Mystic Vale for Positive User Reviews

✓ Good but…The audio doesn’t work when I’m playing. I have all settings enabling it and still nothing. I want to hear it…..Jessicapandora713Version: 4.0.2

✓ Great Game!This is a very good and accurate representation of the board game. It plays quickly and is fun..Mary9078Version: 4.0.2

✓ Restore purchase button ? Please fixWhere is the restore purchase button? Good game but i reinstalled the game and fear to tap the purchase buttons again as i may be charged twice for the in app purchase.OrionslegendVersion: 3.0.0

✓ An excellent Dominion replacementFull disclosure: we own every set of Dominion expansions ever produced and most of the promo cards as well. That being said, it’s nice to have an on-the-go competitive CCG, and now that we’ve discovered Mystic Vale, this one might be it. I confess, it’s hard to imagine how this “card modification” mechanic translates out into cardboard, but I’m thinking we might have to also buy it just to see. Impressive that the AI can easily beat me at medium difficulty without cheating (at least not visibly) and based on the excellent game mechanics, I’m about to buy all the expansions after getting done writing this review. I like how they’ve exchanged the (critical) card trashing mechanic in Dominion with the card modification one, and I like the “push your luck” Blackjack mechanic to risk drawing extra cards. Until the current owners of the Dominion CCG intellectual property figure out how to re-introduce it into the mobile space, anyone looking for that kind of fix can look here..DoctortruongVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Great App, but Limited...One thing I love, it’s digital board games and considering the saved time in shuffling, love Deck-Builders. Beyond being a functional app, this one has great production values. The core game is enjoyable and you get the first expansion for free. Fact is, there’s very little I can complain about. But there are things... The single player is sparse, forcing you to face down AI opponents with selectable difficulty and this is terrific. Multiplayer is another ding as there are no Pass and Play options. This is a major feature missing for my purposes since the wife and I often play app games against one another during longer waits. Without this feature, this game will get significantly limited play. Which is such a shame..Sheppy7Version: 1.1

✓ Amazing Digital Representation!This is a great card game unlike any other. It’s sort of a deck-building game, but instead of building your deck with new cards, you’re enhancing the cards in your deck. It’s a card-building game and it’s lots of fun to play. The tutorial is well designed to help you understand quickly. It’s not complicated, but it’ll take you a couple of tries to get used to it. There is a physical version of the game, and this represents it well managing the scores and the rules very nicely. I highly recommend this game if you like deck-builders and are interested in trying something a little different..BrotherBobbyGVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Loved the app so much that I purchased the physical card gameThis is the game I play the most on my iPhone. It is complex, you gotta think about how you open the game and what tactic you will emphasize : will you try to mitigate spoiled cards? Will you try to put as many cards on the field as possible? Or one of many other ways to strategize? Great game..MobuliVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Excellent intro to card building gamesThis is a really good adaptation of a card building game with pretty graphics, a simple UI, and the varied gameplay you would expect. Well worth the money..GypsymacgyverVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Fun, good UI, faithful port, but battery killerHaving only played Mystic a few times, I bought the app on a lark, and I'm pleased. For six bucks, the game looks good, plays well (though I wish the opponent turns were a bit faster), and is perfect for my commute. Only complaint is the severe battery drain (even with the "battery saver" setting on)..MarcinXtinaVersion: 1.1

✓ Great Game, Online Multiplayer Needs WorkFantastic game. Multiplayer is a weak spot... 1) There are few to no available multiplayer matches. Matching finding needs to be retooled. 2) Multiplayer kicks you off online games if you close the app or are idle for too long even with turn time set to off. You should be able to pick up and play an online game with a friend whenever you want... as it stands you have to keep the app open and play it until completion without doing anything else. Matches should be able to be played over days or weeks if needed and saved on a cloud server. 3) Friends list. Needs to happen to challenge friends directly to matches. 4) Multiplayer is buggy and will freeze, kick a player out or just not synch up between players. Has ruined many a game for my wife and I. Overall great game (I own the table top version as well). Online Multiplayer needs a lot more work to be viable. Thanks!.ForceLightningVersion: 3.1.0

✓ Keeps crashing mid game.If it didn’t crash every single time, it would be a 5 star..RHTOWMVersion: 2.1.1

✓ Great game, but it crashes all the timeI absolutely love this game. I own a bunch of the actual cards, and was ecstatic to see the app. Only problem is that the game crashes constantly. I’m playing on an iPad Air, and it the crashes between turns a lot. Especially right before end game scoring. Nothing is more annoying than having to reload the game right at the end. I tried playing it on my phone, but the writing is too small for my old eyes. Would give it the full 5* treatment if the crashing issues were fixed. Oh, and I’d love to see more expansions!.WiddlewadeVersion: 4.0.2

