    Deep, philosophical, and terrifying. This guy writes like nobody else in gaming. Absolute master of his craft.

  • Excellent game on a convenient platform

    Go in blind. Read everything. Take risks. You will achieve your dreams. It says something that one of the only ways to get good mobile games is to port them from PC, but here we are.

  • Stick with it

    This game is perplexing, and I don’t have the hang of it, but that’s part of the fun and intrigue. I think you should let yourself die in the game a few times (instead of restarting fi things are going badly) before deciding about purchasing the DLCs, because dying might unlock some of those routes anyway.

  • Great game. Absolutely addictive. Even though I lost all my progress.

    Don‘t know why I suddenly lost all my progress last time when I tried to play the game. Pretty sure I saved. Frustrated. But this is really a good game and it has great descriptions and text.

    I’ve never been a big fan of board/card games, but I do love games that immerse the player in their world. This game has an H.P. Lovecraft feel, a mixture of reality and fantasy. As a card game it relies heavily on art, writing, and music to give the player an immersive experience and fortunately these are all first rate. At the start the game can be frustrating as their are no instructions. However it is well designed to reward the player for experimenting. You begin with only one action available: Work. Then Study and Dream become possible. Try different actions using different cards. Reading and enjoying the tone as your story unfolds is a big part of the game.

  • Keep Feeling Fascination!

    (Actually, don't! It's a game over!) I had many false starts with this game, and I relied a lot on the wiki, particularly when it came to accessing and navigating the Mansus. But the other reviews are right: once you figure out how to play this, it's addictive, with really dark, complex, and interesting lore. Some tips starting out would have been welcome. One is to pause a lot (read everything and try to take note of the different symbols on cards, almost all of which have tooltips if you click them): you will probably pause every 10-30 seconds of active game time. Another is that you don't necessarily need to drag and drop: if you have a verb open, you can double tap a card to send it to the verb, and as long as you can put it in that slot, it will go (I had something like 60 hours in the game before I noticed this, and noticing earlier would have saved me some arm strain). A third is that if you don't know what goes into a slot, you can tap the slot, and the associated cards will glow. None of these amount to spoilers, but they are very helpful quality of life concepts. Really hoping for a Book of Hours release on iOS! But I understand that any kind of port has to come after the PC release is smoothed out.

  • One of my all-time favorites!

    I have come back to this game over and over again for years. Anytime I can’t quite figure out what game I feel like playing, the answer is typically this one. It scratches an it h unlike any other game.

  • Most iOS games are garbage. This one is a rare exception.

    Most iOS games are garbage pay-to-win games aimed at a casual audience. Mobile developers have zero respect for players as they use so-called “dark patterns” to make you effectively gamble online, just in the context of a game. Alexis Kennedy and weather factory are a rare exception. This game is fantastic. And it’s a one-time-purchase with entirely optional and reasonably-priced DLCs that actually add quality content. This game is very slow paced and heavy on the reading. So it is not for everybody. But if you like games that make you think, you’re gonna love this one.

  • A better tutorial would be really nice.

    4 hours in and still have no idea what I’m doing. My spread is a mess and way too many things are happening. I did some stuff that I have no clue what they did, and there’s things that giving me things that I don’t know where they go, so I just random things in places where I assume they go and somehow it’s doing something. It’s a very confusing game.
