Dog And Goblin

EDIT: I have changed my review to do not recommend due to months of the developer putting off updates with weak excuses ("more to come soon" and 3 months pass). I will never buy a game from this publisher or developer again, as this game was sold to me under the context that there would be future cards added. As is, it is hard to justify paying for knowing that it is fully completed in the eyes of the developer. BTW... the last update??? Removing mods. lol. Yeah, don't buy this. [b]Recommended[/b] I do [i]recommend[/i] [b]Dog and Goblin[/b] overall, but it's definitely worth noting how heavily it leans on RNG. You can play everything [u]perfectly[/u] and still lose if you never get the right cards—especially in the alternate modes or higher difficulties. That’s pretty frustrating, and I wish there was a more strategic way to mitigate those unlucky draws. When the game [u]does[/u] work in your favor, it's an absolute blast and well worth your time. The English translation leaves a lot to be desired. It’s functional, but there are enough awkward turns of phrase that it can pull you out of the experience if you’re picky about language. The devs really ought to tighten that up, because the rest of the game is brimming with spirit. I absolutely love how combos are introduced—you can chain some really neat effects—but I wish there were more ways to merge them in alternate modes without relying on sheer luck. It feels like every attempt to link combos depends on stumbling upon the [i]exact[/i] right tower placement, and that’s just another instance of the game’s RNG reliance. All that said, there’s a lot of heart here, and I’m excited to see what new cards and content pop up in future updates. If you’re looking for a unique twist on card-driven mechanics and don’t mind rolling the dice on a bit of randomness, I’d say [b]Dog and Goblin[/b] is [u]still[/u] a solid purchase—especially in the $5–$8 range.

我创意工坊呢？

The mechanics are simple and intuitive. The different unlockable game modes are varied in terms of fun but give some needed variety for a the game. The endless mode also provides a fun method of learning different card interactions and combinations. It can be challenging to get the cards that you want without utilizing a long setup process so adaptability is a must. You will have to use different methods to win just due to RNG of the cards that you get. If you want to win easily I recommend using the ballista whenever possible.

I seriously love this game. Uses the Luck be a Landlord-style slot machine roguelike formula, but adds a brand new mechanic that completely changes the way the game is played. https://youtu.be/KGYR00DXcR8

不是？你这吃货能把我机械狗吃了？什么垃圾东西？

Genuinely addicted, wife is not happy at me, but its so fun. May mod this eventually. PS: Lot of translation issues, Dev needs to go over it with someone who speaks English

It is so rare that I pursue a game for 100% achievements, but 'getting' Dog and Goblin has been so satisfying I am pretty proud of myself. Loved it - am sort of sad that I am done. If there is any DLC I will dive back in

Great entry into the just-one-more-run category!
