Good job! Will come and play it more thoroughly, trying to get through a basic test run and at least give it a try! Trying to get to everyone I can!

Hey there, I am trying to get other to re-submit their reviews for my game if possible...it was deleted and removed from the Jam on accident based on a technicality which was solved between the Jam Host and a particular asset used in the game...please if you have time, energy, and/or generosity to re-saved your ratings/reviews for the game. I am going through and re-saving yours given my browser kept your rating saved data on my end...but it looks like I lost all 73 reviews and ratings from my end....  :( best of luck to you in the Jam 

Sorry for the inconvenience if you have a chance to rate/re-rate

Developer

very solid game with nice mechanic ,it was a bit hard to understand at first but it was managable once i got a grip of the main mechanic,though a double domino piece would happen when i draw a bit too often the gameplay is still quite fair. music and style give it an old-school vibe and atmosphere that is pleasing to play in even if ost is a bit annoying at a time. ui and interface is great though could've been explained more like player and opponent's hand or fast travel pin that still stack together sometime. overall its a great and (questionably)balanced card game

I think this is a very well designed game.  It feels very complicated at first but tutorial is pretty explanatory for learning the  rules of the game. I like the D&D style story telling. The game board is very well designed. This game gave me a very strong MS DOS 90's game vibe, the music the art all of it. You did a fantastic job in the art design. The magic cards, game board, opponents hands everything looks great. 

I haven't played too many of these kind of games like deck builders etc. but i know that in these games, there's always this randomness. Some things are determined by pure luck. This game have the same characteristic and that's something i don't particularly like. It plays a great role in this game too. It gets especially annoying when the luck is greatly in favour of your opponent. 

It's a very nice mechanic that every boss has a different skill which makes them distinctive.  It is fun to play this game, it makes you think and strategize like chess or poker. It's hard to see games like these in game jams so this game is definitely worthy of praise. Also the genre and theme of the game is very unique too. If you impove and polish it further, i think this could be a very succesfull game. Great job and good luck!

Too complicated tutorial just to start playing, really nothing motivates to learn stuff when the opponent just steals your dominos and casts fireballs every time i try to do something. But at the same time, project that so much complex already have equal amount of potential in it, sadly the barrier of entry is too high in my opinion(

Developer

You are right, the gameplay can be really frustating for new players, we will try to fix it soon :( thanks for your review!

Developer

Adding to this, maybe starting with the thief boss was not the best idea, as he is quite punishing, so thanks for your feedback, it’s helping us improve!

Very interesting concept, I was a bit lost and lost very fast, but I can still see that this is a very good game. Plays very well, I like the art style and the sounds and music feel very good with the crunchy sound.  However, the sound was crackling which made it a bit annoying to play.

Developer

Thanks for playing and appreciating the effort :D!

Good concept, but it's confusing, I don't understand why the boss keeps taking my pieces, and it's strange to always go to the middle to get more pieces, the concept is good but needs more polished design

Developer

Thanks for your feedback, yeah, I think clarity and some quality of life are the biggest things still missing.
