Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
About
Sums Steam only; GOG, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

Very good game . This games seems to have gone under the radar slightly with only 1599 positive reviews after being out for 4 years . To me this game is up there with the best of the genre and again I am surprised at the lower number of reviews , as to me this game is a very very good game . Had me instantly hooked and the game mechanics work really really well .
would be a good game except 1 terrible flaw. the game will spam you with attack cards when you need to move and with move cards when you need to attack. Basically if the rng is bad you cant play the game. It would be smart to have move cards independent of attack cards. This way you can always move and always attack. As is the game is an ok tactical card battler, great art, etc but with a flawed game system that makes it a lot less fun than it could be.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 21: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Trials of Fire is extremely tabletop-ish and pretty old school, yet it manages to deliver a very rich rpg & tactical experience that keeps you engaged at all times.
Had a break from playing for a few months, came back to it and it would no longer play but after switching to proton experimental and verifying the files it now works perfect for steamdeck.
Great game, very addictive! Word of advice Spend a few hours on easy mode a few=(10-20)
📝 English review below / Reseña en inglés más abajo ⸻ 🔶 Buenas ideas de tablero atrapadas en una presentación demasiado pobre ⸻ 📝 RESEÑA EN ESPAÑOL Trials of Fire me dejó sensaciones muy mixtas. Por un lado, se nota que hay una buena base: parece un juego de tablero bien pensado, con opciones interesantes de cartas, combates tácticos y decisiones que, sobre el papel, podrían dar para algo más profundo. La estructura está ahí y no es mala. El problema es todo lo que lo rodea. Visualmente es simplón, cutre, con efectos que parecen de cartón y personajes que no son más que fichas sobre un tablero. No hay impacto, no hay identidad, no hay nada que te haga sentir que estás viviendo una aventura. Todo se siente barato, seco y sin alma. Y ojo, no es que pida gráficos de última generación, pero hay un mínimo de presentación que ayuda muchísimo a engancharte. Acá no pasa. En ningún momento sentí ganas de seguir jugando solo por lo que estaba viendo o experimentando. Sinceramente, no vale la pena salvo que tengas una PC con la potencia de una Sega Génesis y no tengas absolutamente nada más para jugar. Dentro del género hay opciones muchísimo mejores, más inspiradas y con más personalidad. Probablemente sea uno de los más baratos… y se nota. ⸻ ✅ Puntos positivos: • Buena base tipo juego de tablero. • Sistema de cartas con decisiones interesantes. • Combates que podrían haber dado para más. ❌ Puntos negativos: • Presentación visual muy pobre. • Personajes sin carisma ni identidad. • Sensación constante de juego barato. • No engancha ni motiva a seguir. • Totalmente superado por otros del género. ⸻ 🎯 Conclusión: Trials of Fire tiene ideas correctas, pero está envuelto en una estética y ejecución tan pobre que termina matando cualquier posible interés. En un género tan competitivo, no alcanza con “cumplir”. 🔸 PUNTUACIÓN FINAL: 3/10 Barato en precio, barato en sensaciones. ⸻ 📝 REVIEW IN ENGLISH 🔶 Good board game ideas trapped behind a cheap presentation ⸻ Trials of Fire left me with very mixed feelings. On one hand, it has a solid foundation. It feels like a well-thought-out board game with interesting card mechanics, tactical combat, and decision-making that could have led to something deeper. But everything around that core falls apart. Visually, the game looks cheap and lifeless. Cardboard-like effects, characters that feel like simple tokens on a board, and zero sense of adventure or immersion. Nothing pops, nothing draws you in. I’m not asking for cutting-edge graphics, but presentation matters — especially in a genre this crowded. Here, it just doesn’t work. I never felt motivated to keep playing based on what I was seeing or experiencing. Honestly, it’s not worth your time unless you’re running a PC with the power of a Sega Genesis and have nothing else to play. There are far better games in this genre that offer more personality, polish, and engagement. It’s probably one of the cheapest options… and it shows. ⸻ 🎯 Final Verdict: Trials of Fire has decent ideas, but its bland visuals and cheap execution completely undermine them. In such a competitive genre, “good enough” simply isn’t enough. 🔸 FINAL SCORE: 3/10 Cheap price, cheap experience.
能玩的水平吧，喜欢卡牌类的可以试试看，但不耐玩，本质是一个类似爬塔的卡牌肉鸽，加入了格子的要素，变成战棋打牌，更像是GH吧。但是玩起来很不爽，一方面是角色的卡都太弱了，升级后的卡牌基本上就等于伤害+2的效果，烂，没法起到爬塔一样的质变。另一方面，boss直接数值碾压玩家角色，玩家角色换上新装备、升级都基本等于没啥强化，高难度下很难打过boss。还有就是战斗中，玩家需要丢牌来产费，导致本来每轮能打的牌就不多，还得丢牌，很难形成配合，就连简单的先易伤再输出的配合也很难打出。然后就是地图了，游戏的地图看似开放，实际上还是路过随机事件\战斗，然后最后过主线boss，这种地图还不如固定地图呢。最后，游戏的UI和文本翻译等方面还是比较粗糙的。
Just an absurd learning to try and get started and absolutely no retries on anything. It makes difficult to get better because you don't know if you're losing due to strategy, build or RNG. I was trying to get my footing cause there's some good ideas here but then in the second lore quest, you can just run into the unbeatable end boss (unless you find the mcguffin first). Then you just lose and have to start over. And that's fine if there was any indication at all that was the end boss. Not worth the headache.
The hero's initial position takes up too many cards to be changed. 7/10 point.