✓ I don’t review many apps but......this game and app are amazing. The only downside is that the base game itself doesn’t have enough content to be interesting. With the in app expansions though, it is my favourite deck builder (ok it’s technically “card crafting” but it’s the same enjoyable feedback loop). This app made me purchase the actual card game and ALL expansions including Conclave!.Level_upVersion: 3.0.3

✓ Fantastic gameLikely the best deck builder here. Takes a bit to learn and expansions are a must. I have a question to developer - do you plan to add more expansions?.Les-1981Version: 4.0.2

✓ Addictive but hard on eyesI just learned this game and then found it was available to play offline on my iPad. So happy. Loving it. My only complaint is there is so much to see that the numbers and icons are small and I do find myself squinting often..PNeubertVersion: 3.0.3

✓ App won’t open...I downloaded the app last night and played a game of it. It’s fantastic! Now the app won’t open :( tried it on my iPad and it consistently crashes right towards the end of my game. Great game, horrible app..DavekalineVersion: 2.1.1

✓ Good game,worth the price.Having played the physical game, this is a great translation. In addition to the pass and play I would like to see an asynchronous mode for multiplayer. I haven’t been able to get a multiplay game in yet and it’s frustrating..HavakavulaVersion: 2.1.1

✓ FrenchFrench version it’s possible for you????.EthebanVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Crashes Galore!Fantastic game but with expansions just crashes and dumps me back on the home screen too much on my iPad Air. Luckily the game saves every turn but is getting tiresome having to restart multiple times just to finish a match! Already got this on the switch (much more expensive) but at least it’s stable there!.Gordrik666Version: 4.0.1

✓ Good!Have the tabletop game as well. I play this so I can solo more easily (no setup or cleanup time). One or two little issues with specific cards, but a very good conversion to digital play nonetheless. Very happy..The nebVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Excellent Game!An excellent rendition of the card crafting game I have grown to love. A friend of mine introduced me to Mystic Vale, and now it is one of my favorite games, and said friend and I play it whenever I visit. Easy to play, yet lots of depth. When can we expect to see more expansions?.Long John 1964Version: 4.0.2

✓ Good GameGreat game. Having a lot of fun with it. Four stars only because it will randomly close down. I’ve played probably twelve games and it’s happened twice. Saved my progress though and hopped right back in. AI so far has been a challenge which is always a perk. Highly recommend..Z3alousZ3braVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Great gameReally enjoying it. Distinctive and different from other deck builders. Buy the expansions though as they add a lot of depth..Goonerman158Version: 3.0.3

✓ Fun game. Love the expansionsAdd more expansions and I will buy them. Online Multiplayer works but is a little unstable. If a player drops it gets taken over by AI. That’s good but when they come back they can’t re-join. It’s hard to finish a game without someone eventually dropping..Bronco505Version: 4.0.1

✓ Fun iterationWould be great if they updated for play on Apple TV as well as iPhone/ipad. Seems unfair to need a pc or Nintendo switch to play on your television but that’s just because I want my cake and to eat it too when I can’t play my physical copy.JungleJim1985Version: 4.0.2

✓ It’s good, but kind of annoying.I would give this game 5 stars, but there is one thing that kind of annoys me, it’s the fact that the hard mode computer seems to ALWAYS have the perfect turn. It doesn’t make the game hard it just makes it annoying to play against..ThailiasVersion: 3.1.0

✓ Where’s the help?I’ve updated my 3-star rating based on zarro online help for odd questions to a 5. I figured out the issue on my own - or at least don’t think it’s as bad as I thought. And while support on this app is still really lacking (esp given the quality of what they wrote) the game is gorgeous, fun, and stable enough to deserve 5 stars compared to what else is out there. I just hope they finally get a blog, faq, or *SOMETHING* online for us w questions where the manual and tutorials fail.Joey_shmoeyVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Looks & plays greatReally like the artwork & the game always runs really smoothly. My only quibble would be the same as for other game apps, in that I would like to know more about what my AI opponent is doing - exactly what advancement it has just taken, it’s ability & exactly what card it was added to etc. I know there is a means of seeing the AI’s final deck at the very end of the game but that’s too little to late. Other than that I can only recommend this app..NukeEm7Version: 4.0.2

