Fun enough game, but there isn't enough content to justify the price. Would love to see more unlocks, more trinkets, and a greater diversity of strategies.

Lot of good things going for this game, optimally using the board is a skill and once you do so, it doesn't feel like you're cast to the winds of fate regarding if you can make it work or not. You can tell a lot of time and effort was spend in considerations towards the different builds. Definitely had a few "why did they design it like this?" questions early on but most of it makes sense. I do feel like you have to hyper focus on one build vs another pretty early on and doesn't let you play around with something more balanced. Some cards and events seem kinda pointless, but I still recommend this to try out as a deckbuilder.

Awesome game that mixes card strategy and puzzle matching in a fun, addictive way. You pick a character, build a deck, and chain tiles on a grid to fight enemies in a spooky, colorful world. Every game feels different with random maps and over 200 cards, so it’s always exciting to play again. It’s easy to learn but challenging, perfect for fans of strategy or puzzles.

I feel cheated that they described the game as a chain-3 mechanics, because it's absolutely not a swapping thingy like the popular Candy Crush style. Instead you link the same icons across the entire board by drawing a line with your cursor and it can even do diagonals, which makes you a god with such easy chaining. It's still a rather interesting game that still yet breathes more freshness into our beloved deck-building stew, and for that alone, it's still totally worth the money. Animations are subpar with them all being still pictures that tilt at angles to mimic movement. But the artwork is still cute and overall polished like steel. I still like it, and it's still a steal.

This game really captures the gameplay and deckbuilding power creep of its inspiration, [i]Slay the Spire[/i]. It has a lot of interesting and fun mechanics that make it really hard to put down. The art is something else: all the characters and art make it look like it was made by some bottom-tier developer who was contracted to develop a game featuring your favorite 2000's-era fast food mascot characters. That said, the animations are really nice and even if everything looks really cheesy, there was a good amount of attention paid to the details. The gameplay mechanics of juggling whether you want to play a card, match on the board, or both, is really well-done. There are kind of a lot of resources to take advantage of which at first seems like too much, at least to me, but after some time in the game I came to see that it was a good design choice relating to the puzzle board. This game is really great, it deserves to be played, you should buy it.

An oddly addicting mix of card play and tile matching. The game takes some strategy to complete the boards. Definitely a way to lose hours at a time.
