Great work but where is the game? Finished 6 easy levels in an hour, and that's it? Seriously?

Well I hate to seem like a sucker but really, the concept is great! The developers are helpful! The game is full of the cheesy character artwork (Which I love!). This is just my opinion and I didn't expect the game to be great one at all from the beginning. But it turned out to be a real gem... Great can't even use my typical "The game is truly astonishing" that I usually use because it will just seem as if I used the thing as a PUN! DAMNIT! 5 stars for it! (Ooh one note! The game is best played with Music off!)

Played through a few of the levels and its pretty fun. Would be great if there was a difficulty setting like easy, normal, hard for all missions with some sort of unlock rewards. Its nice to hear the music from the album to go with a written narrative.

A fun, turn-based strategy game. I really enjoy the instrumental arrangements of the songs from the album.

A very good game marred by graphics glitches which sometimes are annoying and other times unplayable. Great gameplay and obviously an awesome soundtrack. When they get it fixed it will be well worth the wait. EDIT. The latest patch seems to have fixed the game.

I cannot see the game board. It just appears as white. I can see the character pieces and the blue and red numbers on the boards, but cannot tell what color the game board tiles are. Fix this and I will change my rating.

Nice immersion in the dystopian universe of the astonishing. Could be better with more levels and possibility of online challenging. Overall good for local games mostly

I don't know what to think. I think I'm supposed to like this game because i like Dream Theater and I like The Astonishing, but i just can't get into the game. I guess it's too advanced for me. Some might like it better than i do.