✓ Amazing!Was not familiar with this game but I love board/card games and grabbed this one. Not only is it incredibly fun, has a great nature theme, really interesting and multi-layered card strategies, but its beautiful to look at and amazingly polished. Fantastic job! There really is nothing negative I could say, but If I could make a suggestion (mainly because I play offline) would be a games played win/loss tracker. Really thats just more icing on an already very delicious cake! Edit: few more observations. Theres a card ( cant remember the name) but it lets you activate it if you were to spoil...but It always ends up spoiling anyway! Card glitch? Also, im always playing as Lightbringers. It would be interesting somehow if each side had some kind of strength/ weakness and therfore a reason to pick other sides? Still an awesome game, bought the expansion, great stuff!.BletzoVersion: 2.1.1

✓ Superb conversion from cards to codeSo much effort has demonstrably gone into this app, not only in faithfully reproducing the look, feel and dynamics of the original game (and a couple of expansions so far) and ensuring it functions smoothly and consistently, but also in the extra little details - the unique sounds when you purchase a card and subtle animation of the art when you “touch” one. Truly a delight to play and sets a high standard for digital board game conversions, thanks!.UltimaorbVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Relaxing and engagingThis game is such a pleasure to play. Although it may seem daunting at first, it’s easy to learn with plenty of depth. The AI seems to play at a great level and the graphics are gorgeous. I will be playing this for a long time and plan on buying all the expansions. I really hope they address the few issues listed below and release even more expansions. Pros: 1. Amazing art direction (would love to have an option to always have the cards animate instead of only when it’s hovered over) 2. Easy to learn, hard to master 3. Great AI (I always love a challenge and appreciate when devs take the time to program competent AI’s) 4. Unique deck building gameplay 5. First expansion included for free Cons: 1. Cannot lock camera onto middle overview position while scrolling through and buying cards (I really want to play with a zoomed out camera on my iPad to utilize the bigger screen space) 2. Crashes in extended gameplay sessions (~1.5 hours with 3rd gen iPad Air. Memory leak? Game does do autosaves though) 3. Cannot view deck composition (maybe intentional? You can see the discard pile and calculate. But if that’s the case, you might as well just let players see what’s left in the deck... I don’t particularly find digging through the discard pile to be fun) Even with these cons, this is definitely a recommended buy. I’m happy to have discovered it..KiPhishVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Exceeded expectationsReally impressed with this. The physical game always looked great, thrilled to see the devs made the UI on par with it. This dazzles. The card animations were a bonus surprise. The touch controls are really responsive, certainly one of the better implementations I've come across for tabletop ports. Looking forward to seeing more expansions in time..Beat stallVersion: 1.1

✓ Great playIt faithfully recreates the experience even down to simulating cards going into sleeves which is a nice touch for something that could have taken an easier way. It also takes all the adding and mana tracking away. The only downside is the game is over way too soon..CrispeeVersion: 3.0.0

✓ Does not follow the rulesOn nearly all accounts, this is a great adaptation and a great app. The biggest problem I have is it does not respect the rules for the planting phase. The rules do not state that you are required to push until you have 3 decay symbols, but this is what the app will do automatically without your input and there is no way to disable it. Most of the time, this is what you want to do, but not always. If you have some cards in your deck with multiple decay symbols and you already have two visible, the app will force you to spoil. Some cards in the Vale of the Wild, namely Wolf Rider and Beastbrother Hunter, give you mana or VP tokens the fewer cards you have in your field. If this is the first card in your field, it could be a good decision to stop immediately, even if you have no decay symbols present, but the app doesn’t give you that option. This happened in my last game and was very frustrating. These aren’t rare edge cases; some cards and strategies around them are much weaker in the app than they are in the real game..ParamesisVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Digital Beats PhysicalExcellent representation of the game. Very handy that your score and bonuses are all kept track for you, makes an otherwise unruly game quite simple to keep track of. My only complaint is that when you have an opportunity to discard a card from your field, there’s no opportunity to browse your field to see if it is truly worthwhile..ApphunterliteVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Cool concept!Never played the board game but I love the concept. The art is gorgeous and the music sets just the right mood. All around well-polished game. Keep up the good work.MellodrameVersion: 2.2.0

✓ Very fun!Update- I realized I was using an amulet that forces me to push every turn. When I first played this game I liked it so much I bought all expansions. But there seems to be a bug where several times per game when it gets to my turn the on-deck card automatically pushes and causes me to often automatically spoil. This is very frustrating when it happens late in a close game. Not sure if I’m missing something or if it’s a bug in one of the expansions.JdirncirkehVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Great game with a couple things to fixI’ll start off by saying that this game is fantastic. It’s fun and adds a lot to the deckbuilding game archetype. I got the game for my iPad and love it; however, on my iPhone, the game crashes constantly, making it nearly unplayable. Furthermore, I bought the expansion pack on my iPad, but to use the collection, I need to rebuy it on my iPhone, which seems silly since it’s all under the same Game Center account. The game would be perfect if I could get my collection on both devices and it didn’t crash all the time on the iPhone. I look forward to future expansions on the game!.PacMansBallsVersion: 2.2.0

