Stately Citizen Journalism

Game filled up pretty quick, but I’m willing to join one more if there’s others interested.

Let me know if anybody else interested in Charterstone - I’m guessing we need 4(?) for a decent game.

I tried to play a charterstone game with my local gaming group, but the game shit the bed after the first round of the campaign. We couldn’t get the game to continue past the persona phase of the 2nd round. It would seem it’s an iOS problem that the dev is aware of and is working on.

I’ve got great faith this problem will be fixed, but it was certainly a blow to our nascent attempts to get my actual table group online during the lockdown.

Bought it, definitely ready to join.

Sadly the reviews are variations on buggy/crashes, and @Snotty128‘s comment reflects that. If we get enough, maybe we can do a test game and start properly when it’s patched.

The new Carcassonne app is available for iOS now for those of you who never got the original or who just prefer a less functional app by a developer who has a hard time fixing all their rough edges…

Boy, with such a ringing endorsement, I bet we’re all gonna rush to download this one …

I dare to ask…is this new version ‘async’?

And following that question, can you set up a game and leave it or does everyone have to be online at the same time like Asmodee seems to like to do?

@Hardco @whovian223 seems the Labyrinth servers were updated and wiped all games, per their Twitter. I’ll resend new ones when it comes back up

We were on the last turn too! I had you too after you locked yourself out of Pakistan…

I know! I’ll give you an asterisk on that one lol. Can’t seem to get back in yet - the game says I need the latest update but Steam isn’t showing one available…

we’re still testing the update. servers will be back in a few hours (you’ll have to update from Steam).

and I only ended up purging completed games and games that hit rules bugs that we’ve fixed in this update, so maybe your game will still be there.

whispers: (please get rid of the one that @hardco is winning… again… thanks.) And loving it so far, btw!

Is there a good email for bug reports? It’s my first foray into Steam and I’m not sure how to report them.

Steam forum is the best way to reports something (and you can check if someone else has already reported it there).

There are instructions on the forums for submitting a save file for a bug in an offline game. If you are only playing online then you just need to report the game number with the description of the issue.

Awesome to see continued support for Cultist Simulator. Not that I’ve played a lot of it, but when I did, I enjoyed the abstract gameplay and vowed to come back because it’s just that much different from everything else.

Did anything more come from the cultist simulator dev (Alexis Kennedy) getting #metoo’d.?

Two of my games disappeared and two remained (including the game with @js619). So I’m happy with 50% :slight_smile:

They’ve put out a few blogs about how they’ve been attacked with a smear campaign by a power hungry competitor (BS), but no, no resolution to it. Seems their uber fans were completely unwavering in their devotion to them, but I’m never going to support them in any way going forward.

My wife who was formerly involved with Lottie’s Coven Club has since started up a replacement for it, which was really the best thing they were involved in.

I doubt the games industry here in London will forget about it anytime soon.

I’m still very much done with Asymmetric as well over the allegations against Zach Johnson, another absolute waste of a human being.
