None Shall Intrude

A game where you play as a dragon boss and fight off the heroes. The game features stylish combat, interesting elemental combinations, and many build options, but it has bugs and not enough content.

The "yes" recommendation for this is a "yes, if" recommendation None Shall Intrude is good fun and it was an interesting take on deckbuilders with a cool theme - you're playing as a dragon and taking over the kingdom while your lair is raided by bosses. There's five different dragons that you unlock that play differently and it felt pretty good to figure out the synergies that each dragon had with terrain and element interactions. The game is however very unbalanced, which may or may not be a problem for you depending on how you like your card games, and there's some serious jank to the game that's mostly UI or graphics related but I did also have the game eat a save once which wasn't fantastic. There's a recent enough update for the game so I hope the game continues to get some attention in areas where the game feels a bit unpolished. Would recommend if you like deckbuilders that you can very easily make silly builds with and the armament system does let you bulk up the challenge (although I'd argue some of these options felt less "challenge" and more "deliberately unfair"). If you're looking for something in the genre with extremeely deep complexity, or prefer to focus just o…

Seriously no idea why this game was review bombed. If you like being a big bad dragon raid boss in a roguelike game, facing dozens of enemies before turning them to ashes, this is definitely very fun. Yes there'll be a bit of grinding and repetitiveness, but that comes with the genre, and this game provides pretty good ways to get around that, such as able to choose different dragons, etc. The terrain mechanic is pretty cool too. It might seem trivial or a bother at first, but once you start to master it, which admittedly will still take a while, it's fun, and sometimes needed against certain enemies that makes you learn it. The only nitpick I have is some abilities can be a bit too strong (Fireball to all enemies every turn is crazy strong), the game often became so much easier after the first one, and the talent tree feels a bit weird...? It doesn't feel synergic or rewarding. Game balance overall can be better, even if you're supposedly this raid boss that's hard to take down. Overall a pretty fun game, even addicting at times to the point you just want to do one more fight. Hopefully more updates will make it even better!

This is quite an interesting game. While I don't normally like deck-building games, this one is an exception. For starters, yes, you play as a DRAGON! That's always a huge plus for me, and the main reason why I bought the game in the first place. Two, I enjoy watching powerful combinations to unfold on enemies (Fireball attack everyone at the start of each turn is simply wonderful). And third, I really enjoy the music. I got to say, seeing the cinematic of one particular act boss actually gripped my heart, and I literally forgot about everything except for one single thing - that bastard must die! I played a couple of runs, and for now thoroughly enjoy the game, but there are a couple of things I didn't like: 1) There is another Dragon which the game suggest you attack, but it's simply unthinkable for me. 2) While I was too scared to even try it, I don't like the existence of Whelps as you seemingly use your own children to attack enemies and possibly die. PS: I would really love to buy the soundtrack of the game to listen to it!

Cool concept, but they got lazy and never finished it. It's basically early access with no hope of ever being polished up and finished. Honestly, just don't grab it, even on sale.
