First things first: if you don't like Gwent or card battling games in general, I wouldn't waste time with this game. This isn't for you. For the rest of you, however, the game is a very intriguing combination of isometric overworld RPG and Gwent battles. The overworld portions are a bit boring ("managing resources" is just collecting stray pieces of wood and currency on the map), but the choices you must make during critical moments are fun and interesting, though sometimes what your character, Meve, ends up doing isn't clearly indicated by the choice text. The battle are just Gwent, sometimes with some spoken dialogue, sometimes in the form of a puzzle during which you must use the correct sequence of moves to solve. I cannot recommend this game right now, however, as it is SERIOUSLY buggy. The game will freeze during load screens, leaving you stuck until you forcibly quit the game. Or, the game will freeze after you end a turn during a match, leaving you stuck until you forcibly quit the game. For Gwent or Witcher fans, I would hold off purchasing this title until these game-breaking bugs are finally ironed out.
