Fantastic game!!!

I honestly dont understand how this game is "too hard". Its described as a rogue-like game and it captures that perfectly. I will be honest, playing as the wizard is certainly more difficult than if you start with the warrior or dwarf, simply because they can take more of a beating with the higher armor and the better dice for physical attacks, which certainly help. However, there is a place for the spell caster too!

The gameplay is smooth and the character development is spot on. This is by no means an easy game but thats part of the charm. Ive played two full games so far, one with the warrior and one with the wizard. In neither game did I even make it to the first boss but it was great trying! It kept me coming back for more and craving to see what the next dice roll had in store. Now, with that being said, Im currently in my third game. This time Im playing as the dwarf and let me tell you he kicks some major butt if things go right. I got some great armor and a nasty battle axe. Just defeated the first boss AND his Ogre minion. What!?!

Remember I said, "If things go right"? Its true. I had 2 previous attempts with the dwarf and got crushed early on. Some inadequate dice rolls and the poor decision to take on an armored Orc far too soon meant an early demise for me. You have to tread carefully and hope for the best at times, and although you have to hope for some good dice rolls, I seriously never felt cheated like I had in other games (Blood Bowl Im talking to you!!!)

As far as a pay wall goes... I have no idea why someone would say that. You get the three aforementioned heroes from the start for free and there is nothing to buy, ever. You have all features unlocked from the start. The only thing you can buy is a pass for all of the other heroes, which is less than $3. Small price to pay for 11 heroes along with any and all expansions that might be coming out. Even if they dont release additional content, that is certainly the best three bucks I ever spent in the App Store.

If you enjoy fantasy themed board games that are done right, do yourself the favor and at least give it a shot. The first 3 heroes ARE free, after all. I dont think youll be disappointed. I know Im not. Enjoy!
