What players say
Players are split on Spellcaster University. Many find it an addictive mix of colony sim and deckbuilder that pulls you back for another run, especially with campaign carryovers. But others say the tutorial is bare bones, the UI is frustrating with easy accidental room placements, and that your choices often feel meaningless or that it plays itself.
