Some board games transition nicely to the mobile game world.
Thunderbox Entertainment created The Captain is Dead, which is based on the board game, where you might have guessed who is dead.
We wanted to take a break from some of the Idle style games and try something different.
The game puts you in charge of crew members on a besieged starship.
You must co-ordinate the crew to repair critical systems and fend off hostile aliens, or you will share the captain’s fate. From the Chief Engineer, Weapons Officer, and visiting Admiral, all the way down to the Ensign and the ship’s Janitor, you must combine your unique talents to avoid utter annihilation in the cold depths of space!
The game sounds easy enough. It is a turn based system where you move crew members around your board to fix the ship and prepare for the aliens. But you would be wrong as the game is challenging
We do like the option where you can change the difficulty of the level. This way you can get some practice and build on your success.
The game should continue to improve as we see the developers adding more characters. If you don’t mind shelling out a few bucks, you should add this to your collection.
Currently the game costs $9.99 on the Google Play store.
