Elder Sign: Omens less than a buck (iOS and Android)

Post by hentzau »

Apparently this week only, for Halloween. I thought the game was great when I paid $7, but for a buck it's a steal.

I concur.

It's certainly one of the best digital boardgame conversions I've ever played, and a wonderfully atmospheric Lovercraftian game. Any OOer that doesn't yet own it definitely ought to jump on this deal.

I picked it up. I have 2900+ coins. So using 99 was a pretty easy choice.

Yeah it's a lot of fun, although I almost threw my phone against the wall a few times when I got terrible rolls to end a long(ish) game.

Had a $50 in credit on the play store, so I picked this up last week.

Great implementation of Elder Sign. I was kind of wary after picking up the horrible iteration of Catan last year. A steal at $0.99.
