- [R2] Marvel Unlimited Marvel Unlimited is worth it!: I’ve been a Marvel reader since age 8 in 1989, and I love reading new and old issues on Marvel Unlimited.
- [R5] Marvel Unlimited Worth every penny: I have a big physical library of comics but to have access to everything here without overtaking my small apartment is AMAZING!
- [R68] MARVEL SNAP Best Free to Play Card Game: It’s amazing how many cards I can get each month without spending any money on this game. The short game length makes it the perfect mobile game when you have a couple of minutes to kill while out in public or at home. The balance of the cards is great too, you can win with anything if you build your deck right and play well.
- [R62] MARVEL SNAP Probably the best CCG ever(?): This game solves a lot of the issues in the CCG world. As such, the gameplay feels very crisp and engaging. 1. Turns are simultaneous so there is very little downtime in between turns. And there is only 6 turns, so games are fast (~5 minutes) and still feel meaningful/fulfilling. 2. Snapping mechanic is an ingenious way to allow “worse”/greedy decks to be meta. Eve
- [R10] Marvel Unlimited Terrible UX: It’s fine once you are reading a particular comic, but the cryptic gestures needed to find your way back to a series, change viewing modes, switch to another comic, etc. make it miserable to use. Do I tap? Swipe? Which way? How many fingers? When does the X show up to get out? How do I find other books in a series? How do I find a new series to read? Why do some books scroll, some go
- [R12] Marvel Unlimited Great for reading, UI sucks: Please update this app. It desperately needs a ton of quality of life changes. Library management really sucks. We need the ability to select multiple items to add to library, mark as read, delete from library, etc. We also need the ability to make custom reading lists for ourselves. If we add a bunch of series to our library, we should be able to switch to an issue vi
- [R67] MARVEL SNAP Repeated Crashes within 10-15 seconds of each other: Many many crashes on IOS, needs IOS compatibility update and quick
- [R118] MARVEL SNAP Constant crashes: This game would be really really fun to play if you could actually play it for more then a few seconds before it crashes. Even on the lowest in game settings it is completely unplayable and infuriating.
- [R6] Marvel Unlimited Buggy: The app is okay. The reading experience is very good. The “page turns” are very smooth unlike some of the other reader apps. The selection is good unless you specifically read very old comics. Adding digital copies of physical purchases is a very nice feature. My issue is the bugs. The on that bothers me most is the recommendation system. It always shows the same comics. Always Star Wars, a
- [R31] Marvel Unlimited Great unless you want to read comics offline: No matter what I do now this once great app will only let you read comics while on Wi-Fi which is great unless you download a bunch of comics for say, a flight and none of them are available. And if you contact support they say there is nothing hey can do. How about give me my money back?
- [R70] MARVEL SNAP Crash City: Like everyone else has said. Game crashes waaaaay too often. Once every 5 mins. If you’re unlucky it’ll crash twice a match and you have to speed run back in praying you didn’t miss a turn. It crashes when you go to your card inventory, it crashes when you go to the card shop more than once, it crashes when you snap. This dev team is more concern with micro transactions than fixing the
- [R100] MARVEL SNAP Unplayable on iPhone: Fun game but barely functions on iPhone Games crash multiple times per match. Can’t use the store of look at my collection without crossing my fingers and hoping it doesn’t crash Crashes all the time
- [R32] Marvel Unlimited Great value!: I’ve always wanted to read Marvel comics. I read them as a kid but it was so expensive to get through a whole series. This subscription is a great value. It makes it so easy to keep track of what you’ve read and what you need to ready by adding them to your library.
- [R73] MARVEL SNAP Too expensive: You need to spend a fortune to be competitive
- [R111] MARVEL SNAP Micro transactions prices: This game is cool to play, but what is the deal with the prices for some of these micro transactions? 99$??? For one card and some boosters? Who’s buying these? Even 20 dollars is crazy
- [R16] Marvel Unlimited Can’t even log in: It literally won’t let me log in. And please don’t patronize me just fix this. I paid 10 dollars like everyone else and I can’t even log in and read the stuff I literally paid for.
- [R55] Marvel Unlimited Steals money: I canceled my subscription around 3 months ago and they have still charged me every time when you try to click customer support or manage subscription nothing happens and sometimes it takes you to a site that’s untrusted by apple because it’s a financial risk
- [R94] MARVEL SNAP Game doesn't work: Game doesn’t work. Support doesn’t help or care.
- [R115] MARVEL SNAP Loading screen bug: My account amongst others were hit with a bug that stops us from being able to open our account and we are stuck at 85% trying to load the game. When asking tech to help they never have any new news and this has been going on for a week now. No updates and i was told they were looking into it and stop asking for updates. I have spent tons of money and time on this game and don’
- [R41] Marvel Unlimited My Favorite App!: This app is awesome! Definitely my most used app! Gave it a shot to try it out and will now be using it indefinitely! It has so many comic options to choose from and the annual subscription price of $68.99 is very much worth it! Highly recommend!
