Controls
Touch, game controller, Siri Remote and keyboard.
Touch (iPhone and iPad)
- Tap a tile to walk there. Walking into a tree, rock or plant gathers, walking into water fishes, and walking into a monster attacks.
- Tap a creature or another hero to target it. Tap your target again to attack it: chase and swing, or shoot from range with a bow.
- Tap your own hero, or ME beside the target frame, to target yourself.
- Target frame (under health and mana): its arrows step through everything on screen.
- Action bar (above the backpack): the weapon button attacks your target, the arrows dial picks what your bow fires, and the readied ability is used with a tap and swapped with its arrows. See Targeting and abilities.
- Drag to change where you're walking.
- Long-press (0.4 s) a card to inspect it. Long-press your own hero to open the hero panel.
- Pinch to zoom.

Siri Remote (Apple TV)
- Swipe the touch surface, or press the click ring, for directions.
- Click attacks your target, Play/Pause goes to the action bar, and Back stops.
- On the action bar, focus starts on the readied ability: left/right swaps it, click uses it on your target. Move up to the target frame (left/right steps through targets, click targets you) or across to the arrows. Back returns to the board.
- The remote has no X, L or R buttons. Play/Pause also reaches the HUD buttons for the bag, map and skills.
