What players say

I like the fact that it reminds me of the actual tabletop rules rather than being based on the story but with an alien system. For those of us that have less and less time for actual tabletop play this is a huge plus

Having already played the original board game, i came to pathfinder adventure with fairly high expectations, and i wasn't disappointed. The digital version faithfully recreates the tabletop experience and does an excellent job of bringing the pathfinder universe to life. The deck-building mechanics are outstanding, and the game remains genuinely enjoyable throughout the campaign. Horewer, i would only recommend...

I only recommend this game if you get it on sale (yes, $10 is too high) and are willing to put up with a buggy, obtuse mess of a game in order to get your PACG high. Design on this game is....fine. Wish there were options for speeding up animations. Dialogue interludes are OK. Cards and abilities not working or skipping, especially as you get later on in the game, is extremely frustrating. I will keep playing it...
