What players say

Can you guys implement a feature where all the characters stfu and I don't have to listen to all this awful dialogue? hire a writer, every sentence is worthless and pointless. The gameplay is pretty good.

Something just doesnt seem right about this game, its sort of fun, but its missing something, not sure what though. Its like a boardgame that someone created that was ok in group settings but solo its just sort of boring.

Man this game rules! I wish I'd bought it years ago when i first saw it. Finally pulled the trigger and man, it is simply a wonderful deck builder.
