Dawncaster: Deckbuilding RPG for Positive User Reviews
✓ Amazing, makes time fly, just buy thisThis is such a fun game. So many character classes, each with completely different deck building styles for you to choose from which gives it infinite replay-ability. Eg. If you choose rogue, will you specialise in poison-dealing cards or in charming the opponent into submission? Or perhaps you prefer to try a knight, with cards that deal damage using divine magic or just go all out melee? The game has lots of different mechanics but they’re super easy to pick up due to how well everything is explained and laid out. I’ve played countless hours upon hours and haven’t grown tired of the base game yet. Might look into the expansions once I manage to beat the game with every class available - 3 more to go!.Version: 1.10.04
✓ It’s Worth ItNot gonna lie I hate buying games especially ones with dlc but this is one of the best mobile rouge likes I’ve played although it’s a bit grindy but we’ll worth it as it’s challenging 100+ cards No ads Each character has multiple builds and weapons you can focus around Detailed Great detailed art and story And even though I’ve beaten the game a few times I keep playing, I’ve had this for a couple months and it’s easily my favorite app game as I’m still finding and unlocking new cards and builds. I can tell just how much the creators have put effort into the game and love it even buying all the DLC (there’s 3 and some supporter stuff) deff worth it if you like card rouglikes such as slay the spire 10/10.Version: 1.8.11
✓ So goodI had basically given up on finding good games in the free to play wasteland that is the App Store. But Dawncaster is absolutely fabulous. Worth every penny, and up there with great deck builders like slay the spire and monster train. The amount of card variety and build options is huge, with lots of character classes to choose from and a very clever system for multi-classing. My only gripe is that there are lots of misspelled words and typos like missing apostrophes. But that’s a minor quibble for an otherwise great game. Pick it up!.Version: 1.10.05
✓ Very good gameGood card game. Worth for the price..Version: 1.11.09
✓ Beautiful gameThank you devs, what a fantastic game! Beautifully balanced, a real joy to play!.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Even better than Slay the SpireThis is one of the best card-based games I’ve had the pleasure of playing. There’s a surprising amount of depth, a great learning curve, plenty to unlock, including key cards to introduce new strategies, and immense replayability. This game has drawn me in over the last month, and has easily become my most-used app. The production values are also top notch, and everything from the animations, to the sound, even to the patch notes, show that this is a developer who truly cares about providing a top class experience. I’ve bought both expansions, and am eagerly awaiting whatever comes out next..Version: 1.5.18
✓ Best roguelike on iPadBetter than slay the spire or monster train. Makes FTL seem easy, well supported and balanced in the way players like (can chase that high roll). Provides hours of fun trying to unlock everything and endless hours of replay ability afterwards. Did I mention that any time you think you’re over it they launch an update? Def worth getting for anyone that’s a fan of deck building rougelike games. Can’t recommend enough.Version: 1.9.00
✓ My favorite card rouge-like.It’s the only one where I’ve put a 8+ hours into my first play through. It’s engaging and very well done. Idk what it is but I enjoyed this one more then any of the others I’ve tried(almost all the other card rouge-likes available). I hope they continue to build on it and perfect it. Good job guys, please don’t give up on this..Version: 1.3.10
✓ Top notch!A rogue-lite deckbuilder with masterful gameplay mechanics and art. The dev team is engaged with players and updating content on a constant basis; recently there was a free (and brilliant) card expansion. The game has enormous replay value- there are 6 “classes” with numerous unlockables, and the card and “level up bonus” pool is deep enough to make every run different. If you want difficulty, the enhanced difficulty settings can provide a formidable challenge. Overall, this is an incredible value for the price. Hundreds of hours of gameplay if you want it, and more content on the way. As a 1000+ hour Slay the Spire player, this is by far my favorite mobile game of all time..Version: 1.4.08
✓ Awesome DeckbuilderHello love the game and the fact that you support it with updates and expansions. My only constructive criticism is that the difficulty curve between “normal” and difficult is too steep. If anyone from developers team is reading this I would suggest try playing maximum level Arcanist. With this class on normal difficulty I am able to wipe the floor with enemies. But on Difficult setting the balance seems way too much bias in the enemy’s favor by the third stage. Try playing for yourself and see. It needs serious tweaking by not much honestly IMO lowering the damage by a 1-8 would make a difference. Thanks for creating a great game and would suggest you continue to make DLC for this title because it has great replay ability..Version: 1.4.19
