8 of 19It's just not fun. The entire game centers around fate points and strategy for anything else comes second to that. I mean that's fine I guess but the worst part is you shouldnt lose fate points when passing. The dice rolls are also a headache because not all games are winnable. There should really be more game play customization options like jot losing fate when passing and such. This is my favorite book series and it deserves a better or just a different game.
The app is gorgeous, the gameplay is fun, the guy who played 40+ games without a victory probably does not understand know how to play (or perhaps he is cursed).<br/>Yes, it is hard, the strategy guide is a must read. But after a read through, one game where I was still figuring out that you need to bring fate to the showdown, I won the second game handily.<br/>If you like coop play, careful planning, and can stand being stung a bit by the RNG gods, this is package delivers with a wizardy bang.<br/><br/>No love potions needed or supplied.
This appears to be a great translation of the very excellent board/card game. I've only payed solitaire with one win and a couple close loses but it seems to work quite well and for some reason seems more evocative of the books than playing the board game.<br/><br/>I very much wish there was an asynchronous network version. While I understand that direct communication is useful in cooperative games, time availability makes the async option very attractive.
I’m a big fan of the series of books that inspired the game, and this app is a perfect way to play the card game without busting out my physical copy. Is the game challenging? Absolutely. But the strategy makes it very replayable. Just won my first game! A great way to pass the time.
If you are a fan of the Dresden Files books by Jim Butcher or Fate dice games, this is for you! It supports pass and play either locally or online. Lots of fun and the difficulty can be raised to make it very challenging.<br/>My only request is that the developers make the music tracks loop so I can enjoy the extra ambience for the entire game. <br/>Highly recommended!<br/><br/>To anyone thinking the game is ‘too tough’, it’s supposed to be tough. I have the board game version and my friends an I can win on ‘normal’ without much table talk. We are working up to the most difficult mode.
Like a few others I’ve found it frustrating that I haven’t won a single solitaire game after HOURS of playing. Perhaps it’s not really meant to be played alone?<br/>I continue to come close with several ties, but expected to win at least one game on “easy” mode. <br/>I will give two stars instead of one because for some unknown reason I keep wanting to play it. Maybe I’m just as stubborn as Harry 😉<br/>Also, the tutorial is terrible. I played through an actual solitaire game, then looked at the tutorial for a fourth time and THINK I figured out how to play.
If you love the Deaden files card game and you can’t always take your physical game with you, this is for you. Knowing a bit about the Fate system helps, but the tutorial is helpful.
I've enjoyed the artwork and implementation of the game. It does involve a fair amount of chance but given its fast and puzzle like nature I found it to be a fun departure from the standard coop game play. I suggest going in expecting to lose frequently until you sense the cadence of your choices.
