11 Positive User Reviews for The Ensign
Best game
Like I been playing for almost a year now, only finished the game today.
Best experience
I’m 20 years old. I finished A Dark Room at 12 or 13. I know that any game by this creator will absolutely blow me away. I connected so deeply with the characters. I come back to this experience every once in a while. No other “game” compares. It’s so beautifully written. This app keeps your sanity. It’s not all about killing like a lot of these video games lately. I couldn’t recommend this app more.
Creative and Engaging
This game, much like ADR, is a unique experience and a fun creative twist on a single player version of a multi-user dungeon (MUD). Bravo to the developers for creating a fun, engaging, and creative yet simplistic mobile game.
Elegant simplicity, yet not simple
Appearance conceals complexity of player options. The author continues to maintain and then add to the story. Long term Players are rewarded. Perhaps an additional element is soon forthcoming.
played while watching The Walking Dead
fun. die a lot in the beginning while you learn.
I let this sit for a few years
The Ensign was too hard for me and I had given up. I distinctly remember NOT liking this game. But after revisiting A Dark Room and loving it even more now than when I first played years back, I gave it another shot. Wow. This game is incredible. Honestly, the developer is on another level. I don’t think I was mature enough to appreciate this game before. I’m glad that I could experience it differently now, and am curious if it will hit even more differently when I’m even older and revisit.
Lots to explore, play slow
The game really rewards patience and keeping track of everything step by step. I was able to beat after about 300 minutes of gameplay and that involved losing many times to learn. Very good game, I enjoyed it.
Great follow up
Play a dark room first, but spend the money here. Sign of outstanding game play and storytelling that ascii characters are aLl you need. Up there with nethack (look it up)
Just the right amount of frustration
I love this game and I don’t even like games
Fantastic game
Not as good as a dark room, which I’d give 6 stars if I could. Game is challenging and interesting
Favorite Mobile Game
I’ve beaten this game numerous times and just recently I’ve found it had an updated ending that shocked me! Love this game!
