‘Solforge’ New Set, Darkforge Uprising, Coming Out Soon

TouchArcade Rating:

Solforge (Free), the CCG wih the clever card-leveling mechanic, is about to release a new card set that is bound to shake up the current meta. The new expansion introduces the Darkforged, a mysterious group whose dark power links them to each and gives them strength in numbers. However, that dark power occasionally has a mind of its own that twists its users, which means expect to have these new cards turn on you occasionally. Stoneblade has been previewing some of the new cards, and they look fantastic. Solforge‘s art been improving with every new set, and judging from the preview cards, Darkforge Uprising will definitely raise the bar in the art department even more.

Solforge is continuing to expand its card collection almost non-stop, and I’m pretty sure it’s the most often-updated CCG on the App Store. Even though the game’s UI leaves a lot to be desired (it was put together hastily in the beginning of the game’s development, and it shows), the developers plan to overhaul it sometime this fall when the game launches officially. The upcoming UI update makes me hopeful that this great CCG will finally get the attention its art and mechanics deserve. The new set can be pre-ordered from Stoneblade’s website, and I expect the expansion to be out very soon.

      It looks like it's time to get lost in space again. The atmosphere of this game was already amazing, I can't wait to see version 2.0.

      Do you have to play with the new content once you update or can you turn it off?

      1. RandallPeek

        I don't see an option to turn it off, but why would anyone want to? The text integrates seamlessly and the graphics are phenomenally better.

      I love this game. The sheer despair and life like randomness is phenomenal. If you think about it... It's actually got better odds then you would have in real life if you were lost in space.... Think about that one! It terrifies and boggles the mind of the awesome size of the damned Galaxy let alone the freaking universe.... There's so much to understand! I need to stop doing drugs so I can try and realize.... Hmmmm. Nahhhhhhhhh

      Sweet As! Been looking forward to this excellent update to an already challenging and exciting game! Big Up to the dev for bringing this, and free?! Woohoo!

      Holy smokes! What a wonderful surprise!!

    14. Tommmy

      Does the gameplay still heavily relies on rng?

    15. qdisqust

      I'll try it out... But yeah I had 2 problems with this game. This first was that you (or at least I never found a way) couldn't scroll the viewport to bring stars that were in range of your engine onto the screen, so I'd get stuck down legs that I had to do massive backtracking on just because of the retarded UI. The second was that it was altogether too random. Like, one time I took 2 stacks of fuel into the... Don't want to spoil it... Into the event that starts the endgame section. And it randomly destroyed both and left me stranded. Bull.

        You need the telescope to pan the screen. It's a feature.
