I've played this on my mobile continuously for a couple of years now and it is by far the best mobile game I've played. I prefer this to Slay the Spire and find it more addictive than Balatro. The main criticism of this game is the story gets repetitive but there's so much replayability with so many combinations of decks you can approach this game with. The dialogue can be skipped quickly if you just want to play. DLCs also worth buying if you crave more cards/cantos/enemies. Thanks devs!

A really nice game with a lot to offer. Plenty of characters to choose from and every character has like 8 more variations. The only thing that needs improvement, is when you choose a specific build for your deck, the cards coming your way should be more focused on the build rather than generic cards from the class. That makes that experience a bit boring at times.

The game itself has enough depth in the deckbuilding and roguelike progress that I played it for more than a year. At the same time it has all the features to enable you to play it only for a couple of minutes at a time without any loss of comfort. But the absolute best thing (and I really love it for this) is the business model. You buy the game for a flat rate, the base game content has everything you need to have fun for a long time, and then it also offers expansions for a fixed price.
