How it feels

A strategic, turn-based card battler with a cartoony fantasy aesthetic, where success comes from careful deck building and tactical card combos.

What players say

Players enjoy the art, music, and distinct character playstyles, but agree card removal is too rare and energy management feels tedious. Many call it a straightforward Slay the Spire clone with a wuxia theme and say it is easier than similar games. Some find the large number of card archetypes per character makes decks feel unfocused.
