Spectromancer HD 9+

I never write reviews and this will be my first ever. But I absolutely love this game. I wish more people would check it out and wish they still had the iPhone version.

To fix the issue with it hanging on the home screen. Make sure auto rotation lock is turned off on your iPad. Make sure to flip the iPad 180 degrees and the screen will turn rotation, then do it again the other way and then it works. The keyboard is wonky but once you log in once you’ll never have to deal with it again.

I’ve been looking for games like this for so long. I hate building decks and just want a fun card playing game with pre built decks and this is exactly it. I hope someday they come out with Spectromancer 2. This is the only game I ever play on iPad and it’s worth every cent.

I’ve played Spectro since the beginning, way back in my PC days with this game. I still love this game. I am so thankful for the developers putting up a patch here at IOS 16. Thank you! If you ever decide to add more expansions, I’m in. Honestly everybody, where Magic the Gathering is a great game, albeit rather bloated, from the fun days up until Urza’s Saga/Mercadia’s masks, this game remains fun in a similar but different way WITHOUT being a money hog. This satisfies my fantasy ‘card-like’ game desires in so many ways.

I would still love to see a few more archtypes someday!

This used to be one of my favorite games for the iPad. I mean, it was developed by Richard Garfield (of Magic: The Gathering fame) and was just so much fun to play. After years of not playing, I reinstalled it and was having a blast. But then it got very buggy. Main menu screen buttons wouldn’t work (switching to Home Screen and then back or rotating 180 degrees fixes this) and it crashed rather frequently. Now, in the middle of a League of Heroes tournament, I can’t go one turn without the game crashing. Force quitting, restarting iPad, and reinstalling the game doesn’t work. This is a 5 star game with so many catastrophic bugs that I can’t give it more than 2 stars. Looks like 1 star if I can’t get it to play for more than 5 seconds. Such a shame.
