Broken app

Recently bought the game from goodwill and saw there was an app in the App Store. Go to download it, select my role and change my color, but then that’s it, there’s no further steps you can take. There’s nothing to select, only the back button to go back to the previous “choose your role” screen. It’s pretty much a broken app if you cannot progress past the point of choosing your role.

Thanks for giving the app a try, and sorry it wasn’t what you expected. Pandemic Role is a small companion for the board game, not a full game tracker. It does one thing: it helps each player pick (or randomly draw) a role and a pawn color, then shows the role card with its abilities so you can have it on hand while you play. Once you’ve chosen your role and color, you’re all set and head back to the physical board. There aren’t any further steps, so the back button is the only thing left on that screen. I can see that isn’t clear from the App Store listing, and I’ll update the description so it’s obvious up front. If there’s a feature you’d have wanted after the role selection (for example, a turn tracker or a reference for the actions), I’d love to hear it at. Thanks again, and enjoy the game!

pandemic ROLES!

It’s a list of roles you idiot. Also, works fine describes roles well but lacs some more aesthetic improvements.

Stuck

I pick a role and it wants me to pick a color, I do, but then can’t get past that point. There’s no button or option to move past. I have tried holding down, resetting etc.

Hi! After selecting a role and color, the color applies automatically—there’s no extra step needed. If something isn’t working as expected, feel free to share more details, and we’ll be happy to help. Thanks for your feedback!

Zero clarity

The game was extremely unclear about how to start a game. I don’t know if it’s just me, so I’m giving it the benefit of the doubt and rating 3, not 1.

Hi! This isn't a standalone game but a companion app designed to work with the role cards from another game. You'll still need the physical copy to play. Hope that helps!
