I do hope this app would be updated with actual book of scripts especially with Polish language version which I use. All and all this companion app is a great idea but after this whole time it's not what it should be.
Great concept, but not much good if the book is more useful. E.g. script 700 in the book contains more stuff than it does in the app. Why? The app is supposed to replace the need for the book, this inconsistency means the book always had to be checked, so why use the app ever again?
"Language not YET available" since 2017 for German... But they had no issue selling the German version of the board game that's supposed to use this app since 2017...
Companion to the board game. Amazing script. Thanks for all the hard work that has been poured into this amazing gaming experience. Heard about this app on Youtube at: Ant Lab Games for This War of mine playthough. Recommend checking it out.
I noticed many of the low rating reviews are people that are complaining about "this game". Please learn to read the descriptions, this is a companion app for the board game, not the actual game. As for the app itself, 5/5.
It helps run the boardgame smoothly like it said it did, people are hurting the rating bc they don't understand its a companion app, you should definitely try to make that more evident.
Seems great to me! I noticed of review asking why the book and app rules differ. A printed book can't be rebalanced after printing, an app can
The app works but why offer language variety if all of them are not available. Other than that it is good.
Perfect app to support the boardgame experience. This is not a game!!! It supports the boardgame which you need to have
Romanian language pack would be wonderful. Good job still!!
wanted the real game, thought i would settle for this one, got confusing real fast
I love it its better if we can play this online
to much boring. not easy to start
Please add Czech translation from Albi
Good for what it is, an app companion!
I really want to download the real game and this game is terrible
I can't even start the game
How can i have the main game?
What is this?
Same as the book
dont install it
After the february update barely usable- highly unstable. Before that 5/5.
Request: a journal section to go through the phases.
Makes the board game even more engaging. Spending less time flipping through the book of scripts is by itself a fantastic reason to use the app and really speeds up game play. The only thing I'd really like is the save game system to be added, but it's on its way we just have to wait a little longer for that drop of awesomeness.
Great companion app for the board game! Lockpicking is a great alternative to random dice, scavenging with timer gives more suspense, and the book of scripts is just very helpful in digital form! Let's hope we will be able to switch the language of the scripts when the translations come out in September!
Really convenient addition to the boardgame. Request: adding an extra menu with shortcuts to all the FAQ entries would be very convenient for reference. Request: after clicking 'back to the game', clear the input so I can immediately type a new number.
updating the review as I managed to resolve the issue, where the app doesn't open on Pixel C running Android 8 (Oreo) just a black screen on start up but does work on Samsung S7 running (Nougat) It appears you need to manually set the permissions (Microphone) then the app opens successfully But hopefully an update will get released soon, so this wont be an issue.
Decent app that attempts to replace the book of scripts and save sheet while also adding some additional optional mini games. The review score has been tanked by people not realizing this is not a stand alone game app and is useless without the board game. But still, the script is not all there either. Entry 900 for example appears to be cut off. As one other top review stated, you will still want the book of scripts nearby. Looking forward to trying the timed scavenger mode.
