How it feels

A strategic deck-building RPG that plays like a dark fantasy visual novel, heavy on narrative choices and tactical puzzles.

What players say

Players love the Witcher storytelling, voice acting, and moral choices, but opinion splits on the gameplay. Some find the Gwent puzzles frustrating with only one solution, while others see them as a nice break from repetitive battles. A few note the last fight is too hard and missable items force replay.
