    35 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for its fast-paced, strategic mechanics that offer a unique twist on traditional card games, with features like simultaneous turns and real-time action selection enhancing the experience.

    • “The gameplay is fairly similar to Hearthstone.”
    • “It adds another dimension to the gameplay and makes it feel exciting and competitive.”
    • “The play mechanics (real-time action selection) are novel, so the first few games take some getting used to, but once you understand what's going on, it has a great flow to it.”
    • “Some gameplay issues: I found myself trying to click and drag a card five times before I was able to play, and sometimes not being able to make a last-second play because the card wouldn't drag.”
    • “Until you are familiar with some of the mechanics and cards, the timers in this game will seem very fast and confusing.”
  • graphics
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are widely praised for their superb artwork and card design, with many users noting that the visuals are a significant improvement over similar titles like Hearthstone. While the overall art style is considered amazing, some players mention that the user interface and options menu could use improvement, and there is a lack of variety in effect graphics. Overall, the game's graphics contribute positively to the immersive experience.

    • “Very nice graphics and sound.”
    • “Graphics and animations are really nice; rare cards 'feel' real.”
    • “I like it a lot better than Hearthstone; it's just more fun and the graphics and music are both amazing.”

  • story
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game lacks a traditional story mode, with players expressing frustration over lengthy quests and the absence of daily quests to enhance gameplay. Additionally, technical issues, such as freezing during the tutorial, detract from the overall experience.

    • “No story mode.”
    • “One of the quests takes more than 1 hour to complete (please remove this 'win 20 games' quest...).”
    • “As of writing this, there are no daily quests or anything to help spike your income should you only be able to play for a small amount each day.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally praised for its great soundtrack, which enhances the excitement of close matches with fast-paced tracks, while also providing soothing melodies that many players find enjoyable. However, some users feel that the addition of more soundtrack pieces and improved character lines could further enhance the experience. Overall, the music is considered a strong point, surpassing that of similar games like Hearthstone.

    • “The soundtrack is great; it can hype a close match with some fast-paced music.”
    • “Soundtrack is nice and soothing.”
    • “I like it a lot better than Hearthstone; it's just more fun, and the graphics and music are both amazing.”
    • “Other than a couple more soundtrack pieces and a little effort towards simple lines from characters would help this game a great deal, as well as an actual options menu that is designed for a PC.”
    • “Music is soothing.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability has been criticized due to frequent freezes, particularly during the tutorial mission, leading to a frustrating experience for players who find themselves troubleshooting more than actually playing. This buggy release has contributed to a negative perception, diminishing the overall enjoyment of the game.

    • “I tried giving this game a chance, but I spent more time troubleshooting than playing.”
    • “That's not a good sign considering that the buggy release and cash model don't exactly give you much reason to stick.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat unsatisfying, often requiring significant time investment for rewards, which can detract from the overall experience.

    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
    • “The rewards system is rather unsatisfying and can be a little grindy.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization in this free-to-play collectible card game is well-received, as players feel it does not exploit them for money and offers a fun experience without feeling like a cash grab.

  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the high replayability of the game, citing numerous levels and the element of bluffing that encourages varied strategies and interactions in each playthrough.

    • “There are a lot of levels and bluffing to be done between players, offering a good deal of replay value.”
