This is exactly the type of game I like. Quite brilliant in simplicity and still with a ridiculous amount of depth

Peter Whalen, for the love of all that is good, make a sequel or just more games like this. I realise you're printing money with Riot games but this game is special. I believe that a sequel to this game could make the world a better place. Now you might think that's crazy, but only one person can prove me right or wrong..... do it Peter.

It is very unwise to be turned off from Dream Quest, and any game, purely from how it looks. This game teaches something fundamental in gaming, which is that making something fun is better than making something that looks "good". Could this game visually be seen as "Low quality"? By many, yes. But 1: who cares, and 2: I honestly don't even think this game looks that bad. It has a natural, real charm to it that can't be understated. Especially in this sick world we're in now where people shamelessly "create" things with The Machine That Does Everything For You™, and actually expect people like me and you to not only give a ♥♥♥♥ about it, but to feel any sort of emotion from it. This game is unapologetically itself aesthetically and I highly respect that. All that aside, the game is just fun. Very simple stuff on the surface, but the consistent pace of unlocks keeps things refreshing, and the uniqueness of the classes completely revamp the game in their own gimmicky, special ways. This game has so many different mechanics all combined into it that are all just FUN and that's what's so important here. The person who made this game knows what fun is and you can tell when you play it. Interestingly, you may notice some mechanics in this similar to stuff you see in Slay The Spire and later eras of Hearthstone, despite it being made years before all that. It sounds crazy to say, but there's a non-zero chance this game paved the way for the way roguelites and digital TCG's are designed today, despite its small following. For this, it is a true anomaly in rougelites and card games in general. A real wonder of the two genres.

Don't be fooled by the simplistic look of this game, it is well worth the price, no matter how much you ask for it. This is a Roguelike card game that is very run-centric. You will die, A LOT, lol. Just take it in stride. This will run on any device up to HD resolution. Still here? Just buy it.
