  Pros: 1. Awesome performance 2. UNCENSORED 3. Works well even when mining Cons: 1. No Multiplayer - Ok i can handle that 2. ONLINE SHOP - WHAT?!?!?! It asks you to pay for cards on a SINGLE PLAYER ONLY game! So its either grind out the cards or pay for them! That is too low and greedy. This alone is earning it the Thumbs Down and refund. When they made an effort to remove content by cutting out Multiplayer then they could have made an effort including those packs as a sure drop when battling bosses like normal SP games. I will be downvoted for sure but I just don't like to support any game that has a paywall on a SP only game. If we allow things like this then I fear for the future of OUR games Just to clarify - I am NOT saying this as a whole is a bad game. It was actaully good\fun for me with the first few games I tried and I might have continued to play the game and be merry I am simply pointing out that I dislike making us pay to get cards faster which IMO was due to it having Multiplayer but since they cut out that content I would have expected that the game should have been updated reflecting that change ________________________________

  I bought this game in a sale for 3,99€ and i really enjoyed my time playing the game. If you are uncertain if you should buy this game, I hope my review can help you decide. [h1] Story [/h1] The story is quite interesting for the beginning at least, after that it kinda lost its way by repeating stuff and too much forced exposition. [h1] Gameplay [/h1] You have 30 to 40 cards in your deck and start with 5 or 6 cards in your hand each match depending on if you start first or second. Each round you get 3 Mana which you can use to play your cards. You can get extra mana by special abilities from your cards or by playing cards of the same "Aura" in subsequent turns. You are restricted to play 1 card per turn. After you summon your card it is out of your control. This brings a nice balance of being in and out of control. I found this to be very unique and I didn't see any other card game taking the control of your monsters away after you summon them. The gameplay hooked me the most in this game. It is satisfying, strategic and succeeds being unique. [h1] Characters [/h1] Most characters were pretty good, like May, Fia and Elza. Then there were the really obnoxious characters, like your teacher or the villain. [h1] Art [/h1] A lot original and well drawn artworks. Over 50 different illustrators worked on the cards so there are a lot of variations in style and technique. [h1] Microtransactions [/h1] Pretty useless actually. I bought one for the luls 0.99€. The cards were not particularly stronger and I got them a little later in the game anyway. So you don't need to worry that you miss out on anything by not purchasing these tempting named card packs. Super Rare Card Pack Plus 3rd, was the one I bought I believe, in all caps of course lul. [h1] Multiplayer [/h1] The Multiplayer got removed in the PC port. feelsbadman.png

  This company is pretty money grubbing. For a card game to have an additional online store is probably not uncommon, but it is something that leaves a bad taste in one's mouth after one has already had to pay to buy the game in the first place. I very much disapprove of such behaviour in a game company. If this game were free to play that might make more sense. Another thing I have issue with is the card power up system "Rub", in which you spend farmed/grinded points to activate, but sometimes the "power up" turns out to be a loss of an important ability or a drop in stats or increase in cost as well, or a mix of any of the above, and there's no way to undo the effect if you dislike what was done, meaning the loss of use of a potentially extremely rare card. Aside from that I enjoyed the gameplay, The music is not horrid, but doesn't stand out either. The Voice acting is good and they should be praised for that much. Storywise though it feels often like the character's behaviours and thought processes are a bit forced and could be described as "archetype simpletons" and illogical and poorly thought out plot twists that makes the characters seem more like ditzes incapable of basic problem solving. There is a noticeable lack of story elements like foreshadowing, plot devices, rivals etc.. it makes me expect a failure of a deus ex machina even though I haven't gotten through the story line yet. The main character and her companions lack of intelligent thought processes and the uninteresting dialogue is also really hard to stomach, to the point I might stop proceeding with this game. I'm tempted to try and explain further but at least one spoiler would be necessary. I can't be 100% certain but the game's world seems to be 100% females, or matriarchal and all the males are conspicuously absent. I don't know if compile heart just didn't have the heart to put an actual writer into this but it is quite a sad jumble considering the effort that was put into the art and graphics. Overall Rating: 3.8/10 Story: 1/10 Characters: 1/10 Gameplay: 6/10 Artwork: 7/10 Music: 4/10

