A really unique card game mixed with turn based strategy. I liked it the older version where there was less randomness cards and effects but still a really great game

The game had its fair share of issues, but the raw graphics and unique strategies kept me hooked - I ended up grinding the ladder for hundreds of hours. Eventually, the devs clearly ran out of ideas. They nerfed OTK combos but added zero new content. It was obvious the game would never attract new players without major updates. Now the servers are shut down and the game is dead. Instead of fixing or supporting the original, the developers are pushing their "ULTIMATE" version - which has even worse graphics and no collection transfer. It’s basically a lazy N+ with nothing new and zero effort put in. Good luck, devs. You lost me. Save your time and skip games from these kinds of "passionate" developers.
decent as far as phone games go
nice
Bad game, not beginner friendly. You think you are doing great but then the opponent uses some broken combo.
Literally unplayable. I think the devs pulled the plug, it requires but does not allow a log in.
Super graphics!
