The AI is very stupid and only does bad trades without attacking face. I like the card design and I am having fun farming.

Purchased this game for myself and my bf. Attempted to play the VR version. Spent 2 hours trying to play together with no luck. We were both able to be in the same online lobby but unable to pass that area, continued searching for players. Very disappointed!! Not worth the $10

I gotta say this is a nice vr thing to do!

there are two side games but besides that you dont have to use movements in the two general modes, its really fun to play.

I tried to play online but couldn’t find enough players, this game can also be played without vr, so hopely in the future this will get a nice public

The questions you have to answer are from historical, and about very recent things or people to, its not always easy to answer on the sport questions if you are from a different country. i got second place against AI and im not american :D

Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game

Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game

Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game is set in the Dresden Files universe, with characters and plot mechanics from the books becoming cards that work for or against you. Each book is its own set of obstacles, advantages, foes and cases that become the board that Dresden and his allies try to overcome.

If you are the kind of player that runs away from a challenge because of a bloody nose, Dresden Files is not for you. You will lose in the beginning, a lot. I know I did. To win takes elements of both skill and luck, like any other game with cards and dice. However, it seems the more I play, the luckier I get … hmm, that could be the skill factor of being able to recognize the better plays to make and better risks to take.

This is very much a Marmite game, you’ll either love it or hate it with equal measure. For me its a winner, a game I can turn on anytime I have a few minutes to kill and don’t want to be bogged down in something more involved. and if you’ve played this game in its real world form you’ll appreciate all the Automation this digital rendition brings.

Pros: Its nicely put together and contains all the characters a Harry Dresden fan could wish for the mechanics of the card battles are easy to learn but difficult to really master which makes each victory one to be savored.

RISK: Global Domination

RISK: Global Domination

This game is very well thought out and could be fun to play. I’ve been looking for a long time to play Risk with others online. I started playing Risk in 1968, when the game still had wooden pieces. I’ve played this 1968 game hundreds of times with my friends over the last 50+ years. This online game is nice, too, because it has other variations of play - other maps and settings, etc. This keeps the game from getting boring from everybody always trying to take Australia at the beginning of the game. But I found much to my DISMAY that the dice are RIGGED in favor of players who seem to have played the game here longer than me. I’m an accountant by trade, so I’m an expert in probabilities. Over and over again (4 out of 5 times), I’m either the fifth or sixth player out of six to get my first turn. Almost never am I first or second to start. Even worse, many times (too many to count) I have overwhelming odds of capturing a crucial country from an opponent (i.e. 9 armies to 1, or 12 armies to 2, etc.), and I lose ALL my armies, and the opponent comes through completely unscathed. The game program tells you the odds of capturing the country that you’re attacking - 75%, 80%, 90% & 95% - but dozens of times I EAT IT and I LOSE EVERYTHING just trying to take that one country. The game even claims that the program evens out the odds somewhat so these big losses can’t happen. But constantly I have the odds overwhelming in my favor, but it doesn’t work out that way at all. After playing the old board game with REAL DICE hundreds of times, losing 9 armies to 1 only happened ONCE, way back in 1974 (I remember it to this day, I was so P/O’ed), but I estimate this has happened to me 150 times so far with THIS game, out of playing 200 games. This really sucks, and its made me so mad I’ve considered deleting this game from my library! Maybe though, if I keep playing it the odds for my dice rolling will improve. We’ll see…

I feeled the need to make a review because this game get too much hate for what it is.

Yes there’s a premium mode that you can get for 10€ so you can play as long as you want.

So it’s not really a free to play but you can still play 2-3 games per day against other player and it’s unlimited against bots.

You have access to EVERY maps even if you don’t own them. You just need the DLC to HOST a game but you can still join someone who own theses maps.

It’s not a demo (people said this in some review) because you can play the entire game and even play to the DLC maps. The game is limited in a way that you can’t play as long as you want but hey… It was a mobile game so ofc things are not the same on mobile. There’s some change to be made are people can share their though about it (and they should) but this game is what it is supposed to be, it’s Risk. The devs seems to care about the opinion of the community and are trying to improve the game for the PC gamers we are.

