Malkyrs

- Great Game - ... if you are one of the lucky persons, who own a malkyrs NFC card reader. It seems like the game isnt working with the current version of the game. If you are able to play the game is really a lot of fun and enjoyable for everyone who likes trading card games. The quality of every card is extremely good and all the artwork is really nice. I really hope the Malkyrs Studio finds a way to continue its work at the game. I would really appreciate this and I would like to buy more stuff from the game. I basically would recommend it (at the moment) , but only if you own a card reader!

The company that made this is going into liquidation, after taking funds from a Kickstarter that inevitably didn't result in anything except a lot of people losing their money. I would be very interested to know where all the money from the Kickstarter actually went. I am slightly salty as someone who paid a lot of money for a bunch of cards that don't work properly, and a bunch of extras like an art book and playmat that I will never get. I understand these things happen, but regardless I don't think this game should be your next venture if you're not into it already and/or have a bunch of the cards. This is more or less staying open for the few die-hard, loyal fans of the game who got into it during the early stages/beta. The NFC cards mechanic is a cool idea, until it doesn't work!

As great as this game is, I wish its target demographic wasn't so restrictive. And by restrictive, I mean that you need both a reader and cards to play the game. I Kickstarted the project, and I'm one of the lucky few who fit both the criteria. Not everyone got a reader as I did. The gameplay is seamless and intuitive. The writing not being on the cards kinda sucks, but you memorize what does what quickly in the story mode. Speaking of which, it's incomplete. The game is mostly unfinished in terms of single-player content. The studio for the game went bankrupt, and now the community is waiting for someone to pick up the pieces. That being said, if you have friends, cards and readers (the latter two you can probably buy from someone who doesn't want to play anymore, and i assume you can buy friends), it really is a damn good CCG. Such a shame.

Игра «Malkyrs» — необычный проект с атмосферной графикой и оригинальным сюжетом. Геймплей сочетает элементы экшена и головоломок, но механики местами запутаны. Звуковая дорожка и арт-стиль подчеркивают мрачную атмосферу, что погружает в мир игры. Однако нестабильная оптимизация и сложный интерфейс могут отпугнуть новичков. Для ценителей нестандартных решений — интересно, но требует терпения.

"Malkyrs" is unplayable because it's linked to an NFC card reader from a company that was liquidated. Why were they liquidated? Because they tried to make a game that depends on a specific physical hardware appliance and specific physical trading cards with NFC chips. What a terrible idea. No wonder they crashed and burned. Anyway because of all that, no matter how nice the art looks, this is a dead and unplayable game that's just polluting Steam. The graphics in this game are passable, but could be better. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 6 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mi…
