The Captain is Dead App Reviews

The art style and gameplay caught my eye and enjoyed playing up until the tutorial ended. It gives you just a quick once over on simple rules and then the game has it turned up a few notches making things significantly harder. I feel like this game suffers a little from not having a more in depth guide or a longer tutorial.

The game is very challenging which is fine. I have a lot of trouble with the interface. Many accidental teleports when I’m just trying to look at a room. With the margin of error so small in this game the accidental teleports usually mean I have to restart the game.

How are you supposed to play a game when the tutorial Is broken? Trying to learn in a quick game is worthless. It’s like it was dumped on the App Store and not touched since. No follow up. Stay away. Follow up. Switched from phone to iPad. Game works much better. Control is better. Today’s games are getting too advanced for the small screens. Maybe time to do a sub-rating on which platforms the games are optimized on.

Don’t expect to win every time you play!

Really, you didn’t release the game with all the characters? Ugh.

Great app version of the classic board game. Yes, I would like to see more players. I think the scholar before the teleporter chief would be preferable.

So I try to start the tutorial and every time it gets stuck at the part where the alien ship comes out and I don’t know what to do. I tried just starting a normal game, that works but my goodness I have no idea what’s going on. It looks fun and I think I’d have a great time if I knew what I was doing. I’m running it on a XR. I really want to try this and for 7 bucks I get an app where I can’t enjoy it. It looks fun would be great if I could actually play it.
