It's a fun game! It's challenging but not so difficult that it's impossible, and there's a really nice feeling when you discover the more powerful combinations of card upgrades.
Very good game, I'm having more fun than when I played Slay the Spire. The atmosphere is amazing, the combos are really cool. The mecanic of lacrima and the triggers is truly a new thing for me. I would recommend anyone to try a run or two and you will see that for the price it's a complete steal. I plan to play it a lot. PS: it looks to me like the balance is off however. I've found that some deck are just way stronger than other and some lacrima are not useable most games. I practice I end up just going for my sweet spot build with some variation. Still is challenging and having fun.

Эта игра заставит вас херачить по столу после очередного луз забега.
Ein sehr guter Deckbuilder. Es macht Spaß nach den richtigen Kombinationen zu suchen und mit den unzähligen Edelsteinen mit unterschiedlichen Fähigkeiten ist für Kurzweil gesorgt. Dachte am Anfang eigentlich nicht, dass mich das so fesseln wird, aber jetzt grübel ich immer nach um eine noch bessere Kombination zu finden.
I only just started but can tell I will put some time in with this game. I like how everything is not predefined and the approach is original out of many deck builders available.
可以一玩的游戏,有点不同的东西
Very deep gameplay, very polished, strongly recommend if you're looking for a crunchy/thinky deckbuilder.
少有的能玩的很爽的卡牌肉鸽。 缺点也很明显,泪珠的平衡太差了,大部分触发都不如友军攻击和敌袭。还有很多意义不明的生物卡,除了有锁定,血量伤害差一点外,其他几乎没有任何区别。 只能说底子很好,要是后续有更新就更好了
I was shocked and floored by the atmosphere of this game, I play a healthy amount of these card games and I never expect to be totally hypnotized by one when I sit down to check it out. The music SLAPS. The mechanics are interesting and fun to experiment with.
Be chill, and craft card combos and chain-reactions that are a lot of fun to watch. A diamond in the rough.
