I am not a big enjoyer of deck builders, but neither dislike it. I played Slay the Spire, Hellcard and few more. They were ok, but didn't really left me impressed. Chrono Ark, however, got me hooked completely. Fantastic game that takes and blends together elements from several successful games. You have "decks" represented as dedicated characters that provide unique gameplay. Party management and some combat elements are one to one Darkest Dungeon, except no Stress. Characters don't die upon reaching 0 health, instead being at Death Door and have high chance of dying on next damage instance. Another DD's element is camps where you heal up and talk. Then there's story, presented in form of Visual Novel. It's not fantastic, but still enjoyable with highs and lows. Some twists were unexpected, although last bits got too binary. This element copies Hades's approach: you need to do successful runs to advance plotline, although losing also reveals some context and bits. Game offers an easy mode if you just want to get through for the story. Music is very nice. Visuals are the usual 2D anime style. If you like it then you like it. And there is a good number of mods in workshop. Mostly characters from other titles. All in all: a jam of a game. I had neglected my obligations and responsibilities for several evenings and nights in a row due to getting sucked, haha. If you like Chaos Zero Nightmare, then know this - Chrono Ark is a "predecessor" of CZN.

Holy moly this is a turn-based game with just the right amount of RNG, innovative mechanics, a lot of moving parts leading to some sweet complexity AND an amazing story that fully embraces the roguelike nature of the game and lets it elevate the theme. It even has a banger OST. Genuinely a 10/10 game, it is criminal how obscure this game is.

For how good this game is, how well everything is put together, this game should have been talked about by everyone. This game is not comparable with slay the spire - you get such an different experience that you can not compare these two deckbuilder, but i have more fun personally with chrono ark then slay the spire. Why? - A suprisingly athmospheric, suprisingly dark Stoy. - a nice blend of turn based fights and deckbuilding, that reminds me of old dungeon crawler. You and your group trying to synergize the hsit out of the fights . And oh boy with the amount on characters and combinations possible your in for experimenting. The blend in itself is nothing new. But i saw now other game reaching this level of quality and quantity with the possible team members and their combinations and synergizing with others. - good music - pretty well polished. - very addicting gameplay loop. - The bossfights are insanly good done. You mostly can not steamroll a boss

The First game I ever felt like I needed to get every achievement in. Its clear this game was made out of passion; the story, characters, and gameplay are all so well crafted it fells like a perfect blend. This game is my favorite game of all time, I look forward to any other games this developer makes. If you think this looks even slightly interesting, please give it a shot.
