My Father's Work Hack 1.6 + Redeem Codes

Awesome worker placement game with a frightfully spooky theme, but it is very reliant on the app. As many have said, there’s a lot of reading. Normally I wouldn’t mind, but it tends to ruin the pace of gameplay. More narration would be cool. The feminine narration is also very bad.

We’ve played the first scenario twice with no issues progressing. However, in the second scenario, Fear of the Unknown, the game had a bug that caused the early years of generation three to repeat, but with different story beats. I’m not sure how impactful it was on the game as we just ignored the second early years section to pop up, but it was cause for a lot of confusion while we figured out what happened.

Awesome game. Mediocre app with story ruining bug and poor narration. I love the story, but I would rather have less reading to the table if it meant I could keep playing the game.

iOS is up to date and considered comparable per the application. Will not open, just black-screens and crashes. Hoping for a future update to fix this, as it is too small on an iPhone to be the desired way to use it.

Game is a blast, with tons of theme, and the app works fine as long as you have an up to date iPad. I mean to be forced to be running iOS 12 (which is what the complaints all seem to be about) means you are on an iPad released nearly 10 years ago. The app works fine, the game plays great, you just need something newer than a device from 2013 to run it.

The button that looks like a play button for reading text for the ending after scores that closes the ending and you can’t read it was such a killer. Then not being able to see the ending in the ending list is a bummer. Kind killed the end of what was a great experience. Also some of the action buttons hit area is to close together. Other then that great stuff in content.

I played through the A Time of War scenario and got stuck where there were no buttons to click forward. We restarted the app game and tried to proceed but of course some of the prompts changed and it ended up being weird with our current token allotment and app play.

Tried playing through today on a different device, same scenario and got stuck in the same place but different prompt (Gen 1, end of first round).

The app is inconsistent in crashing or looping events. Also the heavy reliance on it makes the game pace rather clunky.

I’m likely to get rid of the game simply because if I have to rely on an app for this game that realistically can’t be maintained forever, then that turns the game into a gigantic paperweight.

I should have paid more attention during the Kickstarter. App driven games that can’t be played without one are a lm absolutely awful idea. The whole point of tabletop games is to disconnect and this ruins the experience merging the two together.

Hopefully the developers will see how this has played out and will come out with an add on or supplement to the game to remove the app requirement. I’d be fine paying for another book or content to play the game without an app.

Throughout the first scenario it only narrated twice. I thought there would be a lot more narration. Sometimes it delayed to narrate too.

Will not work on iPad with 12.5.5
Phone app will run but the text and icons are way too small. The audio voice sounds rushed and is only heard a hand full of times. Would love to see this app’s quality live up to the board game’s production value.

iOS 12.5, the app will try and launch but crashes

Everything about the game is amazing except for the app. Nothing like playing a 3+ hour game only to have the app crash in the 9th round and be left not knowing how the story ends.

To the Dev: please fix the app bugs!!!
