Great game!
Thu Sep 22 2022 WRS15743First of all, thank you, developer, for making this in portrait mode! I used to have a similar game but it was landscape, and I just don’t like playing landscape, so I deleted it. Portrait is easier to hold. So thank you!
Also thank you for a fair premium price with no ads. The file size is also small and the app is good on battery. The game also looks nice. You did everything right here.
For those saying they had a hard time figuring out the mechanics, I found a really good video online of a reviewer doing a play-through with the app. If you watch that, and then play a game or two, you’ll know what to do. I lost my first game, barely, and then won my next game, barely. That means the app is balanced. Very good job developer!
The only thing I think that could be clearer is the fact that you have to discard the rest of your cards before you deploy, and at first I wasn’t sure what to do because it wasn’t clear to me how to discard them and that I had to drag them all to discard one by one. But I figured it out.
Very well done. I highly recommend this enjoyable strategy game that is challenging without being too hard or frustrating. Thank you!
Please include a reference tab for buildings
Mon Nov 15 2021 Mark EhlThis is the biggest missing feature for me. I need to know which buildings to target without memorizing it.
Bare bones app, needs much more polish
Mon Nov 09 2020 PikkusiiliThis app probably works fine for people who already know how to play the game. As someone who has never played Paper Tales but has played hundreds of board games in physical and digital implementations, this app needs a lot of work. The tutorial is a slide show that doesn’t explain how to do things or the user interface. The player information bar floats over your draft picks so you can’t see what you’ve already taken. There is no in app feedback on why something isn’t working.
I think I’m going to ask for a refund on this. It looks pretty and I think if you know the game it might work for you. It doesn’t work for me.
Money down the drain
Sat Nov 07 2020 smokindaveTutorial is a joke. No rulebok. Not intuitive. Makes no sense. Trying to learn by playing, but nothing is explained, it’s a huge waste. And it’s not like I haven’t played 1000 different strategy board and card games before or 100s of board game apps. In the deployment phase in Age 2, I deployed cards that I can afford and the green checkmark doesn’t enable. I tried different combinations of cards, nothing. No direction from the app as to what I’m doing wrong, it just sits in this state expecting me to do something, assuming I know and understand the rules, but the app never taught me the game. Not sure if the app has bugs or I don’t understand the rules. I suppose I could seek out the rules online, but I shouldn’t have to. Horrible. Zero stars.
Good game, but needs a ton of work
Fri Dec 11 2020 ski6913I really enjoy Paper Tales as a game, but the app is extremely underdeveloped. Tutorial is completely barebones and isn’t sufficient for a new player to learn the game, you can’t see the available buildings until the building phase, etc. Needed way more testing and development before they started accepting money from people.
