Clash of Decks

The game could have been fun, but not starting players with a balanced deck was a mistake. I chose cards poorly at the beginning, and now I seem stuck playing the same losing deck. When the game crashes during a match, you lose a heart and have to wait an hour to try again.

The game is pretty fun, especially after realizing how I refresh on the ability mechanics by clicking on them. The app doesn't handle being in the background well, and you immediately lose the game if you switch on my phone at least.

This is a really fun game! The graphics are fun, the mechanics are interesting, and the general game is quite easy to get in to. Unfortunately there just aren't enough players yet so wait times are often longer than matches. Besides this, I really enjoyed playing

The gameplay itself is interesting, matches are fast. The game is a little unpolished at the moment. The iconography isn't very clear and there's not much in the way of hover text in-game. It's also a little bit confusing trying to figure out how well the match is going and who's winning. I really want this game to succeed though, and I hope the developers focus on bug-fixing and quality of life in the short-term before moving on to new features etc.

I would say that the game needs improvement to attract more players. Card drafting without any knowledge of the game in the beginning can really hurt a player chance of sticking with this game. The game was fun after working out how to play, it would help more to have a better tutorial to understand the game before drafting the card. I still don't know what the blue bar is underneath each card and what they do still? look forward to future update.

As a game, it has a fairly unique gameplay. as an app, however, I would say it has potential. A rough start on Google store didn't to it any favours and several victories counted as defeats for the purposes of health/deck durability. The intro to the game forces you to make significant choices without giving you and understanding of what the effects are yet. Definitely requires work, but I look forward to seeing how the app progresses.

The game is fun but a little confusing to understand at first. I have noticed a bunch of glitches too but it's just come out so some bugs are to be expected. A little more clarity about the rules, what the progress path means and fixing something if the stability issues and this game is totally worth a 5-star. I'm hoping to come back and modify this review for that soon.

Overall, I'm not impressed. Very basic card game, mechanics are relatively weak. The UI seems to be quite janky, misplacing incantations. Cards seem oddly balanced for the price they cost in game, and whoever gets the big guy thats 5/5 down earliest seems to win the game. I've played worse, but I've also played much, much better. Plus, limiting the amount you can play in this sort of game is plain stupid. A bad run of 3 losses, means you're locked out for an hour. Silly mechanic.

It's a fun card game (4 stars), but I am not able to authenticate. Therefore I am not able to even get to the menu. Probably an early bug. Will update rating when fixed. Update 1: Bug is fixed and game is playable. Seems fun. A bit easy to misplay, but that's just a skill issue. Update 2: Game crashes sometimes, with you not being able to reconnect (results in a loss). This is annoying since it eats a life. I also don't get the cards unlocked from the progress track.

The portrait mode takes quite some time to get used to. After all, we have already spent years with landscape mode on Board Game Arena, though i understand this may be how we actually view the physical game in real life. If there is a choice, landscape mode may be much appreciated. Also, real-time games take too much time to get going, as the user base is still small. Some kind of asynchronous mode, eg 1 move per day, is probably more appropriate. Some kind of battle log will be useful too.

I wrote a pretty in-depth review of this before I realized that Google has a 500 character limit on reviews. If the developer would like my full thoughts, just let me know! But in a nutshell: I think this game is really fun, but it's held back by a poor app. My main gripes are: stability of the app (it crashes far too often), poor onboarding for new players (the learning curve is steep), layout of the battlefield (I prefer horizontal play), and the 1 minute timer (To short for new players).

So yeah, the game is unique and good enough i bought physical copies... but the app makes it far from perfect. The biggest issue is that games keep cutting out and i dont know why. Second are not enough players. Finally, there are powerful cards (skewerer) that are just insurmountable with cards available at the start.

Really fun game. I did have an issue with an in app purchase, but I contacted them, they responded quickly, and it should be fixed soon. The main downside, the wait time to find an opponent may take a while, but hopefully that'll improve as more people play this game. I will say, developer response was exceptional and I'm optimistic this game will be much better once they have more players.

Played one game at first I didn't know what the heck I was doing but after a turn or two it's really simple and pretty straightforward , I wish when you would tap the cards it would remind you what's attack what's HP and a little bit more detail the game's okay, fun, definitely need lots of improvement but as a fun straightforward deck builder, it's cool. Would like to receive the physical pack and standalone.

While I somewhat enjoy the game, the intro tutorial could use being a bit more comprehensive - I've never played the physical version and was a bit lost for a while. It also seems to have a couple of balance issues - if I see my opponent has one of a couple specific cards, for example, I know I'm going to lose no matter what strategy or deck build I have. A few things that it seems maybe didn't make the jump to an app smoothly; e.g. can search cards by name . . . names shown nowhere.

Game gets better over time as you begin to understand how things work, but wait times are way too long. Paired with the fact that you only have 3 games to lose before you have to wait, it can be challenging to play at times, as I've had over 7 minute wait times several times. I think an option to play against the computer on different difficulties would be nice, for the times when we can't find anyone and/or are out of lives. I also wish there was a publi list of cards to see what other cards do

The implementation of the game itself is great. It runs smoothly. However, the problem is the matchmaking. It takes far too long only to result in very poorly balanced players, and sometimes crashes while searching. In addition, right before any game starts, the screen goes black and I have to turn it on and off again. Possibly having a lot more players will fix the main issues of what can be a fun quick game.
