What players say

I have now played this game every night for the last few and while I do enjoy what there is to offer, I cannot recommend the investment because of the feeling that the RNG is completely unfair to the player. I have tried a multitude of combinations and characters and cannot get over the hump of the unfair nature of the game itself.

As much as I want to recommend this game I cannot. The RNG is completely unfair on you, you are either stunned, poisoned, on fire or have ever changing cards. Getting to the end is complete luck. I just got the final boss, I had 3 revives, I lost everyone because he had 5 rotations, one being adding 7 extra cards, I could not clear the cards quick enough before he was adding more. Complete bull.
The Taken QueenNot recommendedafter 8.8hJun 2026Read on Steam
Solitaireee addict's vibe , does have RNG moments but as you go through the stages with the right combination and items, makes it a tad more easier to break through the RNG situations, overall listening to something + playing the game + half-turning off your noodle, kinda makes you less annoyed of it, more like a game "to play for the sake of playing and just flow", in a personal aspect at least. Despite all that...
