Warhammer AoS: Champions

Each update continues to worsen the experience. When I first began playing this game, I was able to do so one-handed. Then came an update that changed the interface to landscape mode, requiring the use of 2 hands to play and drastically reducing the visual range. It went from having nice artwork on the cards to being unable to see anything. The most recent update has introduced ads where there previously were none. This game has gone from every day play to the chopping block for uninstallation.

Very interesting and unique mechanics. Gameplay is pretty challenging, and I'm having a great time learning the strategies. can play the full game for free as far as i can see, but also ties to the physical version. Look online got people sharing their booster scans, you can get a bunch of free stuff from them. I really like this game so far, and see no need to buy into the physical cards.

The gameplay is great. Great game. Issue is the UI gets more cluttered (at least on a phone on a tablet its fine) and the game speed slows down after each update. Games that took 10 minutes now take 12 just because of long displays after cards are placed. Champion placement also takes longer. Since the newest patch I can't play the game unless on Wifi. Don't know if it's because of my S9+ or the app but it's incredibly frustrating.

New landscape layout isnt very comfortable. Used to have a blast playing with one hand with the portrait layout. You guys should give an option of choosing the layouy so that those of us who enjoy playing in portrait mode can do so. Hopefully you would work on the feedback given. Looking forward to a positive response since I am such a huge fan of this game.

The Warhamner theme of this game is too gloomy and gory to be enjoyable but by die-hard fans. The graphics are mostly sharp but still fell like retro. And everything seems slow, especially the card playing animations. That's really a pity because all this distracts from an otherwise great game. PlayFusion took the mechanics they devised for Lightseekers a few steps further. So Champions is even more innovative (and different of most if not all other ccg avaible on Android). And the gameplay is really good! Oh, I almost forgot: the possibility to scan actual cards to add them to our virtual collection is fantastic.

After the updates that prevented me from losing all my saved progress, I can finally enjoy the game fully. If you're a fan of CCGs then you'll enjoy Warhammer champions. With a two action per player system the idea of mana or energy is thrown out the window and allows players to focus on the more tactical aspect of the game rather than spending several turns just setting up their combos leaving them vulnerable before execution. Fast paced and full of options this is a card game worth playing on the phone.

The game plays out great. It does not heat up my phone, so I don't think the battery saving option is necessary. I do hope they make the in-game board more compatible with 18:9 screens, as currently it is only 16:9 with in-game borders around it. Also, please add the option to fight a "random alignment" opponent in practice. Overall - solid game :)

It's a good clone of the physical game, but now you have to watch adverts to claim your "free" log in prize. Alternatively, you can choose to buy the daily login prize for half the cost it would usually be... Not a big fan of having a system used to incentivize interaction interaction turned in to a way to subject myself to pointless ads. So for that reason, I'm uninstalling.

Jan 2021 It didn't work for months. Then it did and I love the game. April 2019 I bought a Motorola Moto g stylus. I can't play champions. Closes every time I open it. I love the game, both app and CCG. New landscape view is inferior to old view. I cant see the cards anymore, on my phone. It was fabulous before. I would like to see an option to change it back to the original view. It's a great looking game on a tablet, but the cards are impossible to read on a cell phone.

Overall, I really wanted to like Champions. I love the novel approach toward game mechanics, I love the Warhammer setting, I think some of the card illustrations are fantastic, but in the end, I just really dislike this game. I've played many CCG's since the early days of MTG, so seeing something crop up with a new take on the format seemed refreshing. A lack of explanation hampered my excitement pretty quickly. I had to go digging around online to figure out fundamental game mechanics and symbols. The limiting nature of the game (hand size and actions) was a bit of a turn off as well. The previous reasons are probably why I couldn't really progress anywhere or earn anything outside of the novel scanning mechanic. Finally, too many interaction bugs cemented it for me and I uninstalled. In the end I would say: Cool AR scanning mechanic (which, if you look online you will find hundreds of cards to scan, helping you along dramatically), neat idea to turn cards giving them different actions/stats from one turn to the next, but beyond that, it's all bad.

