Still works!!!!

Opened the old game and the tower motor was toast. Found the app and it still works without major issue! Pleasantly surprised. iPhone 16 Pro on iOS 18.7.1

App crashes a lot now.

This app is great and is the closest thing youโ€™ll get to playing the actual game without owning the actual board game. It really needs to be updated. It has issues now. The fights tend to be won way too often and you win too much gold compared to the actual game. Also, the game crashes now, a LOT. I canโ€™t even complete a game now. And a popup window keeps popping up saying โ€œNetwork Not Connectedโ€, getting in the way of everything. That popup actually caused a glitch that made it forget how many men I had and it locked me into a fight where I wasnโ€™t allowed to retreat. I loved this app before it got all buggy. I wish it could be updated and repaired. I FAR prefer the look and feel of this app compared to the other Dark Tower apps out there.

Great addition if you have the classic game

I spent a lot of time and money to get a complete Dark Tower classic board game. Loved playing this growing up and this app adds such a fun new level to it. It keeps the classic look and the classic play intact while adding just enough new characters and new elements that it doesnโ€™t distract from the classic experience. Well done!!

Was great

The keys are missing and so now you canโ€™t play. :/

Really Great App

I found Dark Tower in my fatherโ€™s attic and having this app to substitute for the tower on the board (broken for years at this point) was a godsend. I have had so much fun playing, there have been no issues with it, the developers should really pay themselves on the back.