✓ An absolute hidden gem!I've been playing this game for about 3 months now and I'm absolutely obsessed with it. It's the type of game you can play for 3 minutes when you need to kill some time, or 3 hours if you want. The animation is beautiful, the classes are unique, the cards are so varied and have so many different synergies and builds you can play with every run. The one and only downside is that while every run is randomized, most of the story elements you encounter along the way are the same every time. But for me, I don't play these types of games for the story so it doesn't bother me too much. If you're looking for a fun and addicting roguelite, look no further..Version: 1.8.13
✓ Brilliant game and totally accessible to the blind!I love this game! There are so many cards to choose from and i can see myself getting entertained by this game for hundreds of hours. Thank you so much for making this game accessible..Version: 1.12.01
✓ Excellent game, active communityNo microtransactions or ads! This game is challenging, highly engaging, and can be played one-handed. It strikes an intriguing balance between randomness and player control. Progression is linear from low to high numbered areas. Each combat area includes an encounter deck that consists of Enemies, Shops, Rests, and fleeting Opportunities. The player is presented with 3 cards from the encounter deck (similar to Night of the Full Moon) and must choose 1 to proceed. Each combat area has a boss at the end. Combat consists of playing cards. Each card had an energy color and cost. The player can generate energy in different colors based on stats (Dex, Int, Str). Pay the energy costs to play the cards. The enemy also has energy and a small deck of cards. Enemy actions are telegraphed by the cardback icons. Beware of black cardbacks! Upon victory, the player is presented with gold, XP, and 3 cards. Choose 1 card to add to your deck or skip. After the player XP bar fills, the player gains a Talent. Talents are ongoing passive effects. Talents may increase a stat, upgrade card damage, add or remove combat status effects, etc. I have played this game from early iterations and have now come to expect the developers to recognize, respond to, and incorporate good suggestions into future updates. The Discord (linked in the app) is an active and helpful place. Though the game is single-player, the Discord community adds a social element..Version: 1.3.07
✓ .Updates are great!.Version: 1.3.04
✓ Top Tier deck builderI would rank this alongside Slay the Spire and Monster Train as one of the most addictive and satisfying deckbuilders out there. Been a lover of StS for a long time and struggled to find anything out there that scratched a similar itch. Dawncaster did it..Version: 1.11.09
✓ Excellent designFantastic card design and class unlock design. Kept me playing all the way through full class unlocks because each one made new card synergies possible. A couple of tweaks I would like to see: Quests auto refresh once completed and one run in which completed is over. With so many cards, shop size should be larger. Maybe each level the selection increases. Single color runs are much more 1 dimensional than dual color runs—this is because of the transmuting mechanic. There are limited epics and legendaries to transmute into for single-color. There are 3x as many for dual color. Since the most powerful cards shape the deck, that means 3x the variety in dual color runs. Perhaps fix this by allowing me to pick the color to transmute into before showing the three cards. That way if I’m blue but am looking for a blue-green card to complement my deck, I can get a shot at it when transmuting..Version: 1.7.09
✓ Solid card play but repetitive designI really enjoy the card play, drafting options, art style, and the fact that I don’t have to turn my phone to play the game. The one negative I have is that It’s not obvious what the statues will do. Sometimes it makes you change a card other times it upgrades it… it should be clear what it will do before you decide to use it..Version: 1.11.01
✓ Fun but I hate Rogue type games…I can’t dock stars for a personal preference… Excellent game design and balance. I would pay 2x more for an RPG game that wasn’t pseudo progression like Rogue-like, lite and all these “rogue clone” fads. After 1 game I realized welp thats about it…RPG’s have always been about character development and story progression. When my character evaporates so does my motivation to play again I guess Rogue games cater to the Tinder mindset wham bam thank ya mam….Version: 1.4.17
