"Whiled away many hours already with this"

date: September 3, 2008

Normally I don't go in for these sort of card based games, but in this case I have found the exception to the rule. I really like this game! The new graphics are excellent and I would fully anticipate a new version. Gameplay excellent, music fantastic. All round winner in my book. Thank you for bringing this to us.

"I wish there were more intelligent games like this"

date: September 1, 2008

I'm not stupid. I know the artwork was replaced for copywright reasons and until that's rectified, We're just going to have to appreaciate what has been contributed.

If you don't like the artwork, I suggest you do better yourself. After all, it's purely cosmetic thing.
What matters is the gameplay, which has improved since the last version. I like howq 'Taint' can go above '2' for example. It's handy for when the adversary is Invulnrable.

This game has massive potentials for improvement despite being amazing now. I only recently discovered Lovercraft myself and as a result, whenever I read about things mentioned in the game, it evolves my understanding.

(PS: On the nerw 'Blackmail' card, the picture on the bottom right hand corner is actually Lovercraft. I saw the image on another site)

"Excellent Game!"

by: UTIOM
date: August 31, 2008

I think this game is great! I have no complaints whatsoever. Personally I am a little bummed about thne art those pictures were awsome but, some of the newer ones aren't bad and it keeps the game interesting to have them chane=ge once in a while. So far I only make it to eldar deep one or something like that at like 12 or 13 I think. Im not sure if you are supposed to skip ranks but I skipped a couple like necromancer and another one. Seriously for a flash game OMG!! It's great stuff and I thank you for making this game because I play it almost every day =)

"Awsome game!"

It's just too bad about the art. If you fix the art I'm sure most of the reviews will change!

"Some balancing needed imho"

by: plaxo
date: August 29, 2008

After playing this lil game way to much I'd say some balance will make it more addicting perhaps. The goal of my comments is to extend play. I rarely get past
"Cult Initiate" rank (I think that's the name) mostly because of the reasons listed below. I'd like to get past this rank about 1 in 3 games or so. So even if I get unlucky in cards, if I keep playing I'll eventually get a couple good hands and progress.

1. "Arcane Power" needs to be capped (relates to #2 below). Maybe base cap on current character Rank?

2. The "Dispel" card needs to drop a bit more. Most of my games end with the opponent drawing a damage+Arcane Power card with it's Arcane Power rank at +8 or higher...it's not "fun" to get instant dead when your health is over 20+ with a single hit. A cap on Arcane Power would help with this too.

3. Some counter to an Elder Sign rank that's so high that it's nearly impossible to damage the opponent without a card that ignores Elder Sign defense or the Dispel card. Maybe subtract Elder Sign values so it works more like a shield + shield reduction? So for example if I have and Elder Sign rank of 2 and the opponent has an Elder Sign rank of 3 my ranks cancel out the opponenets ranks leaving the opponent with an Elder Sign rank of 1.

4. It would be nice to sacrifice Sanity or Life to boost one another. So if my Life is getting hammered but I have plenty of Sanity I can steal from my Sanity pool to bump my Life up and vice-versa. Maybe a 2 to 1 ratio on Sanity to Life buys...so sacrificing 2 Sanity nets you 1 Life and sacrificing 1 Life nets you 2 Sanity?

So if any of those ideas helps me progress and not get stuck at a certain rank I'd rate this game higher for sure.

Just some ideas... :)

Fun Game!

"what the hell"

date: August 29, 2008

happened with your game?
Some cards don't have images, you start a game whitout life (it doesn't appear) and this morning it doesn't even load??!!!
And the cards look stupid, why for the sake of GOD did you change the art?
You are destroying what was in my opinion a masterpiece.

Author's Response:

Had no choice - either no art, or no game at all.

Previous art was sourced from a real card game, so had to be removed - all art is being replaced in time.
