The game is fun. However the save feature is almost useless in the middle of a game, as there is no way to view where enemies and characters were or note character status for later. Even just a "notes" section would be great. a BIG issue with the app:there is no go back or cancel if you hit the wrong button. You NEED to be able to undo a button push. You also cannot review an initial placement of some elements. If you miss it, you can never check. Still fun, but the app needs some improvement. Edited

I see no dev responses to bug reports in the reviews, so I doubt they read these, but they should. The game, itself, is really fun with a few house rules. Game balance for 4-5 players is insanely difficult, 2-3 is great. An "Undo" button is a critically missing feature. You really don't get your money's worth out of an $80 campaign with so few variety of monsters & heroes (but they're limited to Tolkien cannon), and replayability is meh with only one campaign. Need more voiceovers for immersion!

The Board Game is Awesome!! But the App could definitely use some work... Specifically with the Ememy placement, I accidentally double clicked and completely missed where they were supposed to be placed... The app tracks health/status to a T but doesn't have any sort of location tracking?? That seems like a huge Flaw... not even a note in the game log, why even have a log if you dont notate everything? It literally just says enemy spawned... Anyways, the App works flawlessly other than that...

This app was unavailable to use on Android for over 2 weeks. This is unacceptable considering you need the app to play the game. I understand issues arise, but if something like an app is necessary to play a game you paid for, then fantasy flight games needs to allocate more resources to ensure this never happens again. On top of that there was ZERO communication from the publisher on social media. The only thing we got was a reply on a single forum about the issue. Do better, FFG.

We found the issue and submitted an update on the Google Play Store. You should be able to open the app again after updating the app to the latest version.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Best regards

I had an glitch on my device with one aspect of one of the newer missions. I filled out a form on the fantasy flight website. Within 24 hours, not only did the developers respond but had programmed a new patch for the software! The game itself is fantastic; it's basically LoTR in a box. It provides great tactical adventures without being too fiddly (slowing down the game), and the components look fantastic. Before giving a bad review I would encourage anyone to contact FFG first.
