Good 20 minute game. There are so many variations that it doesn't get boring and has a good level of strategy.

Excellent fast pace deckbuilder There are so many different mechanics to mix and match and you can set each game to have exactly the amount of complexity you desire. You will discover new combos for the rest of your life, and the way the game is designed allows for very intricate ordering to execute huge synergies and plays. The online has the added benefit of coding all card effects in perfectly so there will be no fights over rules interpretation. The only issue with this game is that they neglect to allow players to customize the honor pool size in a private game.

Still one of the best deckbuilders after many years. Has a very nice power ramp arc and a good sense of flow. The combos you can set up are satisfying and the digital version lets you run through games really quickly.

this game absolutely claps. so much fun, everyone starts w the same cards and you can pick what expansions you want to play and there is heaps of games to join for online fun. my only tilts me w this game is the star pool. if you havnt played this game, when you play online there are 60 stars in a 1v1, and as you play and defeat monsters you get stars, when you run out of stars the game ends. but i find that if you are playing w a friend or online, you get to a point where your cards are starting to work together, you can do way more on your turns and it gets more fun. only for the stars to run out and the game ends. i feel like the games are much more fun when going for longer and actually building up a decent deck. you can adjust it offline, why not online? pre dumb the only way around it is to make an account on your phone as its free on IOS, join the game as a 3 player or 4player, then just forfeit on turn 1 with the extras and then you have a 2p game with 90 or 120 stars instead of only 60. only annoying thing is, the steam version you get 9 free expansions and on mobile you get only 2 or 3 w base game as its free compared to the paid steam version. so you cant use this method if you want to play the expansions, unless you buy it again on your device. im a bit lucky as my girlfriend doesnt play as much as me so i can use her account to increase the star pool and play longer with my friends (sorry for all the forfeits babe!) if you login on your phone/tablet it carries all your dlc over which is great. i play way more on my tablet in bed rather than at my PC. some people complain about the UI but meh, it does its job, its not buggy, it plays well and is great fun. i have not played against the CPU yet but my mates said its fun and my girlfriend plays on her tablet and says its good also. overall this is a 9/10. just buy it. i got it for $3 AUD.... $3.... after playing for 30 mins i bought all the dlc for $9. worth every penny devs pls let us increase stars, c.engine doesnt work XD

Excellent port of the physical game, with a unique art style, great content variety, decent AI, and core gameplay that'll get anyone hooked. The only problem is that players cannot edit the number of Honor Points (stars) when playing multiplayer, which severely limits the length/fun/replayability of MP.
