Cthulhu Realms

My user name doesn’t show up and I can’t play online! And on further investigation I can’t play the missions or vs AI! It’s completely broken!

A few years ago, I was obsessed with the campaign. Recently redownloaded, and it was fun for a day or two but there just isn’t enough ftp content for me. I wish there was just more campaign. Ty for the enjoyment.

Star Realms but Cthulhu! So much fun

Endlessly fun. Best purchase I’ve made in my tablet.

They didn’t do a good job with working around the camera block on Face ID iPhones. Words are cutoff.

In app purchase says available on all devices but that is not so. Either a mistake or an outright lie not sure because because there is no option to contact developer. The game is great I bought this instead of hard copy card games because there so much more to keep track of it seemed like it would be better but $5 per device in the house hold...

I played three other versions of a Necronomicon/H.P. Lovecraft card game that was on different online arcades and they were very easy to learn, even with some of the complex rules about locations, monsters, and, health, and insanity. I thought this was the same card game except as an iOS app. I was so wrong. Here, it’s too many rules for each card in relation to other cards and too many different piles of cards. The graphics are nice, but this was so confusing. 🥴

This game is considerably more confusing/complicated than Star Realms for two reasons. Each card has numerous rules on it, and the wording used is ambiguous at best ("conjuring" for money, "abjuration" for banishing, even using "+" or "-" sanity to indicate "bonus sanity for you" or "attack on opponent"). So the learning curve is definitely steeper. That said, the game is quite fun once you get the hang of it. The worst part though is the "lobby" for online play. No friends list, no list of online players, if you challenge someone who doesn't accept, you can't delete the challenge! And they can't refuse the challenge! So it just stays in your queue indefinitely as far as I can tell. That's just stupid. And then there's a bug such that if you start an online game while you already have challenges waiting, the text saying "waiting for player" is covered up by the game challenges. And you can't delete/stop the process of waiting once you start. Why doesn't this game use the Star Realms lobby system?? That one, while not the best, is still way better than this one.

Yes this isn’t Star Realms. Yes the UI might be a little cluttered looking. Yes the voice acting in the tutorial is sub-par. But it is basically still the same gameplay as Star Realms, just with its own unique twists. Personally I even prefer this game over Star Realms! It’s a shame the developers don’t seem to update this game anymore. I think it offers a fresh perspective, and the artwork & atmosphere is spot-on. Also, whoever does the voice-overs for all White Wizard games’ Campaigns, that man deserves an award or something. Dude has the perfect narrating voice. TL;DR, don’t listen to the negative reviews. If you like Lovecraft, and strategy card games, Cthulhu Realms is your ticket to ride.
