This game plays a bit like FTL, Hearthstone, but in much better-realised setting and with more advanced mechanics. There is no question that it is difficult and sometimes random events or particular enemy compositions will waylay your caravan's progress, but that's the beauty of having asymmetrical factions. And speaking of beauty, the art in the game is gorgeous, as is the soundtrack. Given that it was made by a single dev over the course of 5 years, it's clearly a labour of love and the dev continues to support it with updates and balance tweaks. In this game your cards are "followers" on their way to "nowhere" with you as their prophet. And they can die meaning the card is destroyed and is removed from your deck for the rest of the journey. Of course, there are ways to obtain new followers, but still, it's a neat way to make you care about your deck a bit more and maybe not rush your decisions as much. Personally, I love this feature and how it fits in with the rest of the game world - some followers are disposable drifters, others - the backbone of the caravan. It's great.
