[NexDragon]

Hi there

I just bought the game on steam, and heard it will realease on IOS too... i would have waited to play it on my iphone on the go....

any chance that ppl who bought it on steam get free acess to the App?
or do i need to rebuy the game?

thanks in advance

The game is coming out on iPad and Android tablets tomorrow. We have no immediate plans for a phone version but it could happen in the future.

A purchase of One Deck Dungeon is good on the store where you made your purchase and does not transfer to other stores. It would be best to decide where you want to play the game and plan your purchase accordingly. For instance, a purchase on Steam allows you to play on Windows, Mac, and SteamOS/Linux computers signed in with your Steam account. A purchase for iOS allows you to play on any iPad linked to your Apple account.

Is the version for the iPad in any way "dumbed down" from the Steam version, or just a straight port?
This looks like a game that I need to play on my big iPad Pro rather than my clunky old pc.

[MigrantP]

It's a straight port. There are some differences like Game Center achievements instead of Steam, etc. And the iOS/Android versions do not have global stats since those are a Steam specific feature.

Will DLC be a part of the IOS version also?

[MigrantP]

Yep, they will be available as in app purchases for the same prices.

Excellent I rarely buy games for multiple platforms but this is a must have for IOS..Thanks

Great to hear the game is a straight port and that the dlc will be available as well.
I'm checking into the App Store every hour now.

I keep checking the Apple store and nothing yet. 😢 I just discovered there’s an iOS version of Steam. If I buy the game through Steam would I be able to play it on my Windows laptop and iPad via Steam? Would I need internet access to play it on Steam?

The Steam mobile apps just let you interact with your Steam account; you can't play PC games on mobile using them.

You sure it is coming out "tomorrow" which would have been yesterday or is it coming out tomorrow...as in.... "tomorrow never comes"?

It's 2am here (24th) and it still is nowhere to be found on the App Store.
I need to go to bed, but I know I wont sleep. o_O
Sorry, I'm just so damn anxious to get this on my iPad.

It is out on Google Play; unfortunately Apple sucks.

Apple usually does new releases on Thursdays so may have to wait until tomorrow..

...... unfortunately Apple sucks.

Oh that is a total understatement ;)

Thursday?!? I’ve been checking the store all day and now I have to wait until Thursday. 😭

That sounds a bit... insincere. Some developers allow buying thier game on one platform and playing it on all platforms (Star Realms fame comes to mind) including all DLCs. Most developers do not. The point is that you do not "decide where you want to play the game", you want to play it on all platforms available to you - there is nothing to decide.

It's is a legitimate business model to try and charge your customers twice for the same thing if they allow you: want to play on both iPad and Android - well pay us twice. But it would be more honest, to tell just that, instead of advice to chose as if it's some kind of technical problem impossible to overcome.

We applaud Star Realms guys for their descision and are loving it, but the reality, is most developers rather charge you more than less. For the game and all the DLCs. They can afford it.
