Abandon Ship
Version 0.5.something…
It’s… Okay.
A lot of it is very comfortable fun. You find yourself a combat, you watch your little micro managed crew and you snot your enemy. It’s fun in a non challenging sense. You buy 6 crew as quickly as possible, keep them alive with a bit of micro management and use the play style that amuses you most at the time. Simple really. Learning curve is a bit steep at the start but flattens out after a few combats.
The rest of the game at this stage of it’s release? Yeah…

So the first major update hit, Treasures of the Deep, it wasn’t as big of a shift as compared to pre-release builds versus the first EA build. The update itself is not an expansion per say, but more of a refinement to what we already had, aside the two new mechanics that count, you could say that there are more, but it boils down to just two major ones(more on that later).
Here’s the run down of the refinement from when I last edited the review:
-Improved fps on not so amazing computers
-Plenty of bug fixes

Endless Voyage / 无尽航线
Changed review from Thumbs Up to Thumbs Down.
2.4/5 Card battler. Fantasy with guns and bombs. This would be a pretty great game if it didn’t have language errors in the UI and didn’t have the bugs. The default language is Mandarin and it’s a wiitel complicated to get to an English UI in this game.
The Good:
-
B-to-A quality card battler
-
Pretty good graphics, cute.
-
Decent cards and mechanics
-
Value: I got this for $10 and it’s a fine game for 10 USD.
The Bad:
- The game’s tutorials are terrible. If one makes single mistake, you have to replay a dozen stupid battles. That’s not a tutorial, that’s just punishment.

These are the fun stuff:
1. The idea of building a"squad" is fun. Some combos are fun to execute.
2. Decent stage design. You always get 3 options, which gives flexibility in how you play the game.
3. Certain builds are fun.
These are the issues:
1. Once in a while resolution will be messed up and fixing it take eternity.
2. Game never updates. No new cards/characters/modes being added ever since I purchased this game.
3. Game is fun at the beginning, but once you reach higher levels, you will realize that there are only one or two playable builds. Other build will either become frustratingly bad with higher enemy HP or hard stuck on certain types of enemies.
