I wish I could give this game a higher rating, but I really didn't enjoy a lot of elements. To be fair, I don't enjoy deck builders at the best of times, so I can't really hold that against it. However I felt the combat varied wildly in difficulty, meaning I would often come to bosses very unprepared, with no way of changing out my hand until I died. I ended up skipping a lot of battles just because I was bored, which didn't feel very satisfying.

I did greatly enjoy the historical and folklore elements, and I feel like I've really learned something about Slavic history. In general the writing was interesting, but I felt it tailed off towards the end with some plot twists that didn't really have any substance.

this game is pretty good for a deck builder but damn it has balancing issues ive been playing on hard or nightmare for most battles and for the most part can stay full health by the end, but you get to the boss and its like a one shot, you swap to normal and its still just as bad, but then you swap to easy and you can basically win without taking much damage again, idk at least it allows difficulty swap but when the boss is unbeatable on normal mode, and the early battles can be taken on nightmare with little problems it definitally needs better balancing. Another thing thats annoying is no shuffle after play and youre left with the cards you didnt play and whatever you drew instead of full redraw like many builders.
