Dresden Files Co-op Card Game App Reviews

This appears to be a great translation of the very excellent board/card game. I've only payed solitaire with one win and a couple close loses but it seems to work quite well and for some reason seems more evocative of the books than playing the board game. I very much wish there was an asynchronous network version. While I understand that direct communication is useful in cooperative games, time availability makes the async option very attractive.

This is a fantastic co-op card game that feels fun and true to the wonderful book series. This is a tough game so don’t plan to win all of the time of even most of the time. This game requires planning, thought, and a bit of luck to win. This is also a complex enough game that the play works better when you are playing with others instead of using the solitaire mode and trying to remember everything yourself. RECOMMENDATION: Would be nice to have a single buy option to get all expansions, inste

...REALLY needs to WARN YOU if you are at risk of overspending the Fate pool and triggering a showdown. Had a sweet, eminently winnable first game die on me this way in the second turn and I had a very large sad.

I’m a big fan of the series of books that inspired the game, and this app is a perfect way to play the card game without busting out my physical copy. Is the game challenging? Absolutely. But the strategy makes it very replayable. Just won my first game! A great way to pass the time.

If you are a fan of the Dresden Files books by Jim Butcher or Fate dice games, this is for you! It supports pass and play either locally or online. Lots of fun and the difficulty can be raised to make it very challenging. My only request is that the developers make the music tracks loop so I can enjoy the extra ambience for the entire game. Highly recommended! To anyone thinking the game is ‘too tough’, it’s supposed to be tough. I have the board game version and my friends an I can win on ‘no

If you just have to win then move on. This game requires thought, prep, strategy, & a willingness to learn from your mistakes. It is hard to win even on easy. Honestly, Im doubting Ill ever even try the harder settings. If you’re tired of games getting dumbed down cause the admins are caving to the whiners then here ya go. If you have a completely unreasonable obsession with Dresden Files then here ya go. If you’re in the between books slump & need a fix... :) I like it. I think its fun.

The app is gorgeous, the gameplay is fun, the guy who played 40+ games without a victory probably does not understand know how to play (or perhaps he is cursed). Yes, it is hard, the strategy guide is a must read. But after a read through, one game where I was still figuring out that you need to bring fate to the showdown, I won the second game handily. If you like coop play, careful planning, and can stand being stung a bit by the RNG gods, this is package delivers with a wizardy bang. No love

I won on my second game (on easy, mind you, I would have had 0 chance on “normal”), but that person saying they played 40 times and couldn’t win needs to stick to Minecraft, as they had me terrified to purchase this “impossible” game. Hopefully it has enough replay ability though, because the only variability in that first scenario we’re just the positions of the assets.

latest update makes most things very hard to see unless your screen is huge. If I was new to this, I would not be able to tell what is what. And now there are more screens and steps for the same thing. Changes for change sake. I won’t be playing this nearly as often anymore.

I know nothing of the books the game is based on but can still proclaim this a really original card game! I love how, unlike most card games, it really feels like some open book test as all of the environmental cards are already there before you as well as the majority of your characters' cards from the start. With the cards in front of you, can you plot the best course of action to best clear the board?

Played about 16 times with Murphy and Michael, lost each time. Played with Murphy and Susan and win just about every time. Beat the first 4 or 5 books.

Like a few others I’ve found it frustrating that I haven’t won a single solitaire game after HOURS of playing. Perhaps it’s not really meant to be played alone? I continue to come close with several ties, but expected to win at least one game on “easy” mode. I will give two stars instead of one because for some unknown reason I keep wanting to play it. Maybe I’m just as stubborn as Harry 😉 Also, the tutorial is terrible. I played through an actual solitaire game, then looked at the tutorial for

It's just not fun. The entire game centers around fate points and strategy for anything else comes second to that. I mean that's fine I guess but the worst part is you shouldnt lose fate points when passing. The dice rolls are also a headache because not all games are winnable. There should really be more game play customization options like jot losing fate when passing and such. This is my favorite book series and it deserves a better or just a different game.
