Gday CardLovers, The Dark Horde is a fantastic deckbuilder that utilises time to play out cards rather than the mana or energy as in a turn based concept. This unique gameplay combined with collecting gold and souls and the familiar open packs to obtain rare cards and upgrade your deck just works. The game is in pre release BETA so I will review it fully on release but at the absurd price and the fact that the devs are releasing new content and upgrades constantly it is a no brainer purchase. Hours of fun for 10$

A hidden gem! This is a really fun game with incredible music. There's a lot of strategy involved too, as you have to balance your time with summoning monsters and casting spells. The artwork is top notch. I love the classic monsters theme, plus summoning the grim reaper is so much fun! Love it!

The pixel art is cute and charming, watching those lil guys bouncing around is a joy. The gameplay loop and the colors do well in satiating my ADHD tendencies, im locked in when im playing this. This game has so much to offer at a great price point. I enjoy the time-unit mechanic, theres always something happening to keep you engaged and if you wanna slow down you can take your time. The synergy possibilities is fun to interact with in the deck-building making the decision making enjoyable for me. The replay value is high, im always end up lying to myself when I say just one more run.

Insanely fun game with so much content. I really don’t understand how this is only early access. I can’t wait to play more of this. There are barely any reviews for this year but every review is upwards of 40 hours playtime. Honestly that’s way more of a recommendation that tons of 30 minute playtime reviews. New to Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 this is definitely the most engaging game I’ve played so far this year. Need to play more but I just wanted to do my part to help boost the positivity for this great game. Buy this. Stupidly good with so much content for like $6
