The game seems fun, and even works well on a tablet, but the Android version suffers from save terrorism: if you navigate away from the app to check a text message or something, there's a 70% probability Android will force it to shut, and you'll be at the beginning of that stage again.
Apparently this is a feature of Android they are powerless to stop. For apps that take up lots of RAM the kernal is always eager to shoot it in the head if you look away. I'm using an Xperia Z Ultra, one of those insane 6.5" 1080p phablets with 2GB RAM & 2.3GHz quad-core, but android doesn't care. It makes the game completely unfit for purpose. Who wants to play a board for 30 minutes knowing that checking your Facebook or, I don't know, GETTING A PHONECALL will delete it all? |

The Android version is the Anti-Jonsey by Lettuphant 12/11/2013, 4:26am PST 
The devs could make it save on exit if they wanted to, same as they could for PC NT by Last 12/11/2013, 11:47am PST 
Never played tabletop so for me was just a linear rpg, got bored with it by end NT by Roop 12/11/2013, 6:04am PST 
missing all the positives of the snes version, so it's basically just xcom NT by the truth 12/11/2013, 9:58am PST 
That could still be kewl. Any thoughts on the combat system itself? by Mischief Maker 12/11/2013, 5:39pm PST 
The SNES version had positives? It was okay, but genesis version was better NT by WITTGENSTEIN 12/11/2013, 5:48pm PST 
It sure did have positives by The Thriller 12/14/2013, 5:28pm PST 
The writing/atmosphere is the best part. The gameplay serves its purpose. by WITTGENSTEIN 12/14/2013, 5:09pm PST
