App support is a dead link. -- Paguayo, 2024-12-20 ### **--- "Glitchy" Really fun game but very glitchy. It keeps making me replay the same turn. -- WildeHeather, 2024-10-06 ### ***** "Best game for quick fun" Been playing this game for years. Helped me in theme park rides, or randomly bored. It’s a colorful potion based strategy game with an expansion for more potions/professors. Playing online, pass-play or versus AI is perfectly challenging. Easy to learn, every play is different, quick timing. Had to leave a review so the developers know I love it. Ty for a good game! -- JewlsTrinh, 2024-09-29 ### **--- "Love the game but the app is so glitchy" The offline play is always fine for me, but that gets stale. So I mostly play online with other players. Almost daily it seems like one of my “in progress” games glitches out. Sometimes when I try to select a marble on my turn, the app force closes. Or it glitches out the player names, scores, etc, it just does these random things that make the game unplayable. So there’s never a guarantee that you’ll even get to finish any online game you join. -- J`J`, 2024-07-27 ### *---- "Online play is non-functional" This game is fine if you just want to play against computer opponents. But it’s absolutely non-functional if you try to play against other people. It had been a while since I tried, and I saw there had supposedly been quite a few “bug fixes.” Nothing is fixed and the game still glitches. It crashes when you try to take your turn, or it doesn’t actually log the turn you took, or it makes you endlessly take the same turn over any over. It’s hard to believe the game has been around so long with so little functionality. -- Theghw, 2024-03-02 ### ***-- "Do Not Buy For Online Multiplayer" This is one of my favorite board games, but unfortunately, the online play is extremely broken. It’s very difficult to try to finally connect to a match with a friend, and once we do, we probably have to redo our returns six times a game at least because when you close the app and come back in, it didn't register the turn. Solo play is fine. -- "Christian Guy", 2024-02-18 ### ****- "5 stars for fun, minus one for bugginess" This is my go-to game on my phone. Really fun! Bought the expansion pack about a year ago and have really enjoyed it. Hoping for more potion expansion options in future! (“Paint” an ingredient a different color while on the board, swap 2 ingredients while still on the board, swap 2 ingredients from anywhere on the board, etc.) Only issue is that multiple updates have been VERY “buggy.” To the point that I can’t plan the online version because it just spins. Sometimes this lasts for weeks or even months until the next update. Sometimes deleting and reinstalling the app helps, but often you just have to wait for the next update to play again. If this gets fixed, I’d rate it 5 starts for sure! -- ListenWithYourEars, 2023-12-20 ### *---- "App constantly not working" This is the 2nd time I’ve had this app and it completely stops working. I love the game itself; I own the board game, it was one of my firsts getting into board gaming and still one of my favorites. But the app needs work! I tried clicking on “app support” and that’s not working, either—just went to a blank page. -- MoeMoe520, 2023-12-19 ### *---- "Not Sure Why They Released A Newer Broken Version" I used to play this game multiple times a day against the computer one the hardest difficulty with the expansion. Now the devs release a very buggy variant of this game that has SOOO many problems, I’m not even sure where to begin. The biggest problem I can point out is that ghost balls never go into the ball track when you discard them, effectively losing 12 balls in the game. -- Mr Sal, 2023-09-17 ### *---- "Used to be great" This game did run great bit now, nothing but issues while playing online against my husband. Game keeps making us retake turns, shows his turn on my screen, but on his it says my turn. Husband starts game with me but it does not show up on mine. So many issues. Please fix. -- Rwwebber4, 2023-07-19 ### *---- "Doesn’t work after update" I took a small break from the game and came back to see they updated to a new online server. Since that update, I have not been able to successfully complete an online game with friends. It will freeze in between turns and my buddy will even finish their game and I am still waiting as if they haven’t even made a move yet. We paid for this app and it’s expansions. It was working fine