Golem Gates
An overall good game, with a few flaws
Pros:
-pretty good balance. A few units do feel mandatory to have, but almost all cards at least have an interesting way to be used, and even the “mandatory” ones are such just because of them being the best thing to find in the early game, without being overpowered in any way.
-game is generous with glyphs (read: cards), and every mission you play feels rewarding
-Nice story, even if its sadly a rather short one, but it does keep you engaged in during the campaign as you try to find answers to what the hell is going on, answers that you DO get

I was quite sceptical of the concept Golem Gates presented at first. Although I’ve competitively played and made money off of various different card games and really liked the general idea, adding elements from them to a RTS is a risky move, and I knew from the start that this game could crash and burn, starting from it’s core. My scepticism might have been called for, but what Golem Gates actually became is something working and wonderful. Since it’s a given that the devs will still polish a lot before 1.0 release, in this review I’m not going to touch small details that don’t really affect the core experience of the game.

Minion Masters
Let me start by saying that this game is so rigged, manipulative and can be dangerous to people with gambling problems or really bad O. C. D. so, people with less self-control should not be playing this game in my honest opinion.
You can play solo in 1v1, with random people in 2v2 Team Battle, with a friend in a Premade Team Battle, in Guild Premade Battle or create custom matches. You can also purchase Adventures to play against AIs that try too hard to make you feel like the game has a story. You can always Challenge same bots to try out different decks and your new experiments before playing against real players. I must say that this game is not Pay-to-Win in any way as of now, which is great but I did spend a lot of money on it, mostly for cosmetics.

Early Access V 0.9.1
Before we start I got a game key for free during alpha but since Early access I bought the premium upgrade at the same price as all new players since early access launch because currently premium upgrade includes in all new purchases.
The game revolves in the Forced universe. Betadwarf has made two prior games, Forced and Forced Showdown. I have played extensivly Forced Showdown and had alot of fun with it. WIth that in mind I had very high hopes for betadwarfs third game, Minion Masters.

Guardian Chronicle
Chronically addictive tower defence!
An easy recommendation to fans of tower defence games.
✅ Engaging game play.
✅ Varied ‘towers’.
❌ Very limited maps per season.
❌ Balancing issues.
❌ No single player content.
As a tower defence fan I can safely say that Guardian Chronicles dug it’s claws in to me deep!
The core game play involves you choosing a roster of guardians that act as towers, each with their own skills and abilities and placing them on select tiles to thwart waves of enemies.
What makes Guardian Chronicles interesting and engaging is the merge system. To get more powerful towers you have to replace two matching towers of the same level together. The spanner in the works however, is the towers are drawn randomly from your pool of selected heroes but you see the next five draws allowing you to plan ahead. coupled with tower abilities based on positioning this helps keep games engaging from start to finish.

Pros: Its a fun tower defense game with pve/pvp content. There are many deck combinations to use. Its very fun to play to kill time. Its not very toxic either
Cons: It is pay to win you will lose to someone who is dropping money. Later in game progression is much slower when you try leveling up your cards. Example at you will need 4000 cards of a specific card just to level it up and it will cost an absurd amount of in game gold
Despite the cons its very fun to play if your playing casually. You can earn alot of gold if you do well in the pve and pvp part of the game. Events change every often giving you great chances to earn rewards for free. Not much you can do about p2w players you will lose until you’ve put int enough time to get at least 3 cards to max level and use a proper deck but its very easy to pick up. I play this game casually i just do the dailies and events and log out. So far iv enjoyed myself so if you have nothing better to do or want something to play in the backround while you do other things like watching a movie or something idk then give this game a shot it wont hurt you. I wouldnt put money into it though

the game doesnt even work!

** Not sure what language this was made in, but do not buy if you plan to play in English**
No worthwhile tutorial, very very poor translation means card mechanics are a complete mystery with cards acting in bizarre fashion.. sometimes doing one thing, sometimes not doing anything at all. The performance is also pretty bad. I can’t really figure out any mechanics that work properly.
A shame because there is a lack of non-p2w card games out there.

Runeverse: Sea Brawls
The best designed autobattler by far. Minimal RNG that can be easily mitigated with good play, extremely good balance between the factions (every faction can truly beat every other faction) and the developers are lightning fast in taking aboard feedback and correcting any issues with the game. For anyone who likes this genre of games, this is a must play.

I love this game, i played it back when it was a beta mode in another card game they had, then decided to make it its own standalone game which is awesome. Used to be extremely buggy and barely playable. Although. as time went buy the developers would listen to their players and fix all the bugs and stabilize the game. Which made this game amazing and really fun to play. Constant updates and they love hearing suggestions and taking them to consideration.