MineSweepVR

MineSweepVR

MineSweepVR is based on the popular classic game, “Minesweeper”. But this time you dive into the virtual world to find the mines!

Features:

  • Single player

The game as you know it. Find the mines on an easy, medium or hard minefield.

  • Local multi-player

Now you can find the mines with two (or more) people. One of you will be in the virtual world, but he/she won’t have the necessary information to discover where the

mines are. That information is available to the people watching the screen. You have to communicate together to find the mines!

  • Custom Minefields

Other than the standard minefields, you also have the chance to make up your own minefield. Define how large the field will be and how many mines you have to find.

The Captain is Dead

The Captain is Dead

Fantastic. I’d never played the physical board game, but this was so much fun I went out and bought a copy.

Sure, I’m not a fan of the art style, and the fires on the ship are maybe a bit confusing - since they are purely aesthetic and don’t actually indicate problems, yet when you see fire you tend to assume there are problems. But these are minor points.

In The Captain is Dead, you play an intrepid crew of as many as 6 struggling to fend off ever-encroaching oblivion as your spaceship disintegrates around you. After each crew member takes their turn, another disaster strikes. Maybe the ship’s teleporter overloads, maybe an alien spacecraft attacks, or maybe a hostile raiding party beams in. If your shields go below 0%, you’re dead. If 13 invaders beam onto the ship, you’re dead. And if you spend so many resources avoiding those things that you can’t fix your ship’s jump core in time … guess what, you’re dead.

First of all, let me just say that I own the original board game copies of the TCID and its second episode (Lockdown), so you could say that I’m already a fan of the franchise. This is also the very first review I’ve written outside of an educational capacity, so I hope that you all find it helpful.

I. OVERVIEW

The Captain is Dead pits you (and a team of your buddies if you so choose) against an unknown alien enemy that attacks your ship for reasons unknown. Unfortunately for you, your captain, who could probably get you out of this situation with little to no trouble at all, has died (hence the title). You could escape by making a jump into light speed, but your jump core (or hyper drive) is on the fritz, and you don’t have R2-D2 to help you reactivate it. Therefore, it is now up to you to utilize the talents of the remaining crew to make all necessary repairs to the jump core, while mitigating disaster by fending off alien intruders and preventing the destruction of your oh-so-delicate ship.

Heroes of Normandie

Heroes of Normandie

Heroes of Normandie is a theme fest with a decent game behind it, and if you buy the theme, it works really well. Addictingly well. Slitherine has added just enough tactical meat to the comic book meets classic Hollywood war flick mix to make it good grognard candy. If you like fun, light thematic war games, HoN is all that.

I can’t say if it’s as good, worse or better than the boardgame implementation, but it stands alone, as is. If the promised content is added, I expect it to get better, and it might hit that sweet spot between depth and complexity that allows for a title to get attention from gamers who wouldn’t look twice at a traditional hex and counter tactical game, even a fairly light one.

This game needs more recent reviews. So….

I bought it yesterday while on sale after they released the new action cards.

I’m happy with it. I’ve played board war games for years and even have many from “back in the day”. This is different in that you are not simulating a real battle but solving a tactical challenge. Other reviews mention that and it helped me adjust to the game and enjoy it more.

Based on the other reviews a LOT has changed. I’ve monitored the forums for weeks and noticed the devs are responsive and receptive. Players can be pretty demanding and impatient. The devs seem to take it all in stride.

The programming is fine. A great way to train Reversi. My one complaint is that the game doesn’t remember the settings, so you have to turn off the music every time you play and I assure you the music is horrible enough that this is an unpleasant oversight.

There are 8 well varied AI’s to play against as well as some challenging endgames! The multiplayer is only local so if I could add anything it would be an online mode, either with the ability to create a private lobby for friends or host open rooms.
