The gameplay is great and the music is great. The downside is that the game is not very stable. It frequently crashes and also it often hits various bugs causing the cards to not do what they're supposed to do, especially after a crash and a reload. I'm still recommending it because it's cheap and I definitely enjoyed it more than I would enjoy, say, a pizza, but you can't really time-sink into it because soon the various bugs start getting under your skin

A nice and interesting deckbuilding game with fresh elements. The oldschool graphic fits really well and I'm excited to see more of this little gem. ;-)
Full play through here: https://youtu.be/Jh0uPyr3ihs review: I can only rate what I was able to play and it will be subject to change as this game leaves early access, but as it is now it's not worth 9.99. The battles are forever long the achievements don't work this game is feast or famine you either get so ridiculously strong nothing can touch you or you're getting smacked by regular elite mobs. The concept is good it's pretty intricate on the way things work, but I think it also contributes to the balance mismatch as you can easily abuse the system. There's no upgrades or unlocks or anything if you fail a run either, so there's not much replay value if you smash through it no real progression at all like slay the spire which this game seems to be heavily based on at least you unlocked cards. Glitches some random squares even if it's not a disable square will make it where your card won't have an effect this happened numerous times in my play through. On one playthrough I was only d...
Pros: Nice deck-building roguelike game in the spirit of Slay the Spire. It is much more challanging to do battles as you have to put your cards in a 3x3 grid and they have to connect properly (it feels like solving mini-puzzle every round). Cons: A little content for now, but I have it is good purchase for a low price that can get you few hours of fun gaming and possibly even more with addition of new content.
I really begin to love this game. In the beginning I thought "Well, game mechanics somewhat like 'night cities', fun, but not too hard to win" but man what a difference it makes, if you add rules which add/remove boni and mali to certain cells. For 10 bucks a must have in my opinion.
Great game so far, cant wait to see what it develops into
Very cool take on the deckbuilding roguelike genre. Music is good, if repetitive. The puzzle feature really makes you think about your turns and allows for some fascinating combos.
