Not recommended Feb 1, 2026
They removed the ability to create your own deck which is a part of the gathering of power dlc. Without the ability to make your own deck, the harder campaign battles become luck based as you hope for the cards you want. Can't understand why on Earth you'd want to do this. Apart from that it's the same Spectromancer as before which is an excellent card game without collection. But why they'd remove the most important is beyond me. It makes a 10/10 game into a 4/10.

This game is so good that the day the 3rd expansion was released I forgot I had tickets to see Jeremy Hardy live at the Brewhouse theatre

Richy G doesn't miss. Spectromancer is an incredibly fun game. I had hundreds of hours in this before getting it on Steam. What a smart and interesting system.