✓ Excellent game and some of the best value for money you can get on the App StoreI’m a big deckbuilder fan generally (I’ve spent hundreds of hours on Slay the Spire/Dominion/Netrunner etc) and was surprised this game hadn’t already been on my radar. I’ll just get right to it - this game is fantastic, and the amount of replayability on offer is staggering for the price point. Possibly the only better deckbuilder on the App Store is of course Slay the Spire itself but it’s hard to compete with the game that basically popularized roguelike deckbuilders. I will say that the mechanics might take a bit to understand, especially for players who haven’t tried Spire or similar games. There are a ton of status effects to learn, different ways of ‘solving’ bosses and encounters, and despite the helpful tooltips everywhere it will still take a few playthroughs to feel comfortable (and that’s okay!) Some players might also find the difficulty off putting at first but that’s true of any good roguelike. I also do think there are some mild balancing tweaks that could be made (I’ve been broadly unimpressed with Divinity cards, feel that Brittle breaks a lot of the game, and find that the Dazed status effect counters a few too many deck types, though granted I’m only ~10-15 hours in) but it seems the devs are very actively updating the game with changes and new content. I also love the mechanics behind different energy types and the fact that energy is conserved across turns - adds a ton more depth to the gameplay. Also of note is the art style and attention to detail. I adore that each enemy has a deck of their own for you to learn, complete with art specific to them. It also means that the upper limit on game knowledge is quite high, which makes putting in time feel rewarding. Having multiple different classes with their own play styles, art design, and unique starting decks is also great, and I really like that there’s open crossover between cards (eg being able to buy Arcanist cards as a Knight). For Spire players - think Prismatic Shard, unlocked from the get go. Can’t praise this game enough and I’m excited to see where the devs take it. There’s a clear love for deckbuilders that went into this and it’s really wonderful to experience. A price point below 10 dollars almost feels criminal to the devs for how much content it provides..Version: 1.5.03
✓ Really fun and deepIf you like slay the spire you will love this game..Version: 1.10.05
✓ Really enjoyable!Great roguelike, frequently updated with REAL game improvements (not just minor compatibility & bug fix updates, but balance changes and improvements to game mechanics). Been playing since launch, still come back to it due to the updates keeping it fresh. Highly Recommended..Version: 1.2.04
✓ Very well thought deck building game!If you have any interest in deck building games this one is a no brainer. Beautiful artwork, nice music, the lore is great. Combat and synergy is a delight. Two thumbs up. Congrats to the devs!.Version: 1.5.07
✓ Worth every buckFound this on itch.io. Absolutely loved it. Perfect for slaking that deck building craving, and without any ridiculous ads or gem purchases or whatnot. The style is great and very clean, and definitely worth its price for the replayability. There are a few bits here and there could potentially be improved such as the occasional spelling error or intentional misspelling? Its genuinely hard to tell. It would also be good to be able to cancel some choices such as imbuing cards if you accidentally click on it. Overall can’t recommend it enough..Version: 1.1.19
✓ One of the BestI am very glad to have stumbled upon this great game with amazing dev support. The game is simple enough to jump into, but there are plenty of interesting mechanics that keep the game fun. I'm also a huge fan of the design. I've been playing similar games for the last few years - Roguelite deckbuilders are one of my favorite genres but it's been tough finding one with good support and replayability. I have found a few good ones out there but they seem to have been forgotten about, not having received updates in months/years. This is not only one of the best mobile games I've ever played but the care and attention the developer puts into this is unlike anything I have seen before..Version: 1.8.03
✓ My favorite gameI have a lot of games but this is my favorite game. It works great with the iPhone in portrait and iPad Pro in landscape (I’m using a Magic Trackpad 2.) So much content and so many challenges. Like Dead Cells, you play the same story initially and it branches. It is a roguelike (turn based) in the truest sense, so after death you level up toward more unlockables, abilities etc. The developers are constantly updating the game and interacting with us players in Discord. This is a model for what a good game and development is like. Keep in mind, for iCloud it saves characters permanent achievements so all their leveling, rewards, talents, etc. You will be playing different runs on different devices but whatever you do it’ll contribute to your meta-progress, which is fine. I’m so impressed I purchased all the DLCs and the tip for coffee. :).Version: 1.6.03
✓ Keeps getting betterI genuinely think this is the best game on iOS. The developer is actively engaged with the player via Discord on a daily basis and is constantly improving the game and adding new content..Version: 1.8.09
✓ Very funVery fun game! Any chance you would add a limitless mode? So you can keep going after beating the final boss.Version: 1.11.09
✓ Fun and addictive!A great rogue-like card game. If you like rogue games, you’ll love this. If you like card games, you’ll love this..Version: 1.9.02
✓ Great GameThis is my first ever review of a game. I’ve enjoyed games like Slay the Spire, and when I came across this game, I instantly fell in love with it. It has so much depth and ways to develop your deck that unique each time you play. There’s multiple characters with multiple weapons, ready to do something different. Highly, highly recommend!!!.Version: 1.8.13
