    Gameplay is fun enough, but the sound design in this game is like really super bad! Overall feeling is that this could use a little more polish...

    Ermahgawd. I just watched a video of this on YouTube and giggled gleefully. I'm downloading it again just so I know when the SE bug update is out.

    I snagged it immediately as I already loved it on the PC.

    If it hadn't been made clear earlier this is essentially a fun suped up take on Solitaire Golf (clearing cards off the board if they are 1 rank higher or 1 rank lower than the current top of the discard) and the layout you're clearing is your opponent. Clear out the level and they are defeated.

    -Once you run out of moves and are forced to turn over a new stock card, your opponent gets a turn which consists of turning over the top card of his own separate little deck of tricks. What kind of shenanigans your opponent can pull is entirely based on your specific opponent but most take the form of throwing up obstacles on the playfield or just outright damaging you the player.

    -Depending on which character you're playing, you too have several fun little tricks you can use to bring the odds back in your favor. The game has 4 suits, and with each card played to the discard pile, a point of mana for that suit is generated, get enough of said pooled mana and you can do something like zap a card off the board or heal your character.

    -Once you've cleared the level you'll gain some cash you can spend at a shop in between levels to either get better skills or gear to increase your odds in your next encounter.

    -So it goes until you finally defeat the final big boss or die trying. Either way at the end you'll be given some karma points which, once you've saved enough, will unlock new characters or add some cool abilities to already unlocked characters.

    I am loving this game. I think it is on equal footing with Card Crawl-both are exceptional solitaire-y type games but different strategies. Card Crawl is portrait only, and that has not been a problem for me, and neither is this game.

    Digging this game. In a funny way, the enemies and overall humour (not gameplay although they're both card games) reminds me of Swords & Poker 1&2 before konami ruined that game.

    It's good fun and a great take on both solitaire and rogue games, again like someone else said, perfect for mobile.

    Well done developers

    Paid, played for a couple hours and already felt I got my money's worth.

    What are people's opinions on first unlock? Should it be for a new character, new deck for warrior, or new item slot?

    Hi guys was looking forward to buying this but in the UK store it comes up at £2.99 but when I click it it won't let me buy it. Just get a spinning circle then goes back to the 2.99. Any idea what's wrong.

    Fun game, but the play is kind of slow. I increased the speed in options, but if you play a lot of solitaire, even that feels a bit pokey. If you've played Fairway Solitaire, you'll know what I mean. After a while, you're going to want to play fast after getting the hang of the game.

    Really appreciate that. Please be sure to make sure it works in either landscape orientation if you do (important for using smart covers in various positions).
