PsyCard asks, what if minesweeper was a card game from Kaiji. but with Lesbians. and the cutest boys you've ever seen.

(Played on Android.)

Charming, great concept, like Minesweeper but with more tactical risk-taking, but sadly feels a little incomplete. There aren't really enough variations on the ruleset to keep it interesting all the way through, and even though opponents may have different play styles it feels sufficiently opaque that it's not really useful to know that. Opponents' abilities often feel like they just shut down your options in ways that are frustrating rather than interesting.

A major flaw is that the game (at least on Android) doesn't save progress within a tournament, which includes matches against multiple opponents, each consisting of multiple games. This makes it frustratingly easy to lose progress while switched away to another app.

It's a shame the quick game mode neither remembers your settings from last time nor lets you select a random opponent.

Despite all this, I still play it from time to time, and I would definitely play a sequel. I wish I could rate it higher, but it feels a bit too messy and flawed as it stands.
