✓ Fun and ChallengingOutstanding app! I've played the board game and fell in love with it. The art is amazing. Lots of fun!.Version: 1.3
✓ Good overall, but...I'm glad this hame exists and I'm very glad to see that the developers seem to be regularly updating it. That being said, there are some features missing. No local multiplayer; as of now you can only play solo (one lane) or multiplayer ONLINE. Online multiplayer is good and all, but this game is begging to just have a simple local co-op mode. Or just have solo play with 1-4 lanes. Either works. I'm a huge fan of the board game, and this is a good port. Just needs that one addition..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Like a FPS like Lost Planet/Halo/MarathonHas the feel of the old time dungeon crawling alien first person shooters but mix in some deck building action. Love the card designs; enemy units; different weapons. Great game would love an Xbox one port with achievements..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Excellent game. No bugs I can seeA well made game of co-op troop management. Usually I find deck builders to have pasted on theme but this one has mechanics that decently reflect the theme it is trying to convey. Though this is weakened with the psyonics and gen mid expansion a bit I feel. A little practice has us winning easily at 2 division. Game is rather hard at 1 division. The difficulty settings are well gauged with easy being quite easy, normal being a decent challenge and hard being insane. I definitely suggest getting the elites expansion. It’s a couple bucks but gives a lot more theme and strategy to the game by allowing surviving troops to level up. My only complaint involves the UI for activating the expansions you have bought. There are expansions to the base game, an expandalone game, and expansions to that other game. Some of the expansions work with the base game some work on both and some only on the second game. This is the nature of the game, very complicated, but the UI doesn’t help at all by explaining the difference between playing Onslaught with the Dreadmire expansion and playing Dreadmire with the Onslaught expansion. It’s very confusing with no information to decipher the puzzle..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Recommended!I was pretty impressed. I've played only a handful of sessions but I really have enjoyed it. I would say the quality of the digital app is pretty good, compared to my expectations of board game apps these days. The mechanics of the game were also pleasantly surprising--the player powers seem kinda weak but make sense in practice. The scaling is also fun, but beware: the enemy can, and will, totally eat your face off if the cards don't go your way--but that's a staple of both deck builders and co-op games and isn't that big of a detractor. I haven't delved as much into the online multiplayer but look forward to it soon. Do I recommend it? Yep. It's a well implemented app and a neat take on deck building that keeps me coming back..Version: 1.0
✓ Great gameA very fun twist on the deck building game type. The art is amazing well worth a try..Version: 1.3
✓ New favourite time killerGreat deck building game. Well worth the asking price. Hopefully there will be some expansions :-).Version: 1.0.6
✓ Great deck builderThanks for fixing the card graphics glitch. This is a great and challenging deck builder with some unique mechanics..Version: 1.8.4
✓ Awesome game, very fun!Wonderful combination of card and tower defense, highly recommended ... plus it reminds me of the all time great Aliens movie!.Version: 1.4.2
✓ Great fun overcoming the challenge!I am unsure why players are complaining over difficulty (solo play) since I can't imagine the game having longevity if you could beat it a good percentage of the time. For solo play, you must be sure to utilize the different skills of your division as the rounds increase since the number of division abilities climbs as the difficulty does. However they kick off a single card which is sometimes hard to remember to use. My recommendation is to use the science lab. The second ability allows you to do two damage every time you play a science card which is ridiculous. If any other readers are wanting a leg up, purchase the grafting lab add on. Your first round survival rate is greatly increased with cards like the arm blade which does one auto damage at the beginning of every fight. I beat hard with no damage to my base with Grafting on the first try after a few normal Grafting games. I have defeated hard with Science Lab as well. Although my base only had 4 of 15 hp left. Highly recommended..Version: 1.0
✓ This game just keeps getting better.1 star reviewer turned Huge fan. These Dev's really care about this game. They keep adding more great content. They fixed everything we requested in solo play. It is now possible to pass and play as well. I'm hooked!.Version: 1.4
✓ Good but...This is a good game lets start off with that. I agree with balance issues. One hand you don't want a game that is always beatable, and on the other it would be nice to win once! I have played over a few dozen times but have yet to last past the 7the round more than once.... To be fair it may be better with more than one player. Pass and play would be ideal since I prefer not to roll the dice with whom I would get with the online game option mode. My score was going to be a 3 out of 5 stars but realized that even with the game being a little rough around the edges it does not take away from the game play once you understand it. So 4 it is. One important note is I tried to purchase the .99 expansion but apparently it failed as it never seemed to take..?.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Amazing!This is a great translation to the real game! Solo mode is really tough tho. I can only make it to round 7 so far. It would be nice if they made it to where you can play with NPCs..Version: 1.0
