Bug #1. Disarming/Opening Chests causes a "lock up". You can "escape" the problem by leaving the chest but it does means you lose the chest. I have lost around 10% to 25% of my chests because of this... frustrating but not show stopping.

Bug #2. Pauses/Freezing during battle. In most cases this only results in a player just not doing anything. I would swear sometimes it just a missed attack or ineffective spell but there is no "log" so I am not sure. The game does soft lock for a little bit and I am just watching the monsters dance their little jig but its usually done after 5 seconds. This happens a lot but so far it has not caused me any major losses in battle but there will be a time when it does I am sure.

But #3. Complete Lock in Battle... I have to quit the WHOLE game to get out of this one. It has only happened to be twice in two days but that is still not fun to deal with.

I've experienced that one as well.

I've also heard a lot of audio glitching in the form of the audio dropping out for anywhere from a moment to several seconds.

I have also experienced the short freeze bug in battles.
But not yet the one with the chests, but then I haven't had that many yet.

I have heard the audio glitches too, but since I have wireless headphones I assumed it was from interference as I have several wireless devices nearby.

So, I've had both of these happen while I was poking --

The chest usually does this to me on open, after check/disarm, and just requires me to hit the "confirm" thing again to pick who wants to open it (so I have to open the chest twice)

The character hanging may be a leftover from the Apple II version, because apparently there too it happens; seemingly appears to be if the character's random target in an enemy group dies before their turn.

Excellent corroborated feedback, all -- added to the dev team investigation list

Completely locked too in battle, had to shutdown and restart happen 3 times in under 15 minutes.
