About Slayers Hidden Moon:
It’s a fun game and I’ve certainly enjoyed my 20+ hours with it on the whole but the deck strategy does not satisfy. You would expect different optimal setups for each of the 12 different classes but no, it always boils down to reduce your deck size to a minimum of cards that draw another and maximise damage. You don’t get to build interesting decks that are based around a theme or anything like that. It is just cycle cards, cycle cards, cycle cards constantly and it gets dry fast. If you enjoy something that’s not terribly well balanced and running small tight hands over varied strategies then sure go for it, but if you are into tabletop games like Legendary then I would skip this. At its heart Monster Slayers is a rogue-like adventure, but the addition of deck-building and RPG features makes it even more compelling. The game opens with you creating a custom character who can be either a rogue, ranger, knight, barbarian, cleric, wizard or a more advanced class. Combat is very simple and you begin each battle with three randomly selected cards from your deck. The amount you can use depend on your available action points and, in the case of magical spells, your mana. Bring your opponents health down to zero before they do the same to you and you reap the rewards in the form of experience points and loot.However, thanks to the charming visuals, stellar audio and fun gameplay, this is a game you can easily lose yourself in for hours.
