HeistGeist

Gameplay is totally boring. Story is classical Shadowrun-style, which is why I bought that game. Wold prefer to read the story without all that gameplay-like grindy suffering.

這是來自斯洛伐克小型團隊的精緻小品，本質上是劇情導向 RPG，只是將戰鬥系統以 deckbuilding 的方式呈現。整體風格是相當經典的 Cyberpunk “one last job” 劇本，頗有 Shadowrun 系列的味道，雖然劇情稱不上創新，但關卡期間節奏掌握得不錯，沉浸感佳，各組人馬分工分頭化險為夷的敘事手法很有意思，令人驚喜。 遊戲約 15–17 小時即可通關，線性劇情，重玩性低，不太適合嘗試多種 build，組合一旦成型，後期基本就是靠同樣的組合技，戰鬥略顯單調。 整體而言值得一試。如果你喜歡 cyberpunk 世界觀，又偏好慢節奏、卡牌式的戰鬥方式，可以支持這個獨立團隊喔。 補充：Steam Deck 可以順暢運行，但文字偏小，建議用電腦玩。

Hacen mucho con poco, buena historia, voces cojonudas, mecánicas cojonudas, en fin, si te gustan los juegos de construcción de mazos, dadle un try

Good indie cyberpunk game, though at the end fights have become quite repetitive.

[h1]Recommended on a discount[/h1] Finally a deckbuilder that isn't a roguelike. You have one deck throughout the entire story of the game. Your cards get XP by playing them and then become upgraded, and ALL copies of a card have that upgrade. I immediately saw potential to go (almost) infinite and someway through, I build a deck that actually did thanks to the upgrade system and some accessories that slim your deck, so I could beat every fight on the first turn. The fights are a bit "slow", since you have animation lock after every card you play and have to wait for some effects to finish and you deal 2-6 damage for most of your cards while facing 150 or more "total" HP of enemies. Wish you could speed that up or have some gear that gives you more damage. It became a bit tiresome towards the end, since my deck was already perfect and the battles dragged quite a bit, so thank god it doesn't overstay its welcome (too much). Personally, I didn't care much for the story. It lost me someway through the first third because it introduces too many characters I wasn't interested in and started skipping it here and there, so your run time might be a bit longer to finish it.

Really impressive narrative and style on-top of a card-based "RPG". Only real concerns are that it is pretty easy to build a good deck early, which makes combat pretty trivial (I did not die once during a complete play through and barely lost any health in the last 2/3) and hacking even easier. Also, it gets much more interesting when you have several team members and styles of play, but this comes very late. I can imagine HeistGeist II would be even better if it ever sees the light of day.

A solid game. Well-designed core systems, consistently nice art, and a pretty good story. There's some pretty substantial balance issues - after about the halfway point I had put together a deck strong enough that I won every single fight on my first turn, without even making any special effort to overtune it - but if you don't mind self-limiting (or enjoy combo puzzle type decks that play 50 cards a turn), then that shouldn't be an issue. I liked it!

This game was a huge surprise for me — now I can't get enough of it. Pros: – The card combat and combo mechanics are really entertaining. – The story has a nice pace, the characters are interesting, and the dialogue is well-written. It really gets to me when the storytelling goes deeper into the developing relationships between the crew members. – Cyberpunk and synthwave aesthetic. Cons: – The controls can feel a bit clunky. Every time I want to close a menu, I instinctively press ESC and get annoyed when it kicks me to the main menu instead. Minor gripe though.

[h1] Hodnocení 8/10 [/h1] HeistGeist je poutavou hrou, která cílí nejen na fanoušky karetního žánru, ale také na úplné začátečníky. K dokonalosti jí chybí jen propracovanější příběh, zapojení českého a slovenského dabingu a vyšší obtížnost. To by hru mohlo zviditelnit a představit široké škále hráčů, která o tento žánr nemá velký zájem. Více v recenzi: https://www.gamingprofessors.cz/heistgeist-recenze/
