OK game, nice theme, shoddyish execution
I really like the theme and animations of Neurodeck, but I may indeed have same bias for mental health related stuff due to my personal background. I also believe Neurodeck works best in short one run dips. Think working in a home office, eating lunch, and enjoying a bit of Neurodeck afterwards while waiting for the lunch to digest. The game is relatively light and there's just enough of unlocking stuff for future runs to carry the game for a week or two in once a day session schedule. That being said, I am also a dude that has played my fair share of deckbuilders... on physical tables, online, offline, socially, and all by my lonesome. One might even say that I like deckbuilders. And within the context of all the deckbuilders I've ever played... Neurodeck is light to play, easy to learn, half decently balanced, and absolutely outshone by a metric crapton of competitors. From a purely technical point of view, I'm also wondering why on earth is a 3-years old game showing minor elements of shoddy scaling and weirdly low resolution renders on the otherwise competently executed animations. Why...? Just why?
