I love Real-turn combat

Holy mother of everything that's good in the gaming industry, this game is incredibile. Deckbuilding + action combat + roguelike, I'll review them in order. Debkbuilding: every card has a cost and a color, colors give resources and those resorces are used by the cards to buff their effects. This premise alone adds a lot of repliability to the game, it gives a concrete incentive to experiment past obtimizing your run by pickinn the samme combo every single time.

Fun take on the deckbulding and card battle -genre. The only downside is that the game is a bit short and there isn't much to see after the first few runs. While the variety in cards is huge ultimately the builds you aim for are more or less the same.

good hybrid deckbuilder-action roguelite. but short. +great hybrid game systems +excellent deckbuilding with card customization and synergies. +game inspirations -scary aesthetic -difficulty varies a lot and depends pausing.

Great card options and combos, with good depth! Great music and art, took me about 10 hours to complete.
