Very impressive deckbuilding game and great use of the theme! One question I had is if it is possible to remove a card from software without having to play it. I figured out you can disable a card but there didn't seem to be a way to remove it. Even if it cost a turn, that would be a welcome addition. Also the Sledge cards are OP!

This is fantastic. I still have boxes of the old android:netrunner game that we'll break out in my house from time to time so this entry is *extremely up my alley*. I initially shared similar frustrations as the other reviewers in finding the mechanics a bit byzantine without better but realized i missed the "next" button on the how to play screen (was playing fullscreen) so it's somewhat on me..
Don't really have notes, would love to get a frame story around this. Great job.
Very cool game! I think some things could be explained a bit more clearly, e.g. took me ages to work out how to take on multistage servers, and I didn't know what hacking servers other than the main and financial servers did. Started to really enjoy it when I got the hang of it. Looks great, very cyberpunk. Gameplay is really solid. Well done!
Really like the core idea here and the cyberpunk feel is pretty great. The UI is a bit hard to read at times and the game itself is quite complicated. I don't know if I didn't grasp it right but I'm pretty sure I soft locked my game because I could disconnect one card on my board but I could never remove it and it also never took damage. Because of this, I was unable to replace it with one of my damaging cards making it impossible to pass a level I ran into that required getting 20 twice in a row. Until that point, I was really enjoying the game and I felt pretty compelled to keep playing so you did a fantastic job.
Really fun game!
The music is great for this atmosphere and the graphics fit really nice. I had the feeling, that the gameplay was a bit too chill, but I truly enjoyed it! Will definitely play it again.
This game has a big potential! I have fun figuring out how it should be played but when I did, I spend an hour or more playing and having fun.
1. Game Design : 8/10
2. Fun : 9/10
3. Graphics: 8/10
4. Audio : 8/10
It can be improved with adding;
• a restart button,
• a better tutorial,
• some plot elements,
• with more depth about the enemies.
But overall even without all of this it's fun to play! Totally recommend it.
