What players say
89% of 1,721 reviews are positive
Players praise the accessible deck-building rules, card combinations, expansion variety, and solo play. Their most common complaint is that online matches do not let them increase the honor pool, so games end before their decks develop. Some also report crashes during unusually long turns.
