Sound does not work

Sound does not work throughout the app on iOS

Sound broken

Downloaded mostly for Thunder Road Sound board but it doesn’t work

Good but….

The sounds don’t work

Sound effects not working

This app is buggy.
Thunder Road sound effects don’t work. Bummer. Hope they can address this issue soon. Great game!

Sound board does not work

Sound board does not work on iOS.

Thunder Road part needs some fixing

The sound fxs don’t seem to work. Also part of the rules state that the first tile should always be the parking lot but this app doesn’t take that into account.

App problems

The app is giving false info. One instance told us our guess was incorrect costing us the game when during the replay, our guess was correct. Then tonight we tried playing again and the replay after we lost showed a completely different trail of clues that what we got during our game play. How can this be fixed. Cause other that the app fail, we really love the concept of the game.

Missing features for Downforce

There’s no way to record the second bet for the “savvy” power card in the app. Also there’s no way to easily review your bets after you make them. Adding these two options would make me raise my review from 4 to 5 stars.

Broken app

Maybe I’m playing the game incorrectly but I couldn’t get a single crime thwarted! It seems like the thieves just started teleporting all over the room. Like they would be confirmed to be in room 423 but 3 turns later with no hubbub sound playing they would teleport to room 327.

Stop Thief!

Excellent remake! My family use to play this all the time when me and my brothers were growing up in the 70’s. The quality is very good, cards are very sturdy, love the additional content, and the app works flawlessly. My 5 year old daughter absolutely loves the coop version and we play it at least 4 or 5 times every weekend. Great job!

Utile pour DownForce

Je l'utilise depuis peu pour DownForce et c'est parfait. J'aurais juste aimé que l'application gère les différents joueurs et une sauvegarde de tous les scores consultables à tout moment.

Fireball island add on is awesome

I don’t have the other games but if there is good as fireball island is I might buy them! I’m looking forward to playing using this app. Great randomization for placement of tokens and first player. The soundtrack is awesome! I don’t know what the other one is and would like to be able to unlock it

Needs More Testing and Debugging

The thief in the app moves contrary to what the rules say he will do. The rules say that when he goes to a window or door that he always goes through it, but in the app he opens a door and then walks away from it. You can see it on the replay even. Also, in coop mode, it says you lose when you run out of money, but the app says you lose suddenly out of nowhere.

I think they did an excellent job restoring this gem of a game, but they needed to hire a better algorithm programmer, tester, and overall details manager to get this to 100%.

Serviceable but not yet stellar

The Downforce score sheet is welcome, if a bit spartan. The Fireball Island contents hold much promise. But it feels very much a cross platform app and doesn’t size properly on iPhone X devices. Hoping for additional polish when FI module drops.

This new update is really weird...the game is great otherwise

We got stop thief and the app was great for playing it but then I downloaded the game to play again and this update got us really confused because it doesn’t go along with the board game at all because there are gangs and the crimes are committed and we don’t know where and the private tips don’t help at all they only tell the first number and that’s it. The older version was great and was fun to play but this new update just isn’t fun at all if you have no clue what is going on or what to do.

Add ons

How long until you add stop thief 'other ways to play'? I grew up playing this as my favorite band, you did a great job, thank you!

Great idea, not so good implementation

First, the app has both Downforce and Stop Thief, both of which are great games and Restoration Games did an excellent job with the remakes. Would love more functionality for Downforce to allow all players to keep score on the same phone, but that would just be a bonus. As far as Stop Thief, it starts out ok. But, somewhere in the middle of the game, the clue that is given isn't correct and the only way to get the actual clue that was supposed to be given is to hit the "replay clue" button and replay the most recent one. That's a huge buzzkill and we had to figure that out the hard way after no one could figure out how in the world the thief ended up where they were. Once that is fixed, this will be a great app. Again, would like that additional usage for multiple players for Downforce too.

Stop Thief portion is glitchy!

The clues don’t always match from “Get a Clue” and the replay. Found that out the hard way and it ruined a game. Only playable if you check the replay after every single move. Can’t isolate when it happens. Replay is always the correct movement.

Seems like an interesting game, but....

We tried the game 4 times and each time, the app froze at various functions and different durations. Because of the freezing app, we were unable to get more than 3 turns into the game. This was on the latest IOS.

I am not sure the app was ready for prime time even though the game + app seems interesting.

Great remake of a classic!

30+ years ago I remember playing Stop Thief as a child. The new version of the board game replaces an electronic device with this app. The app works great and the board game is fantastic. My wife and I loved the attention to details on the board game, my 8-yo was the perfect age to play, and my 5-yo was able to play with relaxed rules (we just let her move where she wanted.) my only wish for the app is that the name of the app was actually Stop Thief so that it could be found easier.
