’t enjoy sitting through that every time).Show lessGamerAlan
Pretty but broken
The dice mechanic is broken. Pretty much impossible to achieve anything. Encounter win ratio is 3/10 which is ridiculous.ArtieAP
Favorite iOS Boardgame
So many boardgames that make it onto iOS just don't capture my imagination, but this one's different. Maybe it's the fact that it's cooperative rather than competitive. Maybe it's because winning is so rare that you can enjoy a good game even if you lose. Whatever it is, this one's my favorite, and I'm glad they took the time to update it to 64-bit.Show lessUbisububi
Great Game, and actually IS winnable
I'm a big fan of the Elder Sign board game, so I grabbed this game just for fun. It's certainly more difficult than the board game, with a few of the mechanics being different, but I love it! You have to know the game. Know the characters and what each is capable of. It is not just luck. It is luck mixed with strategy and understanding of odds. Yes, sometimes you'll get awful rolls, but that happens when playing with real dice, too. Be smart about your play, and you can get the upper hand. Seriously, I play a LOT of different tabletop game, including every one of FF's Lovecraftian games, and they all have some element of luck to them. On this app, I win about 60% of the time, but it's a challenge every time! Don't buy it, or any Fantasy Flights game for that matter, if you don't want to work hard for your wins! :)Show lessabb007
It's Okay, But Has Issues
For starters, I own and play the board game frequently and, unlike other games, namely Neuroshima Hex, this game is better on the table than a screen. The user interface is often confusing. Misclicks happen often with no way to undo them. There are too many cinematic transitions that arbitrarily lengthen game time. There's a transistion in between basically anything that could possibly happen and anything after that. It's borderline ridiculous. The game is slightly different as in the board game you don't auto lose when the doom track fills up. Also, I really do feel this is harder than the board game. I only lose on the table about 25% of the time over many playthroughs both solo and teaching new people. I've beaten this once. The discrepancy is too big for me to assume it's just bad luck. If you don't want the physical version (which isn't that expensive) and just need to play this, it's serviceable. But it's not for me.Show lessMr. Mortarius
