Eh again, I wish there was a 'neutral' review option.
Nothing about this game is egregiously bad or tedious to play but for me, it did not hook me strong enough for me to finish the game out.

The deck building, world building and folklore are the games strongest features and if you're even remotely interested in the topic, you will really enjoy your experience. I could not have cared less but still found myself reading all the notes, and pieces of folklore dropped in here and there.

I've just finished a very long section of the game (~4 or 5 hours) and found myself losing patience towards the end. Imagine my shock when I see that I've only finished chapter 1 and broke one seal...
I have 6 more seals to break.

idk man, the game isn't bad but it does nothing for me to want to keep playing to finish. It feels wrong giving this game a negative review because it is a clear labour of love and, for the right person, may be the perfect game. The only battles that were fun and engaging were the boss battles however, those are too few and far between it seems. The game loves littering your path with weak mob-like enemies who you can burst down with your eyes closed. It just gets a bit boring.


For me, I'd just much rather play slay the spire.

Not a positive review; not a negative review. Just a review.
