What players say
Don't like it. Nothing new comparing to other games, but very slow progression. Getting new cards is not so exciting cause they're not better - just different. Level ups for hero taking too much time. So you need to grind a lot and spend a lot of tries getting some specific deck for specific level and also to get enough luck in the fight.

Something about this game doesn't sit right with me. Parts of it seem random, as if I have little control over anything. Maybe my first impression is wrong, but I don't want to waste any more time on this game.
This game is great! I simply adore the art style, it's fun and dynamic, each card is truly unique, you can easily tell if it's an attack card or a master card, without having to double check the description. The story has an interesting spin, taking the well-known fairy tale characters and putting them in a completely new context. In terms of gameplay I appreciate that the progression is challenging enough, to not...