✓ Irritating bugI’ve watched my health bar drain to zero twice now after ending my turn. This happened both times for no possible reason except that maybe I was playing while app auto-updated and became incompatible with newer version. Still, a warning would be nice. It’s a huge waste of time when a game of higher difficulty can take up to 3 hours or more!.Version: 1.4.05
✓ Honestly really solid, lots of replay valueIf you’ve played Slay the Spire, Across the Obelisk, or any of the other roguelike deckbuilders to release in the last few years, you will recognize their influence on Dawncaster immediately. There’s a huge amount of build variety if you’re the type of player that really likes to experiment with different strategies. This is the real meat of the game in my opinion at the moment. My only real complaint is that the overworld event/combat deck which deals your options out instead of a map to click through is arguably the game’s most interesting and distinguishing feature, but also where it runs up against itself. It’s not always clear when a dialog or event choice is purely fluff or related to a consequence. This is fine the first couple times you run an event or dialog chain, but it quickly becomes a process of trying to memorize the right answers. I’m still finding it a great game to unwind with, and it’s neat to see it receiving new content and support. Happy to support these devs..Version: 1.12.02
✓ The best deck builder with great devsIf you liked slay the spire, monster train, night of the full moon, dominion etc. get this game asap. I prefer Dawncaster over all of the others now. Also the developers are amazing, they’re constantly adding free updates with over hundreds of new cards. All of the paid expansions are great too! Highly recommend dawncaster, it’s an amazing addictive game!.Version: 1.11.09
✓ Gem!A simple yet complicated and polished Rogue-lite CCG. Very enjoyable and replayable (with all 3 DLCs). The Discord community is really good and helps a lot with questions and also strategy planning..Version: 1.5.21
✓ Worth your time AND your moneyI’ve put a couple hundred hours into this game since it’s launch on iOS and without a doubt it’s one of the best games released on a mobile platform. Somehow the developers have pretty well balanced all of these different class to fit different play styles. In a world where gaming companies have actively worked to exploit the worst tendencies in people in order to extract vast sums of money, these guys make a simple well crafted product that will stand the test of time. Everyone should support passion projects like this!.Version: 1.5.12
✓ Love this game so much!Right up with the best roguelites card games next to Slay the Spire for mobile and man is this game great. Only just bought it and been so worth it. Will definitely buy the dlc and buy future ones as always! Only thing i can say is definitely would like the option to increase game speed even more if possible!.Version: 1.5.12
✓ Best game on App Store!This game has been on my phone since the release of the first expansion. I came looking for more games like Slay the Spire, and I found gold. It has everything: fantastic growth, so many possibilities for each run, and the classes feel unique, yet nothing hard to understand. I have purchased every expansion since I got this game simply because I want to support the team more. The work they put into this game is what every person wished others would do. The only thing I will say I wish was in the game was more classes ( I have played a lot, and so I want more ) But I have to admit I am not even sure what else you could add as they have everything. Thank you for this fantastic masterpiece..Version: 1.11.09
✓ Fantastic GameIf you enjoy deck builders give this a go. Fair upfront pricing, no micro transactions or other nonsense, just a solid game with active development and awesome devs. The difficulty curve can be a bit extreme so I recommend starting on normal if you are experienced with the genre and going from there once you have identified comfortable strategies. There are a lot of surprising combos and depth that you can pull off once you start to understand card interactions and events. Enjoy!.Version: 1.4.10
✓ Top-tier deckbuilding adventure!Everything about this game is too notch. The dialogue options, the artwork, the card synergies, the difficulty curve and more. It has quickly become my favourite card game on the App Store, and I can’t wait to play through the expansions.Version: 1.6.08
✓ Best since slayThe spire.Version: 1.8.13
✓ Best deck builder on iOSHands down mega fun! You’re missing out if you love slay the spire and even across the obelisk. This is for you - Soup.Version: 1.5.18
✓ Best deck builder on IOSI’ve played the usual deck builder suspects and am very glad to have come across this gem. Lots of interesting mechanics and choices to make along a run.Version: 1.7.09
