Unders_core

Pretty sure +80% of the first ~12 reviews were paid for, bots, or dev friends, which doesn't sit well with me. That said, the game is alright. Has some nice ambiance, but lacking in meat when compared to similar, prolific games. If there were more content and customization, this would be an easy recommend. As-is, it's more of a 5/10 StS sci-fi trip. There are some neat ideas and props for trying some new things (ex. The 3 energy types, the deck queue) but all in all it's just kind of middling. There isn't much deck variation, the compendium is lacking, the path 'choices' are rather linear, there are questionable balance issues, there's only one 'character' to select, there are no increased difficulty settings or challenges to make one want to play another run. For an indie game, I think it's a pretty neat project design-wise and it still kept me busy for several hours. So I suppose that's worth $10. Pretty on the fence about this one. Might check back to see if there are any content updates, etc.

Really engaging! Did not expect much, but the mechanics are really fun and original! I tried making a power-based deck and it carried me through the first chapter, but the boss decimated me Enjoy the build variety - many ways to play just like slay the spire

Kinda meh game overall, 5/10 at best. Has some nice atmosphere and ambiance. Interesting design of the cards and 'mana' you use to play them. Feels sort of bare-bones atm, enemies to unbalanced, plus the mana you use to play cards feels way too restricted. The whole game honestly feels too restricted. Wouldn't recommend the game in it's current state.

Played three runs, enjoyed every minute of the game. Fun, original, atmospheric. Really like the sci-fi setting because the medieval fantasy is in almost every deckbuilding game now. Having predictable cards queue makes the game more puzzle-like. As if it is more “roguelike puzzle”. Not so many other games like this. Not as polished as slay the spire, but definitely a step forward for the genre. If you like atmospheric storytelling without spoonfeeding you all the details, you’ll like this game

Карточный рогалик в стиле исследования чужой планеты с довольно специфичной рисовкой. Нестандартна также местная механика карточных боев - у вас есть аж 3 ресурса, но при этом карты из колоды в руку поступают по одной. В зависимости от используемого ресурса карты дают разные эффекты. Также можно просто отправить колоду в сброс, но на это действие есть ограничение. Само по себе оно не плохо, но из-за подобного варианта встают и вопросы баланса. К примеру первая же встреченная мной элита представляла собой 3 моба с 18-22 хп каждый и регенерацией здоровья примерно равной собственному здоровью. При таком раскладе бой превращается в увеличение собственного урона (базовый урон карт атаки на момент старта боя не превышает 6, увеличить за ход можно на 1) до той степени, чтобы можно было убить противника за ход. И соответственно исход боя будет в очень значительной степени зависеть от очередности карт и возможности сочетать бафф и защиту. Кроме того, как и в случае многих других небольших проектов, игра не обновлялась с 9 октября 2022 года и может остаться в текущем состоянии навсегда. На данный момент не рекомендую.

Immensely fun experience. Big fan of Slay the Spire, glad to see devs experiment and improve the formula. Oh and the sci-fi setting is a nice addition.

What a nice fresh game! Really liked this game, definetely a new expericence - I have never seen such mechanics before. A new step in deckbuilder roguelikes!

Abandoned game. I thought this game was very cool and interesting and wanted to see more of it. But, more never came.

Fresh new approach to deckbuilding games! Challenging but fun, really like unexpected synergies between battle and exploration cards

Fun times!
