The WhatsNext verdict

For Players who enjoy strategic card combat wrapped in bleak folklore and a revenge quest.: Build a hand from defeated foes, then use it to fight through encounters across a dark, myth-inspired world. Tradeoff: The card-battling structure makes combat a strategic puzzle rather than direct, real-time action.

The setup

What you are walking into

An unusual, strategic RPG card game from the makers of Shadowhand and Regency Solitaire. "Awakening from centuries of slumber, a fallen mage returns to battle twisted folkloric foe across sprawling, ghostly landscapes. His ultimate destination: the nameless antagonist, a dread nemesis waiting patiently in the dark fastness of monstrous citadel, his Ancient Enemy. You'll embark upon a quest inspired by British mythology and Mabinogion, so expect card battling, visceral fights, mixed with bleak and evocative folklore! Loot the fallen to fill your hero's RPG-style inventory with collectible cards, capture strongholds and gather talented henchmen. Only powerful magic and iron determination will enable revenge upon your ultimate foe."