✓ My favorite phone game by farI have spent probably 300+ hours on this game. I'm still discovering new builds, and that's the aspect of this game that I like the most. The developers are out of this world with regards to updating and balancing the game. From the discord, it is clear that they are very involved and receptive to feedback. I whip this game out whenever I’m in line, whenever I need to pass time, whenever I’m bored in bed, bored at work, etc. The game itself is balanced. For the most part. Hard difficulty is indeed hard, and impossible difficulty is appropriately satisfying. The game requires that you really do need to have at least some level of knowledge to really thrive at the higher difficulties, but the learning curve is appropriate. I’ve zero hesitation to buy any future expansions. The gameplay itself is very satisfying, and the animations and speed/responsiveness leaves nothing to be desired.Version: 1.8.08
✓ Amazing - finally a great card RPGA refreshing and very well polished change from other card games. So much better than the usual mobile game IAP trash out there. Thanks to the developers for this game - I’m really enjoying it! Just enough challenge and you feel your choices in the rounds approaching bosses make a difference! Loads of replayability too. 5 Stars!.Version: 1.4.05
✓ Simply the best. Would love more expansions.Other than maybe slay the spire this is the best mobile game I’ve played. Bought both “expansions” and have been playing non stop. Not even close to unlocking all the different ways to play not gone into the higher difficulties. I wish more studios would follow this way to design. The quality is top notch..Version: 1.7.09
✓ Great deck builder, surprisingly so for mobileLots of content, different mechanics for each class to build around. Probably the best mobile game I've ever played because it's fully featured and deep, nice visuals, and many mechanics. If you've played slay the spire, it will feel quite familiar. Quite a lot of mechanics that you can build around relative to some other deck builder roguelikes I've seen on mobile :) Cons: - A bit slow for experience unlocks of new starting options - Can feel a bit limiting in terms of cards you use because you can't really set up a deck around certain mechanics (e.g. souls). At least not with the initial decks.Version: 1.7.09
✓ Truly fantastic and engagingWorth your time, and amazing that its free! I’d have happily spent $10 or more with the fun I’ve got out of this. Bought the DLC too which is worth it as well.Version: 1.7.01
✓ Great Deck BuilderGame is a blast to play over and over again, trying different builds and going to different areas. Regular updates add free cards to the game and paid expansions add areas, enemies, and new quests. Love the art as well, great card graphics and enemy design is on point, love unique small bosses you can encounter throughout the journey on top of the area bosses all bring together a fun challenge throughout your run. I will continue to support the devs who listen to their community and put out quality content regularly. Always find myself coming back when I see a new card pack is out or a new expansion is available for me to buy and play. Great work! I’m not into deck builders, but I’m certainly into this game..Version: 1.12.01
✓ Awesome game, even more awesome that it’s accessibleComplex, addictive, and extremely fun! This game has everything. Best of all it’s completely accessible to visually impaired people which is great. I’ve always wanted to play something like this. Absolutely recommended you won’t regret it.Version: 1.12.00
✓ Amazing card designReally exciting and thematic cards. Lots to unlock. Interesting narratives. I love this kind of game and hadn’t heard of this one at all - pleasantly surprised thanks devs.Version: 1.6.06
✓ Hands down the best card battler appSingle player with loads of interesting growth and options, so you never get ground down to only playing 2-3 meta decks. Great story and deep world building. Constant development. NO MICROTRANSACTIONS!! You can choose to buy expansions or not, but progress is never hampered by that decision. It can be a slog to start unlocking cool stuff, but once you get rolling, this is the final word in card-driven iOS gaming..Version: 1.11.09
✓ Dawncaster has confirmed that looks can be deceiving!When I first saw this app in the App Store and saw that it wasn’t a free app I thought to myself I’m not sure if it’ll be fun (most paid games in my opinion aren’t) but I gave it a try anyways. As I played more and more I began seeing just how much of a gem this game is. The game is well balanced and so incredibly fun. For a mobile game I think it well deserves a 5 star rating. I found myself playing this game for a few hours on end. It’s thrilling and entertaining at the same time. This was well worth the money!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Depthy and polishedVery depthy and polished card game with a thoughtful RPG experience. Plenty of replayability. One of my favourite games on the App Store. A generous developer is rare these days..Version: 1.12.00
✓ Nice game, well presented and enjoyable.If you like dream quest or night of the full moon this is more of the same in a good way. It is pretty hard though!.Version: 1.1.0
✓ Best deck builder I've found on iOS.Normally, I do not write reviews. The developers of this game have made something special. I find this to be more engaging than Slay the Spire, and other deckbuikder rogue-like games on iOS. The game has been updated many times, and everytime it keeps getting better, especially with the recent DLC and 2.0 release! Keep up the good work!.Version: 1.3.11
