Phone surprisingly good.


Recommended Posts

I'm not typically a play on my phone type of guy. However I was in a position today where I couldn't use my tablet and the only thing I could do other than twiddle my thumbs was to play this game on my phone. There were deficiencies I would say with playing it on my phone compared to the tablet but those were related to the the phone rather than the game itself which I thought was actually quite well done. I was hiking and I won't pretend that it was easy to play, but it's nevertheless astounding that I could be out on a hike in the early afternoon Sun on rough terrain and, admittedly with some difficulty, almost finish the scenario. In fact, if other things hadn't come up, I would have finished it easily as I already about ten turns in with a party of six and half closed locations. No, the phone would never be my first choice and probably not a choice at all, but the fact that it's even a possibility is a surprise for me. When I was a kid, stuff like this was science fiction. Literally. Great job on that and, ya never know, I might end up killing som more time with Pathfinder on my phone again. Time being what it is, I probably have to decide whether I like the game more than the boards and, as cool as the people are here, the game wins. So, to save me.some.time, pretend that I wrote a multiple page glowing review of the product!

I've been playing on my phone as well.  It helps to be nearsighted...  My fingers are quite fat indeed, but given the screen real estate limitations, the UI is pretty impressive.  I've been able to do everything I can do on my tablet (sometimes it takes a bit more finessing)...

"I need a lie-down" is the new "I'll be in my bunk..."

Ditto, The only issues I've encountered with the phone:

- Connection issue that cause 59 chests to be temporarily "lost" (the fixed this).

- Fat fingering causing me to fizzle blessings and allies used to explore.

- Battery consumption.

- needing to zoom in on everything