Currently there is a bug that from what I'm gathering. When a player leaves a match early without forfeit the game freezes. You can still interact with everything but the turns will never change. This forces the other player to have to forfeit just to play another match. Really love the game but this is infuriating.

An awesome implementation of the new TCG. Not only does it have its own decks and collection, but you can import all of your actual cards into the game and use them as well. It plays as a nice option for those who might not have other people to play against at the time. It is a nice way to try out new cards and deck builds as well as see all of the cards in the game and how they work before you go out to buy them. The card scan ability is a very interesting mechanic that sets this apart from a lot of other games. Even the rules cards can be scanned to bring up the rules on your device for quick reference.

It's great for the most part but some really annoying choices like when an opponent plays a card that requires some kind of choice it takes up, and freezes, your entire screen. This is the time when ideally I'd be looking at my opponent's discard pile instead of staring blankly at one card. Also the timer is way too long. Finally - why the hell did you ban Cruisin for a Bruisin from ranked play, then reinstate it, without EVER communicating with your customers?

This is the first card game I've played in years and while the basics are fairly simple, it can be as complicated as you like. You pick an alliance to fit your play style so even when you lose it's fun. I started playing on my Nintendo Switch and my profile seamlessly transfered to my phone. The numbers are small which makes them easy to hold your head while making every decision crucial. Great art and animation.

Simple rules, so many combinations. Built around a unique game mechanic - physical card rotations, you have a mix of forward thinking and luck. Collect digital and physical cards and use them both in the app, a feature that I like! I have not had any bugs so far and the game works solidly. Downside is you have to be online to play (against AI) which is unfortunate since this is my 'go 2' on my way back to work which has a no signal zone in it.

I love the game both digitally and physically. Unfortunately, with the new update, I can't reach my account. I was around level 90 and I just can't seem to get into that account again. I've lost all my cards, levels, achievements, everything. This review will stay at 1 star until my account is recovered.

Didn't get past the tutorial because of the uncomfortably small ui. All the cards are tiny and you need to hold on the cards for it to pop up to a readable size. The board state is inherently complex: different champions in different lanes with their individual order of quest icons, each playable card having rotating values (which aren't always displayed with the correct orientation). All these small icons and numbers and pictures just end up looking like a cluttered mess. It is a shame that this game chooses to use a portrait orientation for the screen. There just isn't enough width to easily show complex gameplay. Game mechanics seem good, just the portrait orientation is a big turn off.

Pretty damn fun. Its different from most card games around so its pretty refreshing to see a different approach. The games can be kinda lengthy but thats ok. Even though it have comparatively few cards it manages to have some variation in the strategys employed by community. I feel that it needs a lot more cards and a reference guide for new players. There are a lot of mechanics the games aren't clear. But all in all pretty fun.

A very quick to pick up, hard to master game. I highly recommend getting this. In app purchases not required at all to get more content, jump on Reddit or the official forum to scan cards for free content. Matches take about 5 minutes, with a long game being 10. The 4 factions play very differently from one another, so you'll be able to find a play style to suit you. The physical game also augments the digital one, with you being able to add your physical cards to your digital collection. edit to response: You're welcome guys, you should be proud. Keep up the good work.

More bad than good. AI always seems to have an unfair advantage. you are hardly given cards instead of avatar portraits, loot rng is horrible. Plays too slowly, far too clunky; 20-30 minutes for a standard mode of a 1v1 card game on mobile is too much. Balancing issues of decks, Order is almost useless and Destruction is the only one worth using right now. Unfinished-looking art on some of the cards. This game will be great on mobile in like a year or two maybe.

I decided to rewrite my review for this game and go into a bit more detail. The gameplay is both very strategic and fast-paced. If this sounds like your play style, definitely check out this game. Scanning does work, but I've noticed it starting to lag after scanning half a deck' s worth a cards.
