This is a strangely addicting game.
It has its flaws, to be sure (I'm not certain there has ever been a game that needed to have an "energy" system), and the obvious monetisation is a mite grating, but overall it's simple to learn, difficult to master, a fun deck-builder, and you can play it in 5 minutes.
Very much a "pay for shortcuts" game, but still enjoyable on the lower levels.
Behold, Horatio Sollen I "The Entirely Awesome!", He who, for no real reason, decided halfway through his journey to start casting spells despite being rubbish at it, and thus became much beaten the christ up.
Game breaking bug: logged on after a few days absent, and now cannot use Lorebook, single player quests, quest scrolling arrows, upgrade buildings, build buildings, empty counting house, produce, send my Swords adventuring, or communicate with any other players in game.
I'm Lord Horatio Sollen, Banner of the Lannisters, Hear Me Roar alliance, power level 6, volume 1, chapter 1 (technically complete, but won't let me progress), just failed the timed mission with Robb Stark and the bear, if that's any help whatsoever.
in a town in the woods/ at the top of a hill/ there's a house where no-none lives.
so you take a big bag/ of your big city money there... and buy it.
but late at night/ when the house is dark and you're all alone there's a nose upstairs.
at the top of the stairs there's a door/ and you take adeep breath/ and try it

my computer bugged out, so the soundtrack for the armour games logo appearing was cut down to just the sword sound effects.
it worked really well considering the game
