Escape the Dark Castle App Reviews

The board game is great, and I bought this mostly because it had the death book. But am I really to expect all of my friends to buy it too? What if we have someone new? Do I require them to buy it as well? This app is great for single player, but there really needs to be free version that allows friends to only join games. Hosting can still be behind a paywall.

A lot of app add little except a distraction to a game, ending up as little more than cumbersome single use calculators. Not the case here. Clearly carefully designed to fit the mood of the game and to work with rather than against you this app adds a great deal to the standard play experience. A pleasure to have purchased.

Kinda lame you have to have your friends all buy the app too instead of one person buying the game and hosting it. Like jackbox or something. Otherwise it’s cool!

I love Escape the Dark Castle and the idea of an app to keep track of HP and have a virtual death book is great. Unfortunately, even though you have to pay $1.99 there are so many bugs and issues that makes the experience frustrating. Themeborne really needs to overhaul this app or at least make it free. I also don’t like how every person in the party needs to pay for the app in order to use it. If there’s a paywall, it should only be there if you want to host a game or play solo, but not every

The app does not seem to be worth the 2 dollars. Not very intuitive design and buggy overall
