Fun game, the way cards interact with each other and the variety of card effects guarantee that no run works the same way. It works differently from most other card games since every cards is disposable/can be removed from your deck in each fight and your entire deck and playstyle can change after each battle. Be aware the second act is much harder than the first with new bullet mechanics. Overall it's great value for money and deserves much more awareness that it's getting.
I really loved this game, and I wanted to share my thoughts and feedback with both potential players and the developers. First of all, I didn't have any high expectations of the game, but the art style caught my attention and it is truly good Story The story follows the Crow King, an anthropomorphic bird(?) ruling a kingdom and expanding his lands further and further. That's actually the whole story. It's quite simple, but it's still interesting to follow, and the game actively keeps you engaged. Gameplay A few words about the mechanics: I'm not fond of deck-builder genres, so I was quite skeptical before I ran it. Here's how the gameplay works: you start with a deck on a battlefield. The field consists of columns and the final column is the base that you need to destroy. Every turn your cards (that you put at the first column) advance further and each new column buffs your card. However, if you hit the final column (the enemy's base), your card will die. The gameplay is based on collecting cards on your way to the boss, defeating them and continuing the cycle. There are tons of things that may happen to your cards and you can create unique combinations. For instance, I had a card that gives me money and boosts morale for each poisoned card, so I made half my deck poisoned and that way I could farm money. Replayability The thing that I found cool is that the game is divided into two Acts and the mechanics in each Act are distinct, which allows you to replay both of them and it feels genuinely different. The story is not that long, but endless mode solves this problem. Drawbacks After all of the above, there are some drawbacks that developers may take into account for their future projects (and I hope there will be more games from them). Maybe it's my personal problem, but it was hard to understand the descriptions of some cards. English is not my native language, so sometimes I switched to Russian to make sure I got everything right, but it didn't clarify much, and the only thing left was to test it in practice. Moreover, there are some cards whose purpose I can't understand even now. Why would I even use them? Some cards can cause freezing or bleeding and I don't know how I'm supposed to use them to gain an advantage. Yes. there is tutorial and manual in game but it lacks details Another small element that I found annoying is that the history of your dead cards shows only their name and the cause of death. But sorry guys, I don't remember what the cards are called. It would be much better if I could hover over the name to see what the card is, or if I could name a card myself, because two the same card types can exist in your deck with the same name. Final Thoughts Honestly, all these drawbacks didn't affect me much and the game still feels amazing and draws me back to try new combinations or find the rest of the unopened cards. And remember... send the letter
This is REALLY good and needs more visibility so I suppose I'll help with a positive review. This game is Balatro meets Inscryption; a card battling game with weird logic, where figuring out that logic and making game-breaking combinations is necessary to win. Sprinkle in gambling elements and regrettable decisions, and you get something that triggers that "one more run" itch. The art, the lore, the effects, the music... it all blends together so nicely into a cozy, whimsical game with a lot of heart. Now the negatives: the game is divided into two acts, and the second act is quite different to the first; learning a different logic and getting smacked by a ridiculous final boss is what annoyed some people with a negative review. But once you get used to the interplay between the cards, it just feels like you're getting two games in one. Definitely worth full price; hoping to see more games in this universe!
This is nuts, the demo works great on deck, no modding needed, then you buy the full version and only half the touchscreen works, even on applying different proton compatibility versions don't fix the invisible boarder that won't register touches. In such, I can't begin a new game. Makes me want to request a refund, and just download the demo again, I feel like because of this it really shouldn't even be $14.99, but $4.99 regularly. Until this does get fixed users need to go options and enable windowed mode, otherwise you won't be able to reach the screens edges, which is required to navigate and play the game. Developer should at least mention in description that in order for it to work properly user might need to turn on public experimental proton and enable windowed mode, so no one else opens game and is unexpectedly met with these errors, until said errors are ironed out. I'm not going to be as ridiculous as some users in the forum asking for control inputs when the steam deck has a fully functional touchscreen to play with.
