Villen des Wahnsinns

This is a great game and I love most everything about it. HOWEVER, of the 22 scenarios available to play, only 2 of them are a 2 difficulty level, and one of them requires an expansion purchase.

Range is defined with "range" everywhere. Such a bad game. Clearly no testing was done with people who didn’t know the game yet. The first scenario we get to the portal and the puzzle makes no sense and we die. Nothing in the whole house gives a clue what the puzzle means. I’m throwing this game away rather than selling so nobody else has to suffer through it.

The game $100, with four scenarios. This would be fine, except that it seems to have three functional scenarios. Escape from Innsmouth is flat out broken. You get one chance to interact with Agent Craven. Then he locks the door and you can’t check again once you have more information. This makes the scenario unwinnable. The game doesn‘t bother telling you this, but you’ve lost. If you do convince him he vanishes with barely any hint where he went. You can find him again, and present the evidence. But you then have to get back to him to let him know the boat has arrived, with nary any hint you need to until you get to the boat without him. So you pay $100 for three functional scenarios and also Escape from Innsmouth.

This is the app companion for the board game and is done very very well. A very Immersive game that requires very little amount of rules to learn and keep up with. This app will be your guide and will allow that one person who always get the job to “manage” the game to finally take a break and enjoy the game like the rest of the group does. I am the games manager for my group. I love this game. There is a good amount of expansions you can get to enhance the re-play. If you get the expansions you will play approx. 20+ games before you ever have to re-play a scenario. And when you do, the scenario will be played and managed differently by the app.

One issue was that the game glitched. It wouldn’t let us confirm the investigator phase. Well in matter of fact it wouldn’t let us confirm anything. Please fix this issue because we ended up not being able to save and just ended up losing all the progress we made.

Only 4 scenarios for the price and zero customization. For that price, you should at least be able to create your own scenarios to play.

Was one of my favorite games but after upgrading to MacOS Ventura is crashes on launch. Hope they consider fixing.

I’ve played with this app before and it worked great. The issue now is there hasn’t been an update and as such these new iPads with the M1 chip do not run this app properly it seems. It is very choppy with the frame rate (sub 5-10 fps) making it nearly unplayable. FFG - please update! The game is still popular and needs support! Maybe a rule book as well. 5 stars otherwise.

This seems to be extremely choppy — near unplayable— with the latest iOS update on both iPhone 13 max pro and latest iPad mini

Fun game and great companion app. Need to add the rulebooks as an in-game resource.
