Really fun game but…
It hasn’t been optimized for the dynamic island on the 14 Pro/Pro Max. The game itself is great but there are buttons on the left side of the screen that are covered by the island. I can still interact with them and the game is still playable but I had to learn what they did through trial and error cause I can’t actually read them. Still recommend the game, just hope they fix that soon cause I’m pretty sure all 15 models will have the island.
Preview
I wish that these developers would allow you to play a portion of the game before purchase. This has been in my recommended games for years. I purchased. I didn’t care for it. This isn’t an indictment of the game itself which appears to have great artwork, a very decent tutorial, & interesting elements. I just didn’t find it to be what I thought it would be. I’m not rating low because I was bored, I’m rating low because I had to pay to find out that it was boring. Also, the inability to customize the main character is always death to a game for me. We are not all white men.
Perfect. It’s a crime there aren’t further updates.
A perfect digital board game—I can’t express my love for it enough. I can only pray that one day we may get more content, or maybe even a sequel game of some sort—even if it’s only spiritual.
Game is great. Campaign is aggravating.
Everything about the game from its art to its flavor to its play is great. But the campaign is extremely frustrating because the AI opponent is so overpowered. Rather than having an even, if asymmetrical, playing field, you feel as if your strategy doesn't matter because it's more of a case of having to do specific moves in a specific order to win. The AI opponent gets powers of the bat that might take you 10 rounds to earn for yourself which completely undermines the area control aspect. If the opponent can evict you in round two and you can't get that power until round twelve, why even try to control the area? It's unfair even to call it an AI because it doesn't have any intelligence. It doesn't change its strategy according to your moves. It just uses brute force to disable you. That is my least favorite kind of solo game -- one that acts like a random puzzle where if you don't make the right move in round one that will defeat the opponent, you've already lost. It's a shame because everything else is so cool.
Amazing, deep, fun game
The art style is evocative, the strategy is deep, the multiplayer is great.
Novel Board Game : challenging and fun!
This is quite fun and some of the levels are quite challenging and require a lot of planning to beat. The graphics, sound effects, and characters are fun and cartoony, and evocative of Victorian London (like a playable cartoony Oliver Twist).
Great, but...
Why are we forced to do tutorials on the hard levels? This messes with strategy, wastes turns, gives the AI opportunity to gain the upper hand. If you’re playing the hard levels, you know how to play the game and don’t need to be taught via throwaway turns.
