**Platform, device version and operating system**  
iPad Air 2, iOS 10.3.2

**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened**  
When I attempt to launch the game, it crashes before loading assets.

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
It seems to be happening on first launch every day. Subsequent launches are fine.

I have collected a number of these crashes, but this UI doesn’t allow me to attach a zip file.  
Here’s an excerpt from the crash; perhaps it will help a developer debug this:

I’ve complained about this for several versions now. I hope your extra information will assist the devs in tracking down the source of this annoyance.

Hey @Sisyphus Thanks for that.

This will require a deeper look from the dev team, can I create an account on our Support for you? If not, you can do so here… [https://gemsofwar.zendesk.com/hc/en-us](https://gemsofwar.zendesk.com/hc/en-us)

Or you don’t have to, let me know.

I don’t really need to be updated on this.

Since I work as an iOS developer (not games), I figured I could provide crash information others might not have access to. Without knowing the code behind the addresses in my original report, it still looks like a very consistent error day-to-day.