✓ Love the app, miss updates and other expansionsIPad is my favorite implementation of MV. I really wish they’d bring the additional 3 expansions to digital..Infinitely curiousVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Near perfect game with only synchronous playThis game has got to be one of the cooler deck builders in the past few years. My friend and I *love* the deck building mechanic where you can craft semi-custom cards with a different top, middle, and bottom card section. Highly recommended! My only complaint against the game is a lack of asynchronous multiplayer: both my friend and I have to be sitting down and logged in at the same time to play. Deck builders make a perfect async multiplayer game in most cases, and I’m not sure why they don’t have the ability to do that here though. This would be a 5-star staple in my game collection if they add some way to play our turns throughout the day instead of synchronously. If the devs read these reviews: please add this kind of multiplayer ability! Otherwise, still an amazing game. Thanks for releasing this devs!.BEinCOVersion: 3.1.0

✓ Pretty GoodBest thing is the presentation and the price. 6 bucks for base game and 3 expansions. The A.I. on hard seems rigged. I’ve played this game a lot and it crushes me. Overall happy with the purchase..Dugstep89Version: 4.0.2

✓ Fantastic!This game is great in person, and great in this app! Thank you!.BecksadoodleVersion: 4.0.2

✓ FantasticHighly recommended! This is such an incredible table top game and the electronic verse is very well done. Thank you!.Ksmooth55Version: 4.0.2

✓ 5-star game, bad networkingThis needs a local multipeer connectivity-based Apple TV app. Sitting right next to my wife, playing, the networking layer is unstable enough to sometimes get us into an inescapable state where it’s nobody’s turn..Jessy CatterwaulVersion: 3.1.0

✓ Awesome gameRemember that the game automatically draws for you. You just pick which card to buy. But this is a very fun game..Blink625Version: 3.1.0

✓ A favorite, but could we adjust the speed?Love this game, but the AI’s turns go so fast that I don’t even catch what they are buying. Also, I sometimes hit the wrong bottom and spoil because I’m viewing the discard pile. It should not be possible to push nor end planting when the display is on your discard or the AI’s board..ValleyvaleVersion: 2.1.1

✓ Great game!This is an interesting and fun game, and the app looks awesome and it plays perfectly. No complaints..PaulyRiddumsVersion: 3.1.0

✓ Terrific adaptation of a great gameLove it! So glad I purchased this. Translates the spectacular card game perfectly. I would recommend it to any fan of light-to-medium card games like Magic: The Gathering, Hearthstone, or similar games. I have two small complaints: 1. The writing is a bit small on my iPhone Pro Max. 2. On ONE level above Easy the AI tends to swoop in and score ten or fifteen points on its last round for the win a LOT. But maybe I just need to git gud..Fawlty2099Version: 4.0.2

✓ Outstanding digital version of my favorite gameI own everything for the physical Mystic Vale game...all the promos, of the expansions, the game mat, etc. It is my favorite game. I get so immersed in it when playing. This is a great digital version of the game. Having already known how to play MV, I just picked up and started playing without a learning curve. I hope you release content for some of the other expansions. I would love to see Leaders introduced. I am actually playing the digital version as practice to hone my skills when playing with friends with my physical copy. Thank You!.RLC819Version: 2.1.1

✓ Can’t wait for more expansions!Absolutely love it. Great tutorials. Beautiful, clean detailed design. Elegant playing interface. Makes me want to buy the real card decks, but I know I would never have anyone to play with. Can’t wait for more expansion packs.❤️.Bloop de doop 88Version: 4.0.2

✓ Great game (But)Dear Devs Great game however it crashes on iPhone 6.... Please can you fix bug.... Very interesting game play... great game... Thank you Anthony Harris.Anthonyharris1971Version: 4.0.2

✓ Good port of a great tabletop gameI have always loved the physical version of this game so I was really pleased to find that they did such a good job porting it to digital. Great value for the price and I look forward to seeing some of the expansions in the future..RBWestVersion: 1.1

✓ Love the gameI love the card game and now having a digital copy is great to play with friends during quarantine!.Swonk_YdobonVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Great game!We love the physical game, and are very excited by the quality of the digital port to mobile. We thought there might be a couple issues, but it turns out we had misinterpreted the rules! Only one complaint. It’s a shame when a digital board game port doesn’t include asynchronous multiplayer. We want to be able to take a turn (say on a coffee break), then come back a couple hours later to the same game for the next turn. Otherwise, great game, and we’ve been recommending it to all our friends!.CodeDeepBlueVersion: 2.1.1
