    +1 to the not finding any secrets (well I found 1 but I think that is just because the Barbarian was standing on it when you start the level with him) and also 3.2 is doing my head in, Paytor and Aegon are fine but Roy just gets his ass whooped pretty much instantly.

    Anyone know how the dev is going to combat all of these remarks about the gameplay being so "slow"?

    Point out that it's a TBS at heart which is... slow? Unfortunately, I don't know how they divvy up reviews on this site, but when the pace, misses, glancing blows, etc. were cited as problems, to me that says the reviewer has no idea what they are doing reviewing the particular game and probably never spent 10-12 hours in a single sitting around a table with lots of caffeinated drinks and food you eat with your hands rolling dice and doodling on graph paper, which is where this game draws its inspiration and audience.

    I am actually really liking this game a lot, I am only on 3-1, but what I have played so far is pretty fun, and this might be one of the very very few iOs games I actually finish.


    Another thing I think the camera/movement controls are awesome, and have not had one problem with the interface at all. Swipe with two fingers to rotate, swipe with 1 to pan, tap to select and tap again to move or cast; how much easier could they have made it? Don't understand the comments about controls at all.

    That being said, I do agree with the review, it's a fun game, but it isn't perfect. I like the slow pace of combat animations, but can see how some won't. And it could use more loot.

    Speed adjustment on animations (user option) would be a definite plus.

    I'd like a proper FF button, not the one that is in the game now.

    Something like 4x speed, especially for situations like at the end of 1-3 where you have to watch heaps of peons get summoned and then proceed to run miles to where you are.

    I love TBS games like this. Visuals look great. Just my cup of tea!

    I'm having a lot of trouble with 3-2. Any tips from people who have cleared this?

    Ok nevermind about 3-2. Just passed it after 4 tries. The key is to using potions for the others and making Roy trap at least one archer and melee at the barriers so they cannot hit him while he slowly kill the others or at least survive until Aegon can rescue him.

    So, how do you find the secrets? Are you supposed to touch everything everywhere until something pops up or what? I'm on 2-2 and haven't found anything at all.

    Only played the first level so far, but I found a lever that opened a secret area with a chest containing a sword.

    Secrets are levers on the wall. Stand beside them to activate an opening somewhere in the level.

    I restarted my game, and I'm now going through each Chapter methodically looking for the secret levers (located on the walls) as well as the achievement trophies. Not every Chapter has a lever, but a lot of them do and offer potions, weapons, gold, and armor if you find them. Note that the levers all seem to open a secret room (with a treasure chest) usually near the lever. Although, you may need to backtrack if you don't see the room after you activate the lever.

    As for the trophies, they are very small characters of either monsters or your characters hidden throughout the dungeons. When you find one, just touch it to collect it. You may need to zoom in and out and rotate the camera to find them. I think I've found about seven trophies as of Chapter 2-3. One achievement listed is Dungeon Crawler, which says Find All 25 Trophies. Good luck with that :)

    I have bug at the same spot 4-1. Two banshees, two gargoyles and a mummy. Keeps getting stuck at the banshee no matter what I do. The game just comes to a standstill and I cannot do anything. Only happens when I use war stomp skill and the banshee gets stunned.
