I still have my original Dark Tower game from the 80s. I also have the game on my iPad. I have an android phone and was excited to find this game. I know it's not the Dark Tower game I was use to playing, and was a little excited to see what this new version was like. Well, I must say I'm highly disappointed. Instructions are hard to follow. It's very confusing. And the COST of the things you need to buy just to play the game? You ruined a fun game. I'll stick with the original board game.

** Fix implemented and game ran wth no issues. Updating review to reflect that it's a solid app for the game ** Received my pre-order game today. The app crashes on my Pixel 7 Pro, Android 14 immediately. Reboot phone, no help. Will reevaluate my review once this is resolved. *** Added two stars because it does work on an old phone. But I can't keep that old phone going forever. *** an update email states they are working on a fix.
