This game is insanely good, Slay the Spire levels good. I played it a bunch on mobile and decided to buy it on PC to support the devs. The equipment combinations are crazy interesting and fun, the enemies super varied and quite insane at times, the classes all play differently, etc. It has an enormous amount of content and replayability too. The game plays like your classic card roguelite but with more enemies and kinda crazier and more punishing mechanics. Similarly, your deck of cards has some insanely strong cards, even when compared to other games in the genre. The game lets you change your starting decks of cards which won't change during the run, so it's not a matter of getting that one God run, but rather how good you are at using the deck you picked. In that sense the game plays a ton like magic or hearthstone in the best way possible. The visuals are a subjective matter, I personally love the gritty pixel art, but it wouldn't surprise me that people get turned off by it. There are a few issues, notably the game needs to be more clear with secret unlocks. The subclasses should also unlock differently than basically "play the subclass to unlock the actual subclass", or balancing the subclasses unlocked to go more in depth than just adding minor stat changes. The level ups many times feel quite useless too, and some are tied to actual RNG which is not great, same with that one archer card, although in his case it makes sense thematically. If you want a more puzzle based Slay the Spire/etc definitely pick this up, it's definitely up there. Pretty sad the remake was cancelled too, because balance wise this game only need a few little tweaks to be basically perfect.
Card- Quest is a card-driven, campaign-centered game with rouge-like/lite aspects. One of the defining characteristics of this game is that it is card-driven, but is not really a deck-builder in the traditional sense. At game start-up, after choosing one of the four common archetype toons (wizard, archer, etc.), you will select up to four pieces of equipment. This equipment primarily serves to populate your deck. After this selection process, your deck will not change (outside of one-time only unlocks, which allow for card swaps). You are unable to trash cards. You are unable to get new cards. You are unable to upgrade existing cards. There are no relics to find to make a run unique. What you start with is what you roll with for the entire run. The run will take place in one of three areas, each of which has different paths of nodes representing different locations. Each path of nodes is identical from run-to-run. Within each location you will fight multiple battles. Upon finishing a node for the first time you will unlock a (fixed) piece of new equipment for the given character. For the most part, the new equipment probably isn’t strictly better than what you are using now, though it may be more effective in a given area. It is likely that you will be unable to finish the given area all of the way through with the equipment that you started the run with. The task then becomes to push deep enough into another area to obtain more equipment, which hopefully synergizes well enough in a given area to either complete said area, or to at least push deep enough to get you yet more equipment. The unlocking system is unique enough, and on its own not terrible, as the meta-progression is satisfying. Unfortunately, this system will see you fighting the same areas over and over again, and given the lack of randomness from run-to-run, against the same foes, with largely the same loadout. Pros: ++ The graphics combined with the text-based story telling provided a romantic vibe akin to games of the 80s and 90s. The story-telling was interesting enough (the first time I saw each narrative anyway). ++ The enemies and their mechanics, combined with your own abilities made for solid card-based combat. + In a vacuum, I liked the meta-progression of being rewarded for conquering each node. + The was a subclass system which had interesting constraints and solid rewards. Noting that I had no idea subclasses even existed due to the poor interface, until I stumbled upon their mention on the internet. Cons: --- The tedium of doing the same areas, against the same monsters, with largely the same deck (both between and within runs) is way too much. This point cannot be overstated in my opinion. -- ‘Hidden’ enemies were largely an unfun mechanic. -- Some battles are much more drawn out then I want them to be, especially for given decks. - Health is quite challenging to come by. You could easily be wiped after just a few missteps or bad draws. On its own, this may be expected in games such as this. However, the prospect of starting over and doing the same stuff yet again highlights this as an issue. Summary: The near complete lack of diversity and randomness killed this game for me long before I should have gotten bored with it. However, I am giving this game a very weak recommend since you will likely find some solid gameplay for one character (I chose the mage) until you get bored. Plus, the game is like $5 on sale. That said, I can’t imagine playing these same areas over and over (and over) for all four characters, so if you are OCD about completing games, you may wish to avoid this one. Overall: 5.5/10
Genuinely a great game and pacing. You discover new things that open up easier pathways and tactics in increasing complexity and satisfaction. Learning moments stay with you and improve your skills. The graphics are retro but still creative and detailed. One mixed aspect (both good and bad) is that it feels very very calculated. It isn't totally 'random' card drawing - if it was, you'd probably lose a lot more. The game is figuring out the best strategies using the cards on hand, typically there's only 1 or 2 "right" choices on what action you should choose next. Sometimes not taking action is the right choice. Sort of feels a bit like a +1 0 -1 situation - and the cards you pull are sometimes in "response" to the good or bad choices. To either teach you a lesson, or reward your considered action. Gambling seems to not be rewarded as much as "making the obvious/safe choice" which is really just rewarding tactical decision making. There are tons of little surprises, the stories are enough to give some mild fluff. It can get frustrating not being able to progress sometimes - this often means you need to try a different area and path to find some new equipment that 'busts through' the circumstances you are getting stuck on elsewhere. There is never just 'one right approach' for long - before things can get stale or repetitive, the tactics change up and your choices start to matter more again. You uncover more chains and methods within the mixes of decks and items you can equip. It would be kind of cool to see if it could work as an actual deck duelling system. Recommended!
This is to me one of the best "deckbuilder" games ever made. There's almost zero randomness, you build your entire deck at the start of the game (which is how actual physical deck building card games work) and try to survive until the end picking the right challenges suited for your cards. There are a couple of extra abilities and stat increases to gain along the way and further tailor your build, but most of the toolkit you have from the start. There is 4 classes, each with their own unique card pool, subclasses to unlock with their own unique spin on the main mechanic, dozens of equipment configurations. If you want to unlock everything this game has to offer, there is a lot.
