Fun and entertaining card game with strategic elements similar to Big 2, Poker, and Uno.
Nice aesthetic and theme with fitting Oriental background music and sound effects.
Good digital implementation for solo play against AI and local multiplayer with friends.

Tutorial is poor, unclear, or nearly nonexistent, making learning the game difficult.
Gameplay can be slow, sluggish, and sometimes frustrating due to long AI processing and forced plays.

- “I've been so used to anything over 120+ fps that it just seems slow, but that doesn't affect the gameplay.”

- “I've been so used to anything over 120+ fps that it just seems slow, but doesn't affect the gameplay.”
