    The game is frequently plagued by bugs and freezes, causing issues like missing stats, ignored cards, and UI glitches, especially on tablets. While the gameplay itself is enjoyable, these stability problems significantly impact the overall experience and need improvement. Many users feel the price isn't justified given the current level of instability.

    • “Definitely a 5 when it's bug free.”
    • “Actually a great game; runs great and the UI is good.”
    • “So far I'm loving the gameplay, when it works... there are several times when cards stack, such as monster enhancers or special situations like one-shot items paired with a fight-ending card like 'Out to Lunch,' where the game just acts like it's continually loading and freezes up.”
    • “Clerics can no longer resurrect (but the AI players can, for some reason), played cards are randomly ignored, and glitches galore.”
    • “Game freezes, dice do not display correct rolls, and other small bugs litter the game.”

    Gameplay is generally enjoyable but comes with a notable learning curve and some frustrating issues, including unintuitive controls, small interface elements on phones, and occasional bugs affecting item functionality. The AI can sometimes break game rules, and the timer mechanic may skip turns unfairly, detracting from the overall experience. Despite these flaws, the core gameplay remains appealing compared to the original card game.

    • “The mechanics of the turn took a few tries to work out (was accidentally running when wanting to fight) but that was a me issue.”
    • “Plus they didn't have these pointless transitions between parts of the gameplay.”
    • “Definitely a learning curve but was pleasantly surprised with the gameplay.”
    • “Not sure why all the high reviews, borderline unplayable with the touch screen and card mechanics.”
    • “But playing as a video game with an AI system that can defy the mechanics and rules of the game sucks horribly.”
    • “Need to fix these bugs because it ruins the gameplay when the items don't even work as supposed to.”
  • monetization

    Users criticize the monetization as a cash grab, preferring a straightforward purchase price over microtransactions. Despite enjoying the card game itself, they feel the implementation is poorly executed and overly focused on extracting money.

    • “Rather play this for that price than a micro-transaction cash grab that says it's free gaming.”
    • “Just another cash grab, it seems.”
    • “Love the card game, but this is a poorly coded cash grab.”
  • optimization

    The game generally runs smoothly with good background ambiance and authentic card designs, though some optimization improvements are needed, such as increasing the text size on cards. Overall, it promises an enjoyable experience.

    • “Game runs smoothly, the background ambience is good, the cards are all authentic and look great (should be a bit bigger text on cards)!”
