Quantum Protocol
PROS
-
Game is incredibly cheap for the sheer amount of entertainment it offers.
-
The gameplay is completely unique and will feel both fresh and familiar if you’ve played YGO or other TCGs.
-
Everything from visuals to music to UI hit a very good standard that lets it blend in the background as you play.
-
The game still receives frequent update with a developer very receptive to feedback.
CONS
-
Learning an entirely new set of skills can feel a little arduous at the start.
-
The ‘fail until you succeed’ logic surrounding the game can make things feel a tad hopeless.

Full Disclosure: I received a copy of the game to playtest during development. You can even fine me in the credits as “SaruRoku”!
Quantum Protocol is first and foremost, a Cardgame, with a story that’s presented in a visual novel style.
The visual novel elements do string along a fun, but mostly lighthearted story, without any of the “choices” that would make a visual novel game, but they do provide levity and a change of pace after most stages, as well as giving you some insight to the various characters who’s decks each follow their own themes.

Monster Monpiece
Monster Monpiece is a highly flawed card game that still manages to be enjoyable.
The core gameplay is pretty solid. You get 3 Mana every turn, and you can use this Mana to play one of the cards in your hand (all creature cards) each round, placing it onto a small board. The goal of each battle is to get your monster girls across the board and into the enemy HQ, which will cause the unit to be lost but the enemy to take one point of damage. Typically, three points of damage will defeat your opponent. The enemy AI is extremely stupid and quite predictable, so the game usually compensates for that by giving it superior cards.

Monster Monpiece, or as I’ve come to call it, maybe another month’ll do it because this game can’t be played all at once without losing your sanity. That’s a bit of a mouthful though, so we’ll shorten it to “unless you really like card games and monster girls, you can skip this one.”
Alright, that wasn’t much better, but my point is this game drags on for way too long for how little depth there is to it. After the first few battles you have basically mastered the game, from there the only thing that changes is getting new cards that do new things that the old cards might not have done, or they do better, or etc etc card game mechanics until you realize two things. Nothing matters but the main stat which is used to summon a card, and that skipping the first few turns has 0 downside and lets you stack your hand to summon whatever you want anyway. Unfortunate first hand draw, didn’t get a 3 mana monster, doesn’t really matter cause next turn you can draw one of those 4, 5, 6 cards anyway. To help you understand, this would be like Yugi summoning Dark Magician on his second turn, it’s really dumb, and it’s how the game is actually played. The second thing you learn that makes almost any other card in the game irrelevant, is that some cards get a + mana bonus, in particular, they tend to give mana when you summon them, and when they are destroyed. Whenever you first get access to a card with this (Nekomata), the game completely changes because you skip your first turn, summon nekomata, she casts her ability to give 3 mana, instantly dies to whatever monster you put her in front of, on your 3rd turn now you have basically 3x as much mana as you would have in any other battle up until this point. From there you stack your deck with Nekomatas, and congrats you have beaten the game. Also don’t bother with healers or buffers, they are just dead weight in comparison to putting another combat ready card on the map that can stand on it’s own, seriously, you might think that’s just a min-max kind of statement, but no really, it just works out like that with how the game is built.

Tournament Ark
(tl;dr version: Check back in when Early Access is over.)
This game has a sizable amount of polish issues- from areas of the game which should allow you to check your deck, but don’t, to a sometimes rough interface, to the bizarre fact that there’s never a “back” button in areas where it’d be expected, to the fact that there isn’t an input delay set after a match end (meaning you might accidentally click on a post-match event selection while trying to click through the end of the match). The game also has some longevity issues that’d be easily remedied with just a bit more late-game gameplay customization options, as well as some significant balance issues.

I’ve been playing this game since i found it in Itch.io and all i can say is that it’s extremely adictive and there’s so many different options that each run is completly different and unique. The game itself is a Slay the spire-like game with easy to learn but hard to master mechanics. What makes the game so enjoyable is the combination of both different backstories and archetypes which give a rather diverse gameplay and strategies. If you like cardbased roguelikes like Slay the Spire you’re gonna love this game

Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist
TLDR:
Objectively speaking, if you want to play Yugioh in 2020 (or beyond) don’t buy this game since it is the now “outdated” version. You probably want the version called Yugioh Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution . That version is updated to the latest Master Rule 5 where you can Link Summon and also you are no longer limited to summoning from the extra deck to only the monster zones that are pointed to by Link Monsters.

Here I am again, for one more review!
A past few weeks ago some people did asked me to post my review about this
game that it is one of my favorites (not to say the most) since I have been
playing it (the TCG format) profissionaly back to 2008-2009 and 2011-2015.
Yu-gi-oh, as far as I remember have always been an inspiration in my life:
teamwork, friendship, hope, courage, determination, respect, honor… some
of the aspects I’ve learned from this franchise since 1998 that influenced
me to pursue my dreams and realize what I most want. I even decided,

Eternal Destiny
Fun game, not perfect, but worth checking out.
Gameplay: : 3.5/5
The game is rather simple for a trading card game, but there are many strategies that are viable for non-competitive modes. Unfortunately, the gameplay is not perfectly balanced, leaving some strategies much easier to use than others; however, despite some strategies being better, it is still fun making various decks to fight with.
Unlike many recent card games, this game does not have an automatic battle mode where you simply play the cards and the game decides on the moves. Instead, you are in charge of many different aspects from whether a card attacks or uses a skill to even what you attack. In a defense state, you have little control if a card is attacked directly, but if the player is attacked, you may choose to defend with a specific card or not at all.

Not really much of a review writer, but since I do enjoy this game and it has so little reviews, I feel a bit bad for it.
Honestly, it’s a pretty simple strategy as far as some other card games go, BUT, the developers are still working on adding some more of the harder content still. Out of the 600+ cards the game has, I want to say as of May 2nd, you are currently able to collect maybe 300, 350. Which, honestly is fine right now, since it might be a little too overwhelming to have all that content. Think of a classic freemium game, now remove any timers and cooldowns, and no real money transcations.

Shadowverse CCG
I come from a very strict family, and I always like card games, especially the Japanese ones.
But, my parents always get angry at me for wasting my money at these real form card games.
Not after this game was Introduced to me few months later from a feed on my social media where some weebs shown off their legendary card gacha pack.
I was intrigued by it and search it from google, and I found this hidden gem. The moment after passing the tutorial, I already fallen in love with the game.
But I was a bit too late, since it’s already on Darkness Evolved expansion pack and I’m missing many free stuffs. Nevertheless, I still enjoy playing the game until this day..

This CCG has its own cancer deck(s) of course, but it’s still good enough to recommend, since my experience is: a tiny bit of frustration, which quickly goes away, and a whole bunch of fun, that you won’t forget any time soon. Most of the following is very subjective, so that’s an other reason to try the game, but of course reading different opinions might help you decide if the game is for you, so here we go! (I’ll try to stay objective, where I can. Tl;dr: check the “OVERVIEW” part.)

Not Another Dungeon?!
I have played this game for quite some time now, and it had me hooked for a good time, the gameplay loop is fun, i really like the easier quests to contrast the harder achviements, i have been working on getting all achivements for a while now, but i sadly don’t have that much time anymore to try and get them all, but i can usually get a run or two in occasionally. It’s a nice break. If there is one thing i’d complain about is that one achivement that i don’t have is a bit of a grind but it’s not that bad when you can consistantly get to the top. All in all it’s a fun game, i recommend this game to people who like Roguelite Card games. Looking forward for updates in the future.