✓ Wonderfully Replayable!Best game I’ve experienced on my phone. I’m a slay the spire and monster train veteran. I prefer this on the phone for its interface and, just something else, lots of paths to victory. Lots of challenges on high difficulty too. DLC really fun too. For devs: see if you can implement some AI for choose your own adventure style pathing, items, unique conversation options. Game would be unreal..Version: 1.10.05
✓ Pretty cool 3.7 starsI just started playing; the game seems very cool so far. However, i noticed a mechanic missing that I had been used to in pirates outlaws where you can separately target yourself and enemies, and even put "beneficial" effects on enemies for a unique combination... I immediately feel like this is better than that popular "spire" game which, I think is awful having been spoiled by the clever, complex & addicting gameplay of pirates outlaws; spires has a pleasing aesthetic but awful and much less balanced, less complex gameplay than pirates outlaws. i will update this..Version: 1.8.12
✓ Great deck builderI’ve been looking for a good deck building RPG for so long. This is a great game, either for a quick 5 minute session or an hour long train journey. Many a boring hour at work has been relieved by playing this game. The art style is awesome, the cards are interesting and it’s nicely challenging without being frustrating. I’ve already bought all the expansions as I’m so glad to have found a really good deckbuilder. 5 stars from me, definitely recommend!.Version: 1.6.05
✓ Great deck builder and visualsReally enjoying this game. I've not had any of the bugs mentioned in a couple of other comments, and one 1* for having the option to donate a coffee - grow up, it's another way of raising funds for the development. You'll get quite a few hours for your £5, ill be buying the expansions soon once I've spent some more time in the base game.Version: 1.10.05
✓ Best deck builder on mobileI’ve been playing Dawncaster for a long time now. I’ve seen it grow and improve and have loved it every step of the way. There are many classes that you can chose from and each one feels different and unique. The game also doesn’t force you to play a certain way, all play styles are welcomed and experimenting is encouraged. The game plays in portrait mode (HUGE PLUS) as I won’t play games in landscape mode. Overall this game will keep you entertained for hours upon hours and it’s only a few dollars. Worth every penny and worth every minute spent playing it. Thank you Reyality for making such an enjoyable game for us..Version: 1.4.19
✓ Hooked from the startI normally don’t write reviews for games, but this one is an exception. I was looking for a rogue-like card game and came across this as a suggestion. Read the reviews, looked at the pictures, decided to give it a shot. Needless to say I’ve been hooked ever since. I’ve been playing this for months now and I’ve never gotten bored of it. There’s endless replay value, it’s tough enough to make you think about how to build your deck to win, but not hard to the point where you’re going to bang your head against the wall. 10/10 would recommend.Version: 1.8.00
✓ Like Magic the Gathering had a baby with Slay the SpireAs a rouge lite deck building junky, video game lover, and developer I have to give mad props on this impressive deck builder. The fast paced combat reminds me of slay the spire, and makes it easy to hop on and off. A lot of key words on the cards and beautiful card art that takes a mtg/hearthstone approach to combat. Tons of content, classes, and monsters. There are in app purchases, but you don’t need them to enjoy the experience and the game is always getting maintenance. The only thing that bummed me out is that this is only mobile and doesn’t get the shine it deserves. TLDR this is a super impressive and fun game . I’ve been on the look out for a deck builder that’s on par with slay the spire/monster train for a while now, and now I think I’ve found one..Version: 1.10.05
✓ Quality game, well worth the price.I played the game for about two hours before it sold me on buying the dlc pack too. I’ve been put about 15 hours on it over the past few days. I imagine I’ll have well over a 100 hours minimum playing this game. That’s ten cents per hour of entertainment. Movie tickets are like twenty bucks for an hour or two. So much value and replayability in this game..Version: 1.4.19
✓ Super addictingI rarely write a review but this game is beyond fun. At first I thought it was too hard, but as I started reading the cards more carefully and understanding the mechanics, I was able to start moving forward. There are a few balancing issues still depending what class you choose and with certain enemies you encounter. Overall this has become my new addiction…to the point I might have to delete it haha!.Version: 1.4.19