✓ Fantastic Game, App ImprovingGreat card game and the app makes it very easy to play, keeping all honest on the rules. The multiplayer is a little long and really helps to be in the same room. Typing while playing is difficult. Overall, great scifi game with combat and aliens!.Version: 1.0
✓ Challenging game! Crying out for local play or pass n playI want to play this with friends, at least as pass n play or better still, with both of us on our own iPads. I am not interested in online. However as a solo game it is still great, really tough, good visuals and simple mechanics, you can also play as the other players by simply controlling their resources- it works fine. This is a very good implementation of the board game I.E. a thematic alien vs man survival deckbuilder, easy to learn and a game takes between 5-25 minutes, although only if you survive that long! Not won yet, not because of poor or unrealistic AI, but because it is a really hard game!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ BienLe jeu joue comme il se doit. L'interface pourrait être mieux. Avoir pour les version subséquente..Version: 1.0
✓ Good game, own physical and digital.Ignore my last review I was ignorant. Realized the bug I was having was me not noticing the line around the activated expansions. So new review. Games a little easy. The board game seems to have more strict rules on some areas meaning I haven't lost a solo game on normal yet (played 3) going to bump it up to hard next play. Would still like to see free play (99 lives) and hardcore (1 life) added. Keep up the good work guys..Version: 1.0.1
✓ More gamers but overall great gameThe games great but there is no one else really online ever..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Fantastic Game!This is a Grade A game! You start off with a certain amount of militia and resources, and you slowly build up your deck with better guys, bigger guns, and tougher armor to battle increasingly difficult enemies. The game is very tough, but very rewarding. I only hope they will add a button to let us take back a move (sometimes I used a gun without wanting to), but other than that it's fantastic!.Version: 1.0
✓ Great game but...This game is really fun but the multiplayer is basically impossible to finish because of bugs. Also the art is really satisfying..Version: 1.8.10
✓ Great start!Great iOS version of the physical game I'd just bought. For an early version of the app, it's very polished and looks great overall. Definitely works better on larger screens as my iphone 5 feels somewhat cramped when playing a game. Definitely play the tutorial as some of the controls take a bit of getting used to (2 finger scrolling especially). Most of the issues can be mitigated by adding an undo button to allow for fat-fingering the wrong card. I've gone through ~20 solo games so far and haven't had a hiccup so far with stability. Will be trying the multiplayer in the near future and will try and update then..Version: 1.0
✓ Must be fixed! Works great!I took a chance on this, seeing all of the negative reviews, but the crashing issues are fixed! I had no issues on my iPhone X or iPad Air 2. It requires patience learning how to activate abilities/card effects (play the tutorial). Of course it's more fun co-op, but solo mode is a blast. This game is alot of fun and very challenging. Good luck!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Don't update! Super buggedI just installed the new update and now it only displays a weird zoomed in look on the left side of every card. When you hover over a card to zoom and view it you can't even read it because it's zoomed in so bad. Please fix this and for those that haven't downloaded latest update, don't..Version: 1.8.2
✓ Excellent mobile adaptationGreat game, great deck building / puzzle game, great challenge and neat art. I love "deck building games" and while this may not play exactly like Dominion or Ascension, it has it own style. I've been very impressed with it so far, it's been surprisingly difficult to play a "solo game" on easy mode. The enemy deck is just so tough regardless. It was great learning how the cards resolve and learning how each "division" deck played differently. I would be highly interested in seeing what the expansions add and to be honest this makes me want to buy the all the hard copy cards and play win my friends..Version: 1.6
✓ Fun...HardGreat deck building game. I haven't beat it yet!.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Must have if you enjoy the card game!This game is a great translation of the Cool Mini or Not card game of the same name..Version: 1.0
✓ Sweet Game!Really fun, but there should be something under the options that just shows the whole deck- it's kind of hard to understand the scope of the game when there isn't a library to view the cards- that'd be huge for those of us who haven't played the game before. Thanks!.Version: 1.0
✓ Really coolFantastic as far as deck builders go. The artwork is really cool and the mechanics are solid. There's a bit of a learning curve but the tutorial is short and sweet. My only suggestion would be to make it so when you are in single player to have up to 4 lines with different bases. Essentially multiplayer but you just switch between 4 bases and play it yourself. It would greatly expand the experience. Other than that it's a lot of fun, and very challenging..Version: 1.0
✓ Tons of FunSure you lose nine out of 10 times when playing the AI, but it's addictive to try to pick the weapons/first aid/armor/action cards and lay out your troops in order to survive against the relentless aliens. Very high quality production. It appears updates have fixed most issues.Version: 1.8.6
