Ratings and reviews

It's a good game, no question, probably one of the better mobile deck builders out there. Unfortunately many cards, talents, and combinations require experimentation to see if they really work as they say and as expected, and you'll often find yourself scratching your head wondering why it didn't. If the team was more stringent in ensuring that things do what they say and no more or less, it'd be much better. But for me, the consistent unpredictability is a tough swallow.

In short, a great rogue-like deckbuilder. This game has a lot of depth, I've sunk a ton of hours into it. Well polished, rarely encounter a bug and when I do its always minor. Devs make constant updates to the game, its probably twice the size it was when I started. I've bought all the expansions. Even the easiest difficulty can be a challenge at first, but there are several difficulty levels as you learn the game and unlock more starting options.

I played it before they added Fateshards as a "progression system" (which doubled the amount of time to progress). The game is really fun, doesn't require internet, but forces things like currency based progression for no reason. Either reduce the cost of fateshard related items or increase their drop rate. Shouldn't take 3-5 hours for a couple of upgrades. Developers do actually care about their game, though, and it shows. 3 stars for unnecessary inconvenience.
