Fallen London App Reviews

140 add

Its like a good book

Cant put it down, the story and possible ways to interact with it are hilarious. App problems: - on entering any page you get scrolled to the top, which is a pain if you already started scrolling down yourself - when playing the face change card you get no chance to use it in the app - when I convert items in my inventory Im not being send to the inventory afterwards but to the stories tab, which is a minor inconvenience

Wonderful

Cant wait to play more!

The Best!

Ive been a fan of Fallen London for years... Im thrilled that it is finally playable on mobile!

Sync Sucks

Buggy energy refill. Buggy sync. Its buggy.

Broken

Action does not refill. Stuck at 0 for hours. There are better, less buggy games out there

Love Fallen London, Despise the App

I was pretty excited to have an app for this game, mostly because it could be played offline, and I had hope the design to be beautiful and functional like the online version. Imagine my dismay when I download it only to find a terribly buggy, bloated and basically unplayable game. It already takes up almost double the advertised space after a few hours of play(350MB), the graphics are huge and require extensive scrolling, and after every exit it needs to be connected to the Internet to "sync", which takes minutes that seem like hours. I am back to playing it in safari, where its actually more playable on my phone. Would have gotten one star if the online version wasnt so great.

Bug fix

Been playing for years. Like the new app. One big needs to be addressed. Is there a way to force a sync so that actions and cards can be refreshed? If app closes but runs in background, actions and cards dont refill over time. Must force-kill to re-sync. Please address soon. Many thanks, delicious app developers.

????

Server has been offline since I downloaded it so I havent even got to try the game.

Seems like a great game, super buggy app

I keep force closing it because it wont load that Ive gained energy and then the app becomes unusable and I have to delete it and download it again

Best game in awhile

This is one of if not the best games Ive played so far, but be warn there are some glitches, but the game content so so over welming its amazing!

Needs a little fixing

Only a few mins in the game and it shows promise. I hope future updates add more music, and the ability to check other people profiles without crashing my game.

Good for what I played

From what I have gone up to it has been great however the game bugged out and now I cant get into it. It just shows a grey screen. Do recommend though.

Doesnt disappoint

Ive been a dedicated fan of the browser game for years, and eagerly looking forward to this app since it was announced. I cant overstate how fantastic the story and world are, and the new graphics and music add a fun extra dimension. The app itself is still a little rough around the edges (Im particularly feeling the absence of a try again button) but Failbetter is clearly working hard and fast on bug fixes and improvements.

Crashes

Played once when first downloaded. Very slow loading. Now it wont even load. Crashes.

I hear its very good...

... But I myself was never able to make it past the name creation. Its a trial-and-error process to find a name to call yourself that has not been taken already. I gave up after three attempts and deleted the game. Its unfortunate they have made this design choice, it makes it irritating from the get-go and since you have no idea if the game is good, its not very hard to say "whatever" and move on. Which I did.

Great game...

...but its quite buggy. I enjoy this game quite a bit, but I have trouble getting through the loading screen without it crashing. Its a brilliant game, but only when you can get on. Im using an Ipad mini, but I dont think the problem is with my device alone.

Play online instead

Update: having a sync button sounds great but when I open the game it takes forever to load and then says that my character is out of date and it needs to revert. No thanks! Dont want to lose all that play since I last opened it. Back to the website for me. The game is great but the app is annoying and buggy. I played this morning, 4hrs later my candle is still at 0. Lots of scrolling past greyed-out options, store/inventory is ugly and not intuitive. Some actions you want to repeat, but it sends you way back to the top of the decision tree every time and you have to scroll and tap through a ton of options again. And this is with a new character without a lot to do yet! Stick to the website.

Somewhat Frustrated

Very good adaptation of the online web version. Keeps on having syncing issues and saying that I have 0 turns left.....

Not saving properly

Still doesnt sync correctly after the updates. Fun to play *if* it saves, which it often doesnt.

Having issues

Was a lot of fun to play - but the last update just has me watching an infinite updating content message. Please fix - as it is a great game. I like the storyline and music