before. FIX IT PLEASE -- singrrnaband, 2023-07-17 ### *---- "Used to be great" This game was so much fun and then something happened to it. Now nothing ever works. It just quits and freezes or closes. I’m so disappointed because it was a fun game to play with friends too. I wish it would work the way it was back in the winter of 2022. I would have given it 5 stars but this most recent update has rendered it useless. Even trying to play offlineit just quits or freezes no matter how many times I delete or restore the app. -- Lmmjgz81752498, 2023-07-01 ### *---- "Well, we tried. You didn’t!" Well, we tried. The same four of us, we used to play PE a lot. Signed up, two of us can’t join. Tried again, same issue. Your customer support link goes to a 404 page not found. What now, oh horribleguild people? Aptly named much? WE WOULD LIKE TO PLAY! -- zebracadabra, 2023-06-15 ### *---- "Still broken DON’T BUY" The developers continue to disappoint us. The game is back online but you can not invite anyone. Save your money. -- Talasker, 2023-06-14 ### *---- "Can’t see my games or invite friends" I have deleted. Reinstalled. Changed my password. Everything. Even started a new game played one round and then never could access it again. -- will and claire, 2023-06-12 ### ***** "Best Game" So glad it’s back!! -- Habro3, 2023-06-12 ### **--- "Not working" Like the government motto: ‘If it ain’t broke, fix it till it is’ This was a very good game until recently when they updated it. Now the single player game works but multiplayer is iffy and usually won’t work. Too bad. Used to be a good game. Please keep fixing it till it isn’t. -- Wildmanbob, 2023-06-09 ### *---- "I didn’t agree to beta test this app" Updated for version 3.2.3: Still many bugs. Wasn’t worth finishing the one game I attempted to play. Potion of Prismatic Joy still extremely difficult to put marbles into the flask. Potion of Lavamancing locked up when I only had two marbles of a column to remove. I force quit the app and resumed. The app returned to a much earlier point in the game. I am forced to play the red character, but when I start the game, the opening screen shows both the AI and me as the yellow character. Then the game starts and I’m the red character. It would be nice if I could be the green or blue character and rotate through the other colors for the AI. I’ve updated to iOS 16.5. A few notes: I only play the base game in offline mode against AIs. I am on an iPhone X running iOS 16.4.1 (a). That’s all the specific info I’m volunteering because, as I stated in my title, I didn’t agree to participate in beta testing this app. Yeah, that’s how egregious some of the bugs are. This doesn’t even feel like a release candidate, it’s that bad. I don’t know what is going on behind the scenes. Maybe Asmodee Digital had unrealistic deadlines for the app to go live. Maybe all of Horrible Guild’s dev and testing budget was spent on the online aspect of the game. (I’m guessing that’s where the sellable user data/money is.) Maybe Horrible Guild is embracing its name too literally. Maybe there’s some other combination of behind-the-scenes events that caused this buggy-as-fsck app to go live. I don’t know. All I know is releasing this app as it stands was the wrong call. It’s like y’all didn’t even bother testing basic offline functionality. But y’all need to fix it. -- imperatrix mundi, 2023-06-07 ### *---- "Recent update broke app" I’ve been playing this game for years on and off. This most recent update reset all of my player achievements that I’ve accumulated over the years, the music in the game no longer works, and gameplay lags/glitches despite force-closing and having no other apps open. I don’t know what the developers were going for, but this is not an “update”, it is a major downgrade. It’s not a problem with my phone, since I have the most recent iPhone running the most current iOS version. Extremely disappointed. Do better, developers. -- J Mercury, 2023-05-30 ### *---- "App won’t load anymore" Loved the game but about two weeks ago the app stopped working. It doesn’t go past the loading screen anymore so I can’t play it. It’s very frustrating and doesn’t seem like the developer is planning on releasing an update to fix it. -- BlueTurtleLion, 2023-04-20 [View all Potion Explosion reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Potion Explosion In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | The Fifth Ingredient | $1.99 | ## Potion Explosion Discovered Keywords -
