Kinna looks like Warlock of Firetop mountain, but with more engaging graphics (eg actual model animations). Neat.
I think it looks pretty cool also. May have to check it out.

Looks like a huge graphics overhaul from the first game. Great atmosphere. Count me in.
Reviews aren't that great; from what I read the game is simple; short and dull but perhaps I read the wrong reviews ?

The first one? Simple I’m sure. It was on mobile. I didn’t play it just recall seeing it.

Well it stands at 81% now which is pretty good. I did read the one early access review (54 hours played) that had some thoughtful criticisms. I’d say calling it a small, simple crawler vs a sprawling epic with lots of mechanical depth is fair. Some of those other negative reviews showed .4-3 hours played which I filter out. At $7.99 it’s something I’d grab for the commute. I spend about 2.5 hour a day on a train so I’m waiting for the IOS release.

It looks pretty interesting to me, once I get some of my back log dealt with, I may have to take a shot at this.

It looks rather simple and boring to me... I'm surprised at the interest in it. Now if someone would bring Mage Knight to life as a digital board game, I'd be interested.

Well there is always Mage Knight Apocolypse for you to dig into. Great game thank me later ha ha

Can't blame you there. I don't have experience with this game but I decided to look into the free "Arcane Quest" which uses the same system and it was a pretty frustrating experience. The dice system isn't documented anywhere and yet they show the rolls on screen. When I reached out to the community and the developer all I got was idiotic responses on what the dice even mean. If no one can articulate the game system what is the point of playing it. More importantly why would a developer spend so much time implementing a system and then not bother to communicate it. Unless you are one of the few that have played Hero Quest and recall the dice system it is sort of pointless to play this as it doesn't reach out to new players at all.
