Fun but Flawed
This is the first Steamworld game that I played. In terms of a deck building game, it's pretty average. You're limited to 8 cards per character and vulnerabilities and resistances are common, so you really have to pay attention to what you're carrying into a fight. The game world is somewhat elementary, the humor a bit too on the nose, and the characters very cliche, but it all comes together in an entertaining way. I've been enjoying my playthrough for the most part, but there are some glaring flaws in the UI design and game mechanics that make me wonder whether or not the dev team playtested it at all. The UI itself is horrendous. It's like they didn't know whether to make the game touchscreen friendly, all mouse-only, or all keyboard-only. The result is a horrible experience where a lot of the interactions don't make sense. One example is in the menu, right clicking takes you to back a screen, which is annoying when you're deck building and right click a card to remove it only to exit the deck screen. There are also inconsistencies like switching between heroes in the game world is Q/E but Page Up/Down (?!?) in the deck building screen. Who uses Page Up/Down when playing a M&KB game? And then there's the gameplay itself. By default, you can only have 6 cards max with 2 redraw cards per round. Each turn, you draw back up to 6 cards. It you didn't play any last turn, you draw nothing. Some cards require energy, which is generated by playing basic cards. Without basic cards or energy, you can only redraw 2 cards or end the turn. The problem arises when two of the three members of your party go down and their cards are stuck in your hand. You can't play them and trying to redraw basic cards for the live character is unlikely, which means certain TPK in a big fight. A simple discard system or free energy when you don't play any cards would have been an obvious solution. I could say so much more but I hit the review character limit. Only buy this on a deep discount.
