  • Save

    Would easily be 5 star for me if I could save and come back. I don't have the time needed to finish av3 quest game available to me often. I keep trying but as yet have only completed 1 game at that setting--it just takes too long for me to not be able to comeback to. Other than that it's a great game

  • Two Important Changes

    First: Need a save game mechanism so that if I need to close the app or turn off my device the game does not have to be restarted.

    Second: Need to fix occasional bugs resulting from (but only sometimes) a decision event that needs to display due to a social interaction. This problem is particularly bad considering that the game has not been saved and cannot be saved. The bug occurs and it is game over.

    Otherwise the game is interesting, just very hard to finish.

  • Great

    It has a great single player mode, when the online multiplayer mode is improved I'll give it five stars. One of the best board games that I've played on iOS. If you are a fan of The Witcher, or fantasy based board games, then you'll enjoy this one.
  • Bug fix? What bug fix?

    This game will NOT keep your game in progress when you exit and come back. I assumed parts of the bug fix they issued yesterday would be one of the two most grievous issues this app faced. It wasn't. Do this and maybe people will be playing on gamecenter so I can get a game going, because until then the match system is just going to keep looking like a wasteland.

  • Very frustrating

    This seems like a very good game. However it has been implemented on a mobile platform without any kind of autosave or resume feature. I suggest that unless they ever implement this that you avoid this game. It is very frustrating to be in the middle of quite a long game, to then switch over to respond to some emails and to then find when you switch back the game has reset itself.

  • Cannot in Good COnscience Recommend

    This is a terrible port - the company clearly does not understand mobile environment. You cannot exit the game - it will auto end and you need to start over (no pause or resume functions). The ui is subject to graphical glitches that impair your ability to make decisions or even play. The game begins to lag significantly after turn 10 - expect that 40-70 minutes standard (!) game to take more like 3hrs due to lag. Unless that lag causes a conflict in action sequence causing the whole thing to crash. 3hrs - withOUT being able to pause and resume, ever. Even though the AI doesn't know how to play the game and will lose even when playing OP characters (they are unbalanced... and perhaps rightfully so. Geralt is the main char... Dandelion is the useless sidekick, Triss is the "not the main character" mage, and Yarpen is "he was in two of the books, occasionally").

    for god's sake, the game doesn't even remember your mute settings. However, it does remember that turn order is the same, every game, every time. The ONLY thing done correctly is the availability of offline play.

    In a game based on a BOOK, typos involving the word "loose" when you mean "lose" is pretty goddamn terrible. And it is not solitary.

    There is no true tutorial - just links to video clips with terrible voice overs. The rule book is actually a glossary.... of like, 30 different terms (some of which have no practical meaning in a digital game - like "when cards run out, reshuffle them") in tiny font. The people in charge of the app version clearly have shown NO thought whatsoever to the mobile enviornment... or even the digital transition.

    Did i mention 3 hr, lag filled, forgone conclusion games that cannot be interrupted?

  • One Small Request

    Great game, I also have it on my PC. Can't find anything I dislike about it but one small thing. Please remove 'ver 1.0.2' from the bottom left. On the PC it's not so noticeable but on the iPad it overwrites part of the game display. Put it on the start screen where it belongs, it does not belong on the actual game screen. It may not be much but it's like that first tiny scratch on your new car, it's the FIRST thing you notice. Can you please remove it from the game screen? Thanks!

  • Just like the board game without the fiddley bits

    OK, I love the fiddley bits of a "real" board game but for a lone player the digital version is a great compromise.

    This is a perfect implementation of the physical game but one thing causes me to twitch uncontrollably:

    When the game announces that it is the turn of the character Triss, it declares "Triss' Turn". Rather than "Triss's Turn".

    The former means that it's the turn of all characters named Triss; the latter indicates that it is now the turn of the character called Triss.

    I know I'm pedantic, but I can't help it...

  • Love The Witcher, Hate this Game

    Yes, I own the hard-copy. The hard-copy is more engaging due to the nice components.

    I'm a die-hard board game and card game fan. I own hundreds. What kills this game is that...it's...just...not...fun. Boring, long-winded quests. Sorry you had to suffer through this, Geralt.
  • Lacks game save

    This would be a pleasant enough game were not that there is no game save or continuation. Does the developer that players will actually do nothing else but play this game for the hour or more it takes to finish?
    A four star game less two stars for poor application design.
