This is such a great steam deck game to play casually while watching TV or something, horribly addictive too.
It’s crazy good on mobile as well. Given that you have to create an unofficial port to play it on mobile it’s not strictly speaking well optimized - it drains your battery like mad - but it’s the best thing I’ve played on my phone since Slay the Spire.
I tried it and refunded it. It did not work for my brain. I’m glad they’re seeing such success and it’s clearly a terrific idea, but man, it just made me feel bad.
Bad? In what sense?
I couldn’t ever make the engine work. It just never clicked for me. So everyone talks about how exciting big numbers could be, but I never got big numbers. I just keep struggling and dying over and over again.
Ah ok, yeah you need to have some luck at the start. Once you unlock more decks it gets easier. And every once in a while it just clicks and numbers go up!
Pretty beefy patch notes! I’m happy it’s being supported with such gusto!
Props to nerfing fibbinochi, because it really is better this way.
Higher difficulty stakes are more interesting now as you keep the same hand size
