User Reviews

Ascension is beloved for its deep deckbuilding, expansions, and portability, with strong longevity and value. However, multiple reviews highlight recurring problems: loss of purchases and failed restores, ongoing performance bugs and sluggishness, and online play instability. These reliability issues temper an otherwise strong mobile deckbuilder that fans have cherished for years.

Pros

Rich, long-running deckbuilding experience with a large number of expansions and mix-and-match options.
High replayability and depth; players can keep playing for years and keep it fresh with different decks.
Excellent mobile accessibility; playable anywhere on iPhone/iPad with strong value from starter packs and bundles.
Online and local play options with solid CPU challenge; supports pass-and-play and internet play.

Cons

Purchases and restoration issues: decks and promo packs can be lost across devices and the restore purchases button often fails, with slow or unresponsive support.
Persistent stability and performance problems: game can be sluggish, has bugs, crashes to the title screen, and some issues persist across updates.
Online play reliability: frequent login friction and mid-game issues that disrupt online matches.

[Note: the free base-game is hours and hours of fun] I have been playing this one app for almost a decade, and beyond all hopes and dreams, they keep releasing expansions and keeping the experience fresh. Online and local multiplayer, tons of customization options, and always new gameplay. Really unmatched by any other digital board game!
