Seer's Gambit

My thumbs down comes mainly from the game price. It isn’t a bad game, it just have 5 € fun in my humble opinion. The game basically a gambling idler. The player doesn’t have almost any meaningful tools in the runs. With the recent update you can select now your starting character, and your starting point on the map, if you’ve grinded long enough. Afterwards you travel based on the chosen node of the map. There are very limited travel types, and in every travel there are only few events in the mix. If you traveled even once of a the type, you’ve seen everything. Keep in mind, on the map there are many same type of travels, so even on your first run you’ll see the same content more than once. The battle has the same limited options. There are few battle maps in the pool during the travels. Each travel has a very limited selection of enemies, so again if you’ve played once, basically you saw most what the game can offer. During the battle you place your troops on limited spots, so that’s the strategy input from you. I played on 4x speed, but I was bored, because there are almost zero player agencies during the run. In theory it could’ve been fun to assemble various mix of heroes, but you’re extremely hindered by game design. The heroes come in 3 rarity, which limits the maximum level of the unit. So you have to hunt for the right kind of unit for your dream build in the epic version. I believe it’s extremely punishing to have 2 levels of RNG. You can re-roll the selection, but 30 gold isn’t cheap, and nothing guarantees that you’ll get better units. The „roguelike” part means that you have to come back and grind for eternity so you can buy minor upgrades. Game is super easy, but becomes really boring really fast.
