How it feels

A strategic dice-manipulation card battler where you bend random mana dice to cast spells and battle through corrupted lands.

What players say

Players praise the inventive dice-and-card engine that creates satisfying combos, but say the early game can feel grindy and runs often feel decided by the second fight. Balance is considered rough, and the many overlapping effects can be hard to track, though the challenge ramps up nicely on higher difficulties.
