Ratings and reviews

I really love this game. I have a lot of fun with it, but occasionally, I'll get matches where it'll only let me play one or two rounds and then just start skipping my turn every time after that. I'm pretty sure it's not lag, because I'm able to still do the emotes, and the other players respond fairly quickly. It seems like the game is just glitching out and not letting me play. I also couldn't find any options to contact any customer support to otherwise report this issue.

Terrible mobile app, buggy to the point of being non-functional. There are standard-legal cards that don't work. Constant crashing and freezing. Every day I log in, I experience at least one match where the UI becomes uninteractable. In summary, there are no components of the app that work acceptably. And the app has been in this state for a long time with no sign of improvement. Unfortunately representative of the poor quality control we have come to expect from the franchise.

It's...okay. Like many others here, I miss the old version--but even ignoring its prequel, this game is frustratingly buggy on both my phone and computer; There is a special kind of rage that comes with being unable to select a key card while the turn timer is rapidly dropping. That said, it's still a must-have for anyone wanting to learn the TCG. Especially when it comes to tricky wording on some cards--you might play it wrong irl, but you can't play it wrong online.
