    i'm trying to start a game with my friend and he keeps on inviting me to his party but i don't get any sort of notification of them. we've added each other on game center and stuff so i guess it should work or am i missing something? also am i right in believing there is no way to quit running games?

    Yeah, I was hoping there would be either random pairing through Gamecenter or some solo quests. However, since there isn't a way to play with AI team members or random people like most Words With Friends type games, I really wouldn't play it. I only have one Gamecenter friend. Hopefully all of this will be changed with an update someday. But I won't be picking it up until then.

    I'm really enjoying this so far. I love the take your turn and go away play something else etc Async gameplay.
    But I can see how a single player mode should be added, it doesn't have to be single player with AI, it can just be the ability to start a game and play solo. Should be easy enough to do.

    I'm really impressed with how this has launched as I remember in the upcoming forum they were talking about skipping graphics animations etc trying to cut things that weren't to important to get it released and it looks like nothing is missing.
    Really impressed and looking forward to seeing what it has to offer (I've only done the tutorial and started the first real mission) and how its going to grow.

    I'm impressed too. Impressed that I can't know who is playing, which class they are, that I actually can't delete a game, no matter what, etc.
    The idea is great, but the online aspect is really broken at this moment, and since it's online only, I hope at least the basics are addressed soon enough

    Seems like if people would start slow (one game with one other person) instead of Warp 9 (20 games with 60 other people) they might have a better experience.

    Haha I agree. It's the same with outwitters/hero academy or even ascension I've only ever got a few games at once not the maximum.
    Instead people go argh I can't wait for me turn I'll add another game and another and another.

    Does this game has some kind of auto-termination after some days? Really, nobody thought that one can get a full list and not ever be able to clear it? I have like 5 games going (waiting actually) because I'm afraid of that.

    I started a bunch of games, went to work, came back, aaaaand.... No progress. But hey, I've really got this whole "click-to-move" bit down!

    What's the plan for when one player doesn't take a turn? Or decides to drop out altogether? Does that mean the other three players are left hanging indefinitely? Sigh.

    And what happens to your character after a game ends? Is there some persistence? I'm one of those RPGers that get really attached to their one creation, so I was a bit sad to find that I had to create a new character for every game.

    It's a shame that the game is garnering so much ill-will because the dev seems like one of those that really give a damn about their product.

    I still want to see some of the actual game before the night is over, so feel free to add me on GC (alyfantis) if you want some 2-player action.

    I'll chime in with the no joy thing as well. Got 4 games in waiting status with people I think are playing (at least invited me or I invited them recently) but no way to check, just got as far as a wolf and that's it. Really want to play! :(

    On a separate point can someone please tell me how to get a signature so I can stick on currrently playing, gamecentre ID, most wanted etc?

    Cheers.

    Got a couple I games started but fell asleep, looks like it will be a fun little multiplayer dungeon crawler. It would be nice to cancel out of a game, I have a slot or two taken without Ayer actions and also the ability to redo the movement. I am still making movement errors!

    Look up cubanbass to play

    I'm sorry for all the people trying to play with someone who do not take his turns.
    It's EXACTELY why there isn't a play with random people thing IMHO.
    This is not a random people game.
    AT ALL.

    My experience after 2 more hours, finally doing some proper quests and tactical cohordination.
    I'm having an ABSOLUTE BLAST with this game, and then some.
    To the point I've sneaked in at work my iPhone just to play this thing.

    My personal TO DO list for an update:

    1) Allow me to delete games and decline invites. I stupidily tried to start some games with friends, trying different classes...now it's a nightmare (I name my character always the same).
    This imho it's first priority.
    2) I would like to see whose turn is (to piss him off by phone). Now to see it I must go in GC panel and see who played it among my friends.
    3) For some reasons, I now get notifications only on iPad, not on iPhone.
    BTW...I played a lot on the new iPad...it's surprisngly retro-pixel good.
    4) It would be cool if pressing the notification brought me directly to the game waiting for my turn, not the main screen.
    5) If both online, I would like a faster way of chatting.
    6) I'm only at the beginning but I already want more quests, quests, and again more quests.

    Now excuse me, I must return to my beloved paladin and equip that cool magical armour I joust found :)

    Thanks for making it!!!

    Oh :p

    I am, much more than I though honestly.
    I'm playing with a close number of friends, we are having a blast.
    I'm even playing two instances (different groups, same character of mine) and despite yes...the first game spoil a bit the second, I'm enjoying it very much (fights are random, as is it loot...and there is TON of loot).
    From here it can only improve...I already imagine additional quests and campaigns...maybe even an editor....

    Pure nerd D&D joy :p
