Rogue Mage is a rogue-like which the story is very short but still compelling. There are plenty of cards that players needs to repeat playing again and again in order to acquire those cards. This is a repetitive and seems tough in the first few runs but once when players gain more special cards then it is easier. To control this, CDPR adds some penalties to make the game harder which eventually extremely hard. The games is fun and I quite very enjoy but there are a lot of bugs e.g. Istredd draw more than your library then you have to put that many cards back which in Gwent this has been fixed. I wish CDPR allows players to mod the game. Adding more boss nodes or customize the starter deck would be nice.
Despite that Gwent is no longer updated due to CDPR leave the game in hand of community. There is still a monthly simple balance patch which still make the game fresh. it's their own sophisicate game mechanic which is fun, intense, competitive and truly free. Players can collect all cards, I mean all without even spend any money. However, players can purchase battle pass (called Journey) to make the progress faster and earn some very cool cosmetics (I brought all). Even in 2024 or 2025, you can still play Gwent and very enjoy the game. Card Arts are beautiful as well. Try it!!
