Magic of Autumn

It's a shame such a wonderful game goes unnoticed. It's a little adventure game about conjuring everything you find on your way and creating cards from it. You'll face enemies with a lot of different strategies and you'll have to adapt your deck accordingly. The graphics may look simple, but they work really well all together. And the music. Oh, the music. Simple, same as the graphics, but astoundingly charming. If the developer releases the soundtrack as an extra, I'll buy it, no hesitation. Give it a try if you like deckbuilding and collecting cards. What the hell, give it a try even if you don't, it's really worth it. P.S.: If you go for all the achievements, you're gonna have to investigate and experiment a lot! And keep your eyes open!

This game is one of those undervalued hidden gems that most people could just not notice among the piles of crap being shoveled into Steam lately. Trust me, this guy Zuurix is a real deal. Check out his website at https://zuurix.com/ - try his other games, they are all much deeper than they seem, much more polished than it could appear from first glance, and most of all, they are pretty well designed and original. Keep doing what you're doing, and I am sure one of your games will become a megahit some day. I wish you that! For all those who are reading this, if you haven't bought it yet, what are you waiting for? Music alone in this game is worth more than the price.

It has take me a shamefully long time to review it. I freely admit that I haven't played the game long enough to fully critique the gameplay systems, I know that what I've played, I've enjoyed. I figure if you want an in depth breakdown of the story or gameplay, that's what the other reviews are for. THIS is more of a review of humanity. Okay, that's a bit grandiose. It's a story... there, that's more accurate. Magic of Autumn was recommended to me by great algorithmic son of Our Lord, GabeN(Steam), and it looked fantastic except for one little detail: my physical disability rendered it impossible for me to play. So, since bothering developers is my favorite thing, I did just that. Imagine my surprise when the dev not only replied to my request for a way to move the character with the mouse... but almost immediately implemented it as an option. It's hard to articulate what that means to anyone who is physically typical, but it means a lot. The developer had little future incentive to make those changes, as the disabled gamer population isn't huge, and the folks who need that specific modification is even lower. So, if you're even remotely interested in this game, give it a try and tell your friends. Chances are that if there's something you don't like, you can annoy the dev, too!:p

This game has its high points and low points, it's a good value for the cost but not everyone will enjoy it. The card battling is interesting, you don't get to re-use cards so you have to carefully build your deck and choose how you play. I found it very thought provoking and a fun challenge, but you cannot expect a traditional deck shuffler here. The atmosphere is very nice, I liked the art style and the story snippets contributed nicely to the feel of the world. The system of learning spells (cards) by interacting with things made the world feel alive, although it was frustrating to figure out I had missed something and have to go back and find it. Also some stuff moved around frustratingly out of reach, it took me about 10 minutes of patrolling a corner waiting for one thing to pass close enough. The map desperately needs a "You are here" marker, especially given how unlocking runes reveals the map - when you have to skip hard nodes and leave them for later it can be very difficult to figure out where you are. The fight and card balancing isn't perfect. Sometimes for a given fight there's a trick to figure out which is a lot of fun, but sometimes it felt like I was just mashing restart until the enemy got a very bad draw AND I got a very good draw. This was especially true in the "Darkness and decay" level, about 25% of the time the opponent would kill me with an unstoppable one-turn combo on turn 1 or 2. Playing through just the story skipping optional fights would only take a few hours. The majority of my play time was spent struggling through the harder optional fights and eventually figuring them out - but for the most part I really enjoyed that process. Overall the game has some real high points and some real flaws. If you're looking for a tightly balanced traditional deckbuilder with high replay value, this is not it. But if you want something unique with nice atmosphere and solid mechanics and you can forgive some flaws, this game is quite nice especially for the asking price.

Dreamy, atmospheric.

easy but tricky relaxing card game, i had to replay several times vs 1 rune to get a good starter deck lol. don't rush playing this thing since it will be over too soon

An absolute steal for the price. Some tips: - This is a puzzle game first and foremost; rebuild your deck for each fight. Backspace empties your deck. - The lava-coloured runes are optional for achievements; you don't need them to progress. If you're stuck on one you may not need to actually fight it.

Pretty cool concept for the theme and certainly worth the price, if a bit rough around the edges. I get the feeling that maybe dev wanted to build the game more initially, but ended up sticking to this. Puzzle deckbuilder where you can have anywhere between 0-20 cards in the deck. You unlock these cards by "conjuring" aka interacting with literally any object in the game, so you'll have to pay attention to anything new in the environment. Opponents use these same cards but can have multiple copies while you get one of each. This turns the game into adjusting the deck to counter whatever the opponent has cooked up. + Exploring and finding new cards feels rewarding + Dirt cheap + OST fits the theme + Has some world building which ain't too bad * Has some story bits but there's no "real" outcome to it * Graphics are a bit rough but not too bad - While the enemies "stage name" can give a clue to their gimmick, you'll have to play against them first to figure out what each particular one has going on - Balance is a bit questionable at times, particularly towards the end there are opponents that feel like you need a perfect start against and/or some luck in order to defeat them. I was missing a couple conjurations but I think I still would have struggled none the less. Restarting is quick but still felt unnecessarily punishing - Map gets the job done but is a bit rough I was pretty happy with it for the most part, though balance issues kept it from being a great experience, instead of a good one.
