It’s a combative game and players take the side of either traitor or loyalist, these Warlords form vast companies of Space Marines, battalions of tanks and battlefleets of Spacecraft.

8 of 15I love the game, except when I crashes half way through, every time I play it. Fix it or give my money back, because it wasn’t worth this amount of frustration.
I would love to give this a 5 star review but the game is frustrating with all the crashing that occurs. If your a fan of the talisman game mechanics this game is perfect. These guys did a great job incorporating the horus heresy story line.the graphics are great...the sound track is inspiring...near infinite replay value with all of the Horus heresy characters incorporated. It would be easy to spend hours playing this adventure game. Unfortunately you can throw that all away because of the lack of support from the designers. The game is riddled in bugs that cause it to crash. There is nothing as frustrating as spending an hour or two playing; building up your warlord...only to have the NPC warlords crash the game. With most of the crashes...you can reload the game and continue on. But every once in a while it will crash to the point that your forced to start a new game from scratch. So until the designers patch this game and improve the consistency in play...save your money and yourself from the frustration.
I really like the changes from the traditional Talisman game. Definitely had a 40k feel.
It's a great game, if you own relic the you'll love it. However since the last game update you can't finish a game which means you can't lvl the characters. If they fix that then it's worth the money to get the expansions
I love this game,but please update for iphone x resolution,i know this imposible,maybe,but still i will hoping that day will come)
I really wish I could love this game, but on my very first play through, at the very end of the game, two AI warlords had a tied battle (standoff), and the game crashed. It consistently crashes there since the game uses preset rolls, so the file becomes unplayable. Started a new game- same issue occurred just a few turns in. The sad part is, this does not appear to be a new bug. If this error gets fixed, I’d definitely rate this game much higher, but don’t be like me and buy a game before realizing it doesn’t just crash randomly, but consistently. Not sure how it can still be up on the store in its current state, but REALLY hoping the developers take another look at what could have been a great variation on a board game classic.
This game crashes every few minutes. Waste of money. Do not buy I repeat until crashes get fixed game is not playable save your money
Where to begin... The interface is atrocious, lacking all semblance of a board game (except a grid). Rather than cards w/ images and text, you get crude little thumbnail pics that must be clicked on for a lengthy description to pop up, and then scrolled all the way to the bottom for how the "dataslate" plays. Characters on the grid are identified by identical little pin drops--and no, you cant simply click on them to see who it is. So, get ready to make your encounter choices blindly! I mean... Wow... Just wow. 1/10 is too generous. 0/10.
