Interesting concept, but I'd say the expression 'to clever by half' applies here... The system, while original from what I know, is pretty convoluted, and I find this distracts from the actual strategy involved. That and this doesn't quite seem complete; eg cards should appear larger when hovered over, if I don't want to play full screen.

I thought the game was fun and it could be a brilliant web game... but the lack of any progression hurts it. The expansions seem extremely well priced compared to other online card games, but the current model probably won't keep people around long enough to be willing to drop some cash. still, 5/5, loved the game and I hope people stop down-voting it due to the currency model, people gotta realize advertising alone wont pay for a CCG :p

I've really came to love this game since I understood how to play it. I love games like these, I love Dominion aswell and this reminds me of it.
But now I've come to the point that I managed to finish the first campaign and now what? They want me to pay that I can play the second campaign? That's not what I consider a fair, free game. I understand that the developers want money, sure, but there was no sign that told me "Just one campaign, if you want more, give us all your money"... Disappointing. =( I really loved this game but this ruined it to me...

Really interesting game concept, I love how each game feels like a 'quest'. I'm not going to complain about the campaigns as I haven't beaten the first one yet, but this has kept me entertained for a good hour.

One thing I might suggest adding is a game log to which you can refer during the match. That way if you look away and miss what the AI purchased or what monster they defeated, you can toggle it and take a look. I wouldn't recommend being able to review the entire match while you're playing, but maybe just the events of the turn immediately previous.

the idea of paying for the sets to unlock the campaigns is spoiling the fun. Without the unlocked sets it is merely a demo. You should make most of it free and only some e.g. newest sets should be avaliable for kreds. The game could have 4/5 raiting but as most other players i rank it 2-3/5

Looks good, could be a ton of fun with people round the table but.. as a PC game it is too confusing for simpler fun, too lacking for more demanding audiences.

Oh, I may have spoken too soon in my earlier comment - while the campaigns are depressingly similar, the skirmish mode does contain most (if not all) of the cards from the base game, at least.

You really should have made all the cards from the base game unlockable, and then kept the expansions as purchaseable with Kreds. As it is, people won't see any variety in the game (which is the entire draw of a game like Thunderstone or Dominion - it being different every time) and won't be interested in playing it more. I was excited to see this on the site, and hope more publishers sponsor Flash versions of board/card games in the future, but you have to work on your implementation.

For those who are complaining about VP - VP *is* secret, and is intended to be. Not precisely knowing whether or not you're in the best position to end the game by capturing the Thunderstone is part of the game.

I just finished the campaign...and thats all??...no new cards for completing it?...no other campaign unlocked?...sorry but this i not a free game at all...this is a demo of a game. This should not be in kongregate but in steam. 1/5

is there any way to earn new cards apart of cash payment?..if NO then i'll lower my rating. I accept payment for better cards, but allways play with starter is just boring.

True: VPs should be more visible, both mine and my oponents.
Tutorial needs more work, i find it a little confusing.
Card stats need to be clarified, what is attack?..what is health?...what are all those numbers.
If the details are reworked, the game is original, a new twist on ccgs.
Another question is that me and my oponent just make a race, and i cant play cards to slow him or attack him directly..right?
right now 3/5 and could be more.

Am I missing something? Why can't I see my and my opponent's VP? I have to keep a manual tally?... It's not like it's a secret -- the VP is shown on the cards.
