Cardful Planning

So I picked this up after reading a review on "Buried Treasure" - it is an excellent little game where you manouevre a playing card around a maze. Very simple but a couple of ingenious little design implementations make what would seem quite a mundane puzzle into quite tricky head scratchers. Defintely worth the 5 squid they asking for

Enjoy your puzzle platformers, check out Cardful Planning! Feels like it's missing some culmination levels at the end but the dev's looking into adding those. In the meantime, there's already 50+ challenging levels and three game modes to get the most out of them. Cardful Planning is an exciting little puzzle platformer that features four key abilities, 50+ levels, and three game modes that really add to replayability. Challenging and cleverly designed For more niche curation, follow me at: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/27440015-CSH-Picone/

A fun puzzle game with a dash of metroidvania. It might not be the longest game ever made but it sure is fun. A speed run and least deaths mode also add to the replay value if you want to challenge yourself or others buy topping the leaderboards.

Okay action + puzzle game that devolved into a matter of trial and error pretty quickly. Only a couple levels stick to my memory. Even with some cool mechanics, puzzle design seems hampered by the need for avoiding constant threats. I think the levels could have been a lot better if the game was turn-based instead of real-time. Thankfully this is not very hard to complete due to generous respawns. Overall, recommended only if you really can't find anything else to scratch that itch for puzzles or dungeon crawling. Definitely not worth the full price. Steam really should incorporate a "meh" rating.

Quick Score: 3/5 Notes: Decent idea, but the level design is very lacking most of the time. The final boss seemed to be broken, not sure if its because i was playing on a high refresh rate. Can be 100% in about 45 minutes and doesn't really offer much replayability. There are speedrun and "low death" modes, but no achievements or rewards associated with them outside of leaderboard competition. IMO definitely overpriced at 7.99$. Would never recommend at full price. Overall though It was a generally fun little experience, but not great.