✓ One of the best deck-builders on any platformIt blows me away, how incredibly well made and well balanced and well designed and freaking fun this game is. in my opinion, this has to be one of the best deck building games on any platform. I kinda can’t believe it’s a mobile game. There’s no doubt that the developer puts so much care and love and attention into every detail of the player’s experience. There are improvements being made all of the time that make an already fantastic game even better. if you like this style of single player deck building game then this is the one to get. there’s so much depth to the game and I’ve barely scratched the surface. bravo, bravo!.Version: 1.11.08
✓ [Update] Dawncaster is a Gem, Despite Minor HiccupsJust recently purchased this debut game from Wanderlost, and I have been enjoying it greatly. It’s been awhile since I’ve played a new mobile game from a new developer, and with Dawncaster, I’m glad I gave it a chance. Although there are a few writing errors and the occasional glitch, they are (as of yet) inconsequential to the overall enjoyment of the gameplay. I’m looking forward to future updates and how this game will be further refined. [Update: So, I’ve messed around with the difficulty settings and discovered that the “Story” setting does not work as listed. Characters still die once HP reaches 0. Needs addressing.].Version: 1.0
✓ Diamond in the RoughThis has great potential. Meaningful character differences. Love the aesthetic—too many cartoon “rpgs” out there! Similar play to “Night of the Full Moon,” which is a good thing. Very difficult though; could use some rebalancing and/or more healing potential. Also, my biggest complaint: Rogue-likes without some mechanic for growth (even from a failed run)... aren’t fun for long. With some updates, could be my favourite game!.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Excellent, Excellent game.I can’t overstate how impressed I am by this game. Excellent deckbuilding mechanics with RPG elements and lots of different varieties of gameplay. Good sound design, solid music, great art, tons of replayability all for a decent price. The game can get a little repetitive if you don’t download the DLCs but they are very appropriately priced and definitely worth picking up after awhile if you enjoy the base game. I will definitely be on the lookout for other games by this developer. Very few games scratch the “slay the spire” itch well without completely copying it but this game does so very well..Version: 1.5.13
✓ Great, engaging deckbuilder with unique mechanicsThis deckbuilder is one of the best I’ve played in some time! There are the classic, single-color classes that can focus on a number of strategies, but the addition of multi-colored classes is a game changer. There’s a huge amount of versatility and creativity even with the randomness of rewards and encounters. If you’re interested in a challenge (Meteorfall and Slay the Spire come to mind) with a little bit of MTG and the ambiance of Diablo, you have found the right game. Happy building!.Version: 1.5.06
✓ Very good!Nicely done!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Best Deckbuilder on iPhoneTons of fun unlocks, gorgeous art, and a “pay once” cost model. I bought all the expansions and have more than gotten my money’s worth of fun. Each run is different and I enjoy making new builds and trying out various card combinations. It has a learning curve and requires flexible thinking to take advantage of the cards you find. I now hardly lose on normal, but find the harder difficulty levels challenging..Version: 1.6.08
✓ Better than non-mobile deckbuildersI have literally never bothered to leave a review for a game before, but this one deserves it. An absolutely superb game, mechanics and design wise this is comparable and in a lot of areas even better than its non-mobile counterparts. Ive played quite a few deckbuilders and Im hard pressed to think of one Ive enjoyed more than this one. I find myself invested in a run for hours and playing with as much attention and thought as if I were playing a game on my pc or playstation. The amount of content you get for the price of a coffee is very praiseworthy and shows that this developer cared more about delivering a quality game than a money printer. Buy it.Version: 1.9.02
✓ GemThis is how all iOS games should be designed. Really great value. Doesn’t need the expansions to be 5 stars as there is lots of content. I’ll end up buying them once I’ve got a handle on the base game though..Version: 1.6.05
✓ Very good but game breaking bugIf you read this, this probably won’t affect you and you should definitely try out this game. But to the devs, I left the game while the card upgrade thing was going on, and I when I restarted the game(also after downloading the new update) now the game won’t so anything. It opens up, and brings up the area title card, but it does nothing from there. It also doesn’t save, since the run duration keeps resetting every time I go back to the menu. Please fix this, as I had a rally good run going, and was literally about the face the final boss. My thoughts would be that some variable to spawn the cards never got turned off or on? Like maybe the game thinks it’s still waiting for me the select a card to upgrade, so it doesn’t spawn them in? Just food for thought. Edit: Well, I gave up on the run, but thanks anyways for fixing it! Hope you have a great day!.Version: 1.4.17
✓ BrilliantHats off to the creators , they really have done something special with this one 😄.Version: 1.6.02
