Played a demo

The basic mechanics are good, turn-based battles with TCG mechanics of summoning monsters and casting spells. But the visuals are just abysmal. The art style is generic and uninspired. The character movements are stiff. Plus, I just absolutely hate top-down views. Isometric is fine but seeing the top of the character's and enemies' heads is just really a stupid vantage point in my opinion.

I ran into a problem at the end of the first dungeon where I (playing on novice difficulty) could not beat the final boss despite exploring the whole dungeon, getting every upgrade I could, and going into the battle with full health. I've played a lot of turn-based strategy games. I'm not amazing at them but I feel like there is a balance issue if I'm having trouble beating the first boss with 100% dungeon completion.

Again, the mechanics are solid and I think the game has a lot of potential. It's just not for me. If you don't mind the art style, give it a go. Demo is still available so there's no risk.
