I had the same issue with my iPad Mini which initially had me worried but has been running pretty smoothly on my Galaxy Note 5 with just a few of the hiccups from it currently not being optimized.

Bugger (

Loving the game, however don't know whether I can justify buying a new tablet just to play it. Will wait for the next version to decide

[Splutty]

The store won't sell it to me on my Asus TF101, which has Android 4.0.3, which in the requirements is listed as the minimal version

[Mico Selva]

Works just fine on my Galaxy S4 (a phone, not a tablet), except for tiny text and some issues with adding characters to my party (for some reason this only works when I put my phone vertically and then drag their portraits/icons; does not work at all when my phone is held horizontally).

[jtrowell]

If we ignore the known problems with quest mode and my season pass not unlocking anything, the game works fine on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 too, and the bigger screen ('compared to other phones like the S4 above) means that the text size is fine too for those that wonder.

 

Now I'm just waiting for a patch to fix the problems and I will be able to finally enjoy the game 

[Janzu]

While not a device in traditional meaning of the word I'm reporting that Bluestacks (android emulator) works well with the game. Only problems are that small card texts are barely readable (workaround - click card to make it appear big) and some drag-actions (like party builder) are not as responsible as one might hope but once you learn the right way to use them it's as good as iPad (been testing with one, don't know gen though since it's device my gf got from school and haven't bothered with research )

 

So if you need to play the game with PC while waiting for Steam release go ahead and try it

[nalarsen]

It's rather unfortunate to find out your device is not supported after having made the purchase. Is there hope for the iPad2 to be supported? Constant crashes even with effects turned off.

I'd swear someone mentioned this specific tablet...  It's not the version of Android so much as the chipset.  The chip (Tegra?) doesn't support an extension used by the game until you get to the Tegra 3 chips.  (This is from memory, so I may have the specifics wrong.)

It's the same person, and yes, your Android device's chipset must include NEON support.  Sadly, Tegra 2s do not.

[Splutty]

And yeah, I posted a thread about this as well, and got an answer from the developers that the Tegra 2 chipset is not supported, unfortunately.

 

So I guess I'll either wait for the PC version, get a new tablet, or round up some friends, since I have all the games and adventures as actual physical cards anyway

I have been running on PC, windows 7 pro 64 bit, using Amiduos vv2.1.1 android emulatior. Has run successfully for 5 days with NO unexpected crashes.

[jcle666]

You will not believe it, but I'm playing in my old galaxy S, but in my galaxy S3 doesn't work, it dies when starting the game, the gallery or create the team works.

[Kgk4569]

Did you guys stop allowing DLs to phones? My buddy is trying to DL on his iPhone and it says it is not supported.

[Parody]

Android phones are allowed to download the app (If they otherwise meet the requirements) but iPhones are not.

[Kgk4569]

Ah. Sucks to be an iPhone user.

[gracey]

I am running this on my old ipad 2 with effects turned on - zero issues, runs really well...

Would love to know your secret. No luck here.

May be the amounth of backround programs. In older device the system memory may be in very critical level. It other threats Many player has been guite sure that They Are running out of memory in Many situations. Smaller groups have been easier to handle and there has been less crashdowns with smaller amount of heroes in the croup.

I am considering upgrading my iPad mini (1st generation), since I get so many lockups.

The options would be an iPad mini 2 (also known as the first generationn iPad mini Retina) or iPad mini 4.

 

Now the price difference is still pretty substantial here (currently €140), although perhaps the iPad mini 4 goes down in price if Apple announces a new version (probably around September, but that is a bit off).

Both will get an update to iOS 10, but the mini 2 will probably be a bit slow then.

 

What information would be interesting for me:

- for everyone with an iPad mini 2; how many crashes/lockups do you get?

- tot the Devs (if they see this and they know the answer): what do you think about Pathfinder on iOS 10, will it decrease performance a lot? (in other words, do you think the mini 2 will still perform ok, or will you expect that the iPad mini 2 will experience the same performance issues the iPad mini 1 is having now on iOS 9?)

[Hannibal_PJV]

1 Gb memory may be problem. This game or game engine seems to like memory.

[AsocialKnight]

ipad air and Lenovo a7000 (phone) runs good.

[me1034]

Is there a new Android tablet that runs this app amazingly well? I'm returning my ASUS ZenPad 8 S that I bought before this came out. Yes, it runs horribly.

 

What about the Galaxy S2, Shield Tablet or Nexus 9? I see that the Nexus 9 is listed as being tested externally, but how well does it run?

[Hannibal_PJV]

I did use s2 during the beta and it was allmost as fast as the air2 so quite good actually. Sony could be even better, but it is Also much more expensive.

[me1034]

Thanks for the help. Galaxy S2 on order
