### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-03-02*

Sound is not working this whole system including vampires is such a scam at this point. It’s so buggy might as well be an alpha format. Can’t even play a game I spent almost a grand on the two games under one system. Buyer beware.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-12-24*

Awesomeness though and through, never imagined a board game to play so amazing. Going to play with some friends at the card shop and introduce them to the new ways lol

### 4/5 — Solid App, and Tutorial. Need skip button.

*2024-07-22*

Played our first game against Aries in campaign mode. The app is solid, love the flavor from the narration and sound effects. UI is easy and fast. Undo button is highly valued.

Step by step tutorial is thorough, though was a tad bit slow for my playgroup. I personally found it was able to replace a rulebook through its comprehensiveness. 

Though narration and text flavor was great for Zodiac Boss’ actions, it started repeating and slowed the game pace down a medium amount. Please allow for the text/narration to be skipped or sped up, especially after it’s not the first time shown.

Saw the option for “fast animation” but could not turn it on. A different time I was able to turn that setting on, but it did not stay at that setting the next time I turned the app on and checked the settings.

Overall great team gameplay and app.

### 5/5 — READ THIS

*2024-07-11*

Amazing game and like the idea of blending board games and tech together. It makes the whole experience more engaging and immersive. I am usually not very into board games but I love this game and definitely recommend it.
