For the price, it’s a nice Chess game with a charming personality and nice music and aesthetics. I feel like the tune will be stuck in my head tomorrow. Lots of cool fun facts about the games you’re solving. I only encountered one bug where the text glitched out, but it wasn’t a big problem.

Cardnarok: Raid with Gods

Cardnarok: Raid with Gods

Been looking around for some indie games and found this little gem. I love the theme and ideas behind this game especially with the choices of heroes from mythologies of all backgrounds.

The combat definitely requires strategical thinking, planning and careful calculation in order to level up fast and build decks that work with your team. At current state it’s quite playable and no bug that bricks the game experience.

The developers have been patching updates aggressively and that is a good sign.

Interesting take on the genre

The core loop is:

  • a string of StS-like maps

  • connected by a monopoly/Game of the Goose-inspired overworld

  • coupled with Rogue-lite Metaprogression

The combat is pretty standard with the caveat of 3 characters (with somewhat varying abilities) in “tag-team”

The Deckbuilding part follow the newer trend and allow the player a high degree of control over the resulting deck

Overall the game could use more polish and some extra content, but it’s a solid buy if you’re a bored deckbuilder.

I didn’t like this quite as much as Combination Lessons. Some of it felt too similar to the material already covered. That said, is it worth the time & money to buy and play this one? Oh absolutely heck yes. You definitely want to get and play both if you play Chess.

What would I like to see more of? Bot.vinnik opening moves & mid-game strategies. I need these to exist.

Not gonna lie here: presentation is awful, but hell if this isn’t a GREAT game to learn more about chess. I was seriously and very pleasantly caught off guard by this one.

VERY recommended for chess amateurs and veterans alike, it’ll teach you some chess concepts and present you with situations that’ll help you think 2-3 moves in advance and hopefully improve your board vision and playstyle, definitely the kind of thing every chess enthusiast should look into.

BOT.vinnik Chess: Opening Traps

BOT.vinnik Chess: Opening Traps

Moves a bunch of pieces around the board very quickly without giving you much time to take in what is happening on the board, nor explaining why, tells you it’s a popular move (which one? all of them? black or white?). Then demands you “Find the BEST move!”. Well that depends doesn’t it? What am I trying to achieve? So I start moving what ‘I think’ is the best move. Nope, that was wrong and it doesn’t mind telling you in no uncertain terms. I try another. Wrong again! Only this time i’m being patronised. WTH?! Instead of berating me for getting it wrong, tell me what my objective is and explain why moving a certain piece is preferable over moving another. I might actually learn something useful within Chess and not what a waste of oxygen I am.
