PRO TIPS
DECK BUILDING
1. Build decks in your card collection and play with your own creations. You are only permitted a maximum of 2 of each card in your deck. Find out how you can make your deck even better with new cards.
2. Each type of Gem (Fire, Water, Air, Earth and Spirit) has different advantages. Combine them with matching Turn Spells and Battle Spells for maximum points.
3. Balance: The relationship between Beast Cards and Spell Cards is crucial to your strategy. Experiment and find the right balance for your strategy.
STRATEGIES
1. BLOCKING: Block your opponents from forming combinations by using the blank edges on your Beast Cards. This prevents your opponents from making high-scoring Beast Card connections.
2. MANA POOLS: Mana Pools can be unlocked when they are placed smartly. But be careful – your opponent can also unlock them!
3. OPPONENT’S HAND: Become a true Book of Beasts master by analysing and taking into account the opponent’s cards in your own turn.

Not much to do in this game, unfortunately. You can play against the AI or, if you played on launch day, 5 other human players. It's basically a multiplayer puzzle game that's pretty polished, but alas... all there is to do is play against the same 4 AI over and over. I'll give them props for keeping it live this long without any players, though. Always unfortunate to see any game shutdown.5 found this helpful
As far as I can tell, the game doesn't work (without a controller?). It was unresponsive to mouse commands. Keyboard commands got me as far as the tutorial, where it told me to click and drag a card onto the table. Since it didn't respond to the mouse, and none of the keys I pressed had any effect, the tutorial was unplayable. I assume the rest of the game is unplayable too. If the tutorial doesn't work then I don't have any faith in them to get the rest of the game working either.2 found this helpful
Игра "Book of Beasts" — это отличная карточная игра, которая сочетает в себе интересный сеттинг бестиария и глубокую стратегическую составляющую. Коллекционирование существ превращается в захватывающее приключение, а каждое создание обладает уникальными способностями и синергиями. Бои требуют тактического мышления и умения адаптироваться к различным колодам противника. Особенно радует разнообразие монстров, от милых и забавных до грозных и пугающих. Иллюстрации карт выполнены на высоком уровне и добавляют игре атмосферности. Система развития и кастомизации существ предоставляет множество возможностей для создания уникальной колоды и реализации собственных стратегий. Несмотря на то, что игра может показаться сложной на первый взгляд, разобраться в механиках довольно просто, а обучение хорошо построено. Однако, для достижения успехов потребуется время и практика. В целом, "Book of Beasts" — это достойная внимания коллекционная карточная игра, которая увлечет любителей жанра на долгие часы. Рекомендую!
