Good call, downloading now.
Some idiot has given it 1 star on my App Store because their phone is too old to play it! I pity devs sometimes
People suck.
Also, def not recommended on iPhone, at least for those with old eyes. I can barely see what Iām doing on my 12 Pro; Iām sure itās great on iPad.
Yeah, when @Shadowfax mentioned it was on iOS I was surprised, I am playing it on a 27" iMac and my first thought is that it would be hard to see on an iphone. Ipad might be ok, I might download the free version to see how different it is later.

Iāll echo that impressionādownloaded it on my 12 Pro Max, and while itās playable, I think itāll be much better on my iPad. Game seems very cool, though. Thereās a bit of a Kingdom vibe to the base building/tower defense part of it.

I should probably finish the Shadowbringers storyline one of these days.
I tend not to care much for stories in MMORPGs, but Shadowbringers is pretty good. I mostly enjoy exploring new areas and playing paper dolls with my characters,
I got bored running fetch quests for some trickster fairy people, and kind of stopped playing because of it. But have meant to go back and finish the story.
Yeah. A pitfall of the genre, to be sure, those fetch quests. No shame in skipping dialogue if needs be.
So this weekend I have had the following on rotation, depending on what kids were doing and my frustration levels
- PTCGO - keep trading to build decks - built a Gengar VMAX deck that has been pretty cool.
- PokƩmon Shield - playing through with kids, I am trying to build a living PokƩdex on Sword, so looking for all the edition specific PokƩmon.
- Gloomhaven - dropped down from playing 4 handed to playing 3 handed on the PC. Had some success, but it is so far! Feel I am under cooked on items and overlevelled.
- Across the Obelisk - you need to check this out! Think slay the spire style, but you control 4 characters. Lots of thinking buff/debuff. Campaign and random mode. The campaign you can craft up your deck a bit, random you draft. So as for a deck builder, you never start with just the standard 5 attacks, 4 defence, 3 utility cards.
Itās still in early access and it is on PC, but there is a lot to like here. Downside is that it is very overwhelming to start with no tutorial (but has tooltips) and caters to a specific crowd - people that love dream quest / slay the spire / monster train etc.

I am that demographic, so I will hope it hits mobile or Switch eventually.

No, but it has been on my wish list forever. At $10, I usually am a sucker. But holding off on new games until winter sale right now.

Agreed. It looks really neat, but at this point anything I buy during the holidays I need to PLAY right then and there. Lowest price Iāve seen, though.
Edit: play not ply

I am still working my way through Gloomhaven on the PC.
Seriously, I have no idea how you would finish this in cardboard version. I am about 35-40 scenarios in and up to 80 hours played. I have failed a lot, my characters retire with between 50-75% win rates.
For those that play cardboardā¦ how?!?!?!? I have frosthaven coming and I just donāt know how I am ever going to complete it.

Largely by playing it a lot. If you can sit down and play 3-4 missions in a session, it cuts down on set up time, everyone learns each otherās moves more thoroughly, and people stop looting everything. It did take us months mind you, but our win rate later in the game was sky-high. Party composition can be important too, some teams are a lot more fragile than others in terms of success.
I have it from a sale on PS4/PS5ā¦yet I did not already play it because of Backlog and suchā¦
