My group meets about every other week to play Descent via the app and we've been chugging along just fine playing the Nerkhal expansion and we got to the last week before the first mandatory quest. We decided to do the last quest that was available (help out some villagers who were duped by mages) and once one of our party members selected that she was KO'd the game immediately ended the quest in a fail state and gave up money, then read us the "you failed dialogue". I've not seen anything like that before (but we are new to the app) so we wrote it off as bad luck. So we start the mandatory quest to go help the main character (it involved closing green portals that monsters kept streaming out of) and get about halfway through the quest when the same party member dies. Same thing happens. We get a fail state and the game reads us a very long set of {continue} screens which eventually leads us to having that adventure now done and we now have a few weeks before the next mandatory one has to be done.
Is this normal or is there a bug? Short of never telling the app that one of us dies is it going to crash on us again? Or are some of these missions setup to auto fail if any of you die? That feels off, and the app never tells us that this would even be a possibility as far as I can tell.
Please advise.
