Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. No ads, no loot boxes, nothing that buys power. Badges and card backs are earned by playing; the only thing for sale is the optional Early Supporter pack, which is cosmetic only and helps keep the tavern open.

Do I need an account?

No. You can play The Long Road and multiplayer as a guest. An account keeps your standings, matches and time played, and lets you add friends and chat.

Where is my Long Road progress saved?

In your browser, on that device. It survives closing the tab, but not clearing your browser data, a private window, or a different device or browser.

Can I play on my phone?

Yes, in any modern mobile browser. A bigger screen shows more of the table at once.

How do I play with friends?

Press Multiplayer, then Create a room, and send your friends the room code or the link. Up to 8 players; empty seats are bots. With an account you can invite online friends with one click.

I cannot find other players.

Use Find players and wait a little, or press Start now: bots fill the empty seats and you play at once.

What happens if I leave a match or lose my connection?

A bot plays your seat with your board, hero and relics. Come back, or reload the page, and you take your seat back from the next turn.

How long is a turn online?

45 seconds plus 5 more each turn, up to 90. In the last seconds a drum warns you; if time runs out, the game ends your turn for you.

Can people cheat?

Every player’s game replays every other player’s turn from its moves, so an edited page cannot change a match. Turns that do not add up are reported and checked, and cheaters are banned.

How do I turn the music or sounds down?

The gear button at the top right: sounds, music and voices each have their own volume. There is also Fast combat and Fewer animations.

Something on the road is hidden or strange. Is it a bug?

Maybe not. The road keeps a few secrets, and some things only show themselves once you have met them. If something looks broken, report it.

I found a bug.

Thank you! Press “Report a bug” at the bottom left of any screen. It sends what the game was doing, so tell us in a sentence what you saw.

Can I stream or record the game?

Yes, gladly, also on monetised channels.

Which languages?

English for now.

How do I delete my account?

Log in, open your profile, and press Delete my account at the bottom. Everything is deleted at once.
