Aeon's End

I’d never played the physical game before, but was curious about it, so I’m happy to see it in digital format where it’s more accessible (plus with less setup and stuff). This app is really well done with regard to how everything is placed on the screen, the music, animations, etc. The game itself is pretty nerve-wracking, but in a good way. The randomized turn-order is a cool idea, which can be scary when the monster gets 2 turns in a row, but it really adds to the whole intensity of it. I sure hope they are working on the expansions!

Another perfect port from handelabra from an excellent boardgame. Congratulations.

I’ve played the table top game, but find all the cards, shuffling, setup, and tokens to be a hassle. Some folks LOVE setting up and manipulating this stuff, but the digital game is much easier and quicker, while retaining ALL the fun of the tabletop version. A huge variety of party size, Nemeses, and cards to select keeps it fresh. I’ve played hundreds of games and still love it. Easy to play 1-4 characters as a single player and get them to work together.

With the latest update, blightlord tainted jades are not working correctly. They stay in the play area at the end of the turn. They don’t destroy properly. It is very frustrating. Please fix! Love playing my favorite board game anytime I want. I wish the undo button was a little more forgiving. There are times I hit the wrong option by mistake, and the next turn order card goes with no way to undo. I try to be more careful, but it’s still a bit frustrating. Still love the game though. Update: Love the expansion. This is my go to game! I never tire of playing it.

One of my favorite board games crippled with the most important feature left out. I got it for $2 thinking it might be worth a play or two as a solitaire game, but nope, it’s awful. Refunded. Spirit Island is even worse with a much more outrageous pricing structure. My only hope is that someone else can license and develop these games properly after Handelabra folds.

Developer response was good, and the issue was resolved. So far, enjoying learning the game. I agree that the interface is not as polished as other apps, but it does not get in the way. --- Original: On my iPad Pro, the app opens to a blank, black screen, and then crashes to the desktop.

The latest build does not load on my iPad Air 2. I see a black screen and then get dumped back out to the Home Screen. Rebooting did not help.

I can not think of a better way they could have implemented this game. There are so many little things they have done to elevate this game. Different music for bosses and sound effects. Some bosses even have effects on screen. It really shows how much thought the developers put into this adaptation of the physical version. Also, if you have not played the physical version this is a very good game to try out. I just hope they add more content because there is so much more that can be added.

Stay clear of the recent add-on, Blightlord! After downloading it, my game now crashes everytime I try to start a new game regardless of who I choose. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling; however, I’m still running into the same problem.

I play Aeon’s End with my friends every week, so when they made the port, I had to buy it. My friend owns all the expansions, but the $60 price tag for the base game was too rich for my blood. Since this was only $9, it was a deal in comparison. I’ve spent hours playing this game. In the tabletop version, you can easily spend 30 minutes setting up all the cards and mages you want. Here, setup takes about a minute, and gives just as much enjoyment. The interface takes some getting used to, but it’s easy when you get the hang of it. I set all the animations to the fastest they can go, speeding up my game. And I really like that the game does all the calculations for you, so that you don’t realize halfway through the game that you were missing out on a card’s special the whole time. I bought the newest expansion with two new bosses and the mage, and I’m excited to play them. Even with the dlc price, it’s still cheaper than buying the base tabletop game.
