Toads of the Bayou

Its competent. I would buy it again a the price i bought it (like 30% off). I do not like the setting - the gameplay is carrying it. Overall if You like turnbased strategy deckbuilders and roguelikes You will like this ones gameplay. Minuses - Tavern Ui is not realy that great. It could be clearer with the tile beeing attacked or not.

Then you look at the score of 'only' mostly positive and think to yourself 'where did it go wrong'? Well, a big one is that deckbuilding is extremely limited. After every battle you only get to BUY one card (with upgrades it's 3) and you will be seeing the same cards offered over and over again. This is because the card pool per hero is tiny and barely supports 2 different decks. This makes combat extremely repetitive, even when new enemy types are introduced dealing with them is mostly the same turn by turn, battle after battle. I don't see a need in ever repeating a run with the same hero as there are no alternative decks to explore. In addition every combat always boils down to: kill 8 enemies and protect objectives. Every boss battle feels exactly the same. All of it feeding into the repetitive cycle. The position aspect of combat reminds of Fights in Tight Places as you evade enemy attacks and protect objectives, but it's implemented in a very rudimentary form (e.g. you can't push enemies of the ledge) and it's fairly easy to dodge damage. The balance is heavily in player's favor with the second hero being absolutely busted to the point I turn 1 killed most bosses and killed every enemy on spawn. I will say, that the 3rd hero's style is quite unique and I will give the devs a point for that. A point I will deduct because the true boss has a passive that can just kill you if you are not ready for it despite having a dominating run (be ready to deal with unavoidable fire/poison). I can go on about the negatives, such as imperfect UI, long runs, not being able to upgrade cards, despite upgraded cards existing, etc. So why is this not a negative recommendation? In the end, I think the Toads of the Bayou had some good ideas and I did have some fun stomping enemies on my dedicated path to defeat the final boss. Yes, the game had no deckbuiling options but the deck that it had wasn't boring to pilot, at least not the first time. It feels the game had the right idea, but closed up development before it could be refined into some great. Currently, I can only recommend it to the curious and to those that don't care much about replayability after the the first few runs. [h1][b]The positive[/b] [/h1] + Nice music and visuals + Some good ideas. [h1][b]The neutral[/b][/h1] * Gold for upgrades is difficult to come by and later it's almost useless. [h1][b]The negative[/b][/h1] - Limited deckbuilding that only supports 1 or 2 deck types per hero. - Gets repetitive very quickly [h1][b]Conclusion:[/b] [/h1] Some potential, but ultimately a flawed game with very limited deckbuilding options, no replayability and a lot of repetitiveness. Can still be fun to play through it once, but not a game for everyone. Mixed recommendation.

Abandoned years ago. Do not waste your money. Many bugs and unbalanced beyond belief.

picked it up on sale and for that it was Toadally awesome!

Fun little game with good soundtrack and great card art. Just the type of thing to play on a long train ride. The game does break pretty quickly if you cheese the re-roll and deck pruning mechanics. I'd love to see the devs limit the re-rolls to once per between missions and also to establish a minimum deck size. Now it's way too easy to remove the RNG element entirely and just deal certified infinite damage.

Challenging, fun, cute, engaging. Highly suggest, and i'm excited to play it a bunch more!

El estilo artístico es increíble, la música agradable y las mecánicas prometedoras. Lo que parecía un juego perfecto para los fans de las ranas, entre los que me encuentro, y el pixel art, ha terminado siendo un proyecto abandonado por sus creadores -sin actualizar el juego desde diciembre de 2024- plagado de errores críticos que dificultan seriamente poder disfrutar de la experiencia. Pese a lo atractiva y original de la propuesta, considera invertir tu dinero en otra parte. En cuanto a la reseña, no la cambiaré mientras no vea enmiendas.
