Void Tyrant

good

it's basically just a mobile game, except on steam, probably with some unlocks that would normally require microtransactions on mobile

Its a great mobile game to play on the commute, but the PC version just feels like a "oh well lets just put it on steam to get some extra money". Problem is that the mechanics are very random and its quite shallow mechanics and fall flat on the PC market. If you have not played it, I would wait for 75% off or something like that

True hakari game

Extremely grindy and repetitive. The first 5 hours I've played this (basically my first winning run and the subsequent journey through endless) were pretty fun. Since then, the game has only been mildly entertaining, as you keep going through samey fights using the same basic strategies, and the game simply doesn't have enough depth to surprise you or make you think. I've yet to unlock many things, but since meta-progression only comes in the form of stat increases and other things that generally make you stronger, but nothing actually game-changing (you do unlock a couple cards here and there, but it's really anecdotical), I really don't feel like playing for... I'm guessing at least 100 more hours to complete the achievements ? Anything can happen in the first half of a run, as RNG can put you in very awkward situations, but after you've found a few things that help make high rolls more consistent, the most likely scenario is you're gonna win easily, and eventually die to a stupid mistake after several hours of fighting the same few enemies and hearing the same one song in endless mode (which does get increasingly difficult, but very, very slowly). Not much to see, not much to do. I do find the concept pretty fun, but honestly, if you just watch a 10-minute gameplay video, you've pretty much seen it all. It might have been great in more ambitious hands, but I really can't recommend it.

yeah
