    The gameplay of the product is currently lacking, particularly for serious tabletop and card game designers, as it struggles to support the creation of large-scale or complex games. Despite being in early access, it does not meet the necessary standards for those looking for a robust design tool.

    • “However, it is over halfway through the early access period, and in its current state, I could not recommend this product as a specialty tool for anybody serious about tabletop game design or card game design, as it would likely struggle to properly create any large-scale or mechanically intense game that relies a lot on the features I outlined above.”

    Users find the grinding aspect of certain tools for card game development to be tedious and off-putting, which has deterred them from pursuing their projects.