  Okay so I bought this from a sale, so I didn't lose too much. I can't recommend this game. The gameplay (what there is of it) consists of you playing a subpar card game where you summon creatures using your cards onto a battlefield where your goal is to destroy your enemy's castle before they destroy yours. Its rather dull. The big feature of this game is that you level up your cards by "rubbing" them with your mouse (or controller). Originally this was a game for mobile(Turns out it was PS Vita / PSP instead of mobile, handheld device anyway) where this rubbing made more sense. The spots where you are supposed to rub are often in incomprehensible places and you are working under a time limit, making it quite the challenge. This would be alright if you could just try again, but you can't. Every time you want to rub your cards (I can't believe I'm writing all this by the way) it costs currency. This currency is rare and hard to find. You end up having to backtrack and farm the dull card game without progressing in the story for unreasonable periods of time, because your card power matters a lot. I don't usually recommend using cheats, but this time around I don't see any other option. I did some research and apparently you can get infinite resources, allowing you to focus more on the story (if that's what interests you) and less on the combat and rubbing. I wont say how - you can figure that out yourself. The other option is to open your purse and buy the resources with real money. Please don't do this. It isn't worth it. Edit: Apparently you can't buy the resources on PC, but I didn't test this myself. I can't recommend this game. The art on the cards is nice, though.

  I played this game all the way through and put a lot of time into it. While I did get enjoyment out of it, there's a few caveats that avoid an actual recommendation. Keep in mind that while this is a PC port of a PS Vita game, I'm going to view this from the perspective of a PC game because that's what's asking twenty bucks out of you. 1. The difficulty curve is really strange. There were only three places, really, where I was forced to level up, get in-game packs, and build or revise a deck. These moments go from breezing through without much work to immediately getting the floor introduced to your face the very next non-boss match. But, unlike regular card games that are paper-rock-scissors type things, here there isn't really a meta way to beat your opponent. A better deck will simply beat a worse deck, regardless of the strategy. 2. Speaking of making decks, your card pool comes from packs and one-offs granted for exploring. But instead of putting more difficult to use or unusual strategy cards in later unlocked packs, later unlocked packs contain 'Strictly Better' cards. This means early packs simply cannot create a viably good deck (despite the rubbing level up mechanic). 3. Now I mentioned strategy, and there are cards with abilities to expand beyond the Healer/Buffer + Melee/Ranged paradigm. There are skills that play with the rules and are honestly pretty fun, leaving you making choices. I have two 5 drops, one has better base stats but the other has the intercept skill. This is great. But then they introduce abilities as another aspect to these choices and it just falls apart. The problem is that the abilities are pretty situtational and usually needs tweaking your deck for synergy (often at the expense of a 'Strictly Better' deck), and extremely situational against your opponent. At least the AI doesn't cheat: they have abilities and usually it's no big deal (stuff goes off and nothing of consequence happens) and not enough to overcome a good deck. 4. The deck and card power situation leads to a game where there are a ton of fights that aren't at all interesting. The real interest is from Ex mode fights where you cripple yourself (or boost your opponent) for a bigger challenge. But this isn't because of superior strategy, it's because you're tweaking the numbers. An enemy that starts with huge mana or earns more than double your mana per turn makes things harder, but ultimately it comes down to a better deck, not a better strategy. 5. Big problem, then, is that you can't really grind in this game. Your money, rub points, inventory, and claimed rewards are "persistent". Once you buy packs, open them, and don't get what you want, it's too late. Same thing with rubbing. If you rub a monster girl and don't like her next stage, tough. If you fail rubbing her the right way, you lose the points, tough. 6. There are microtransactions. Huge minus, especially when the persistent state of the game makes it possible to screw yourself if luck isn't on your side. This leaves two options, one to buy your way out or reset data and hope for the best in the next grind. I was able to finish the game without paying anything extra, but I don't know if it was because I was lucky. 7. The translation is pretty iffy. A lot of those abilities are very difficult to read because they don't seem to be written very well. The Fear card is obviously the Fia character, so this might be a pretty persistent problem. 8. The game doesn't make good use of screen real estate. When abilities fire, the description flashes on the screen but it's just an abbreviation of what it affects that doesn't really make sense and doesn't really seem consistent. There are some rendering bugs like the Monster Monpiece background in the shops and save menus. The graphics are also very plain, there are only four different models for the field in three levels of dress. While the card art is gorgeous, the 3d models are just phoned in. 9. The cards in the game are uncensored, but it's impossible to actually complete your collection. There are some exclusive DLC cards that are simply not obtainable in-game. Somehow it is still kind of fun. Sometimes I end a match thinking "just one more" but it's not a really deep and well thought experience. This is showcased with the Ex mode that puts a limit on the amount of time you can spend to take a turn. At it's hardest, it left me with 10 seconds but I never felt like I had to agonize over a play more than just a few seconds. The cheesecake is definitely nice, with some interesting variety in art. The low system requirements make it perfectly suitable to play while Folding or on a GPDWin. Ultimately, this game has more cons than pros and, picking either recommend or not, I'd have to side with not. Definitely not at the asking price, but if there's a deep discount during a sale it would be worth checking out.

  First, the good: This version is uncensored, which importantly respects the artistic integrity of the game. The art itself is well-done, and pleasant to look at, although not as risque as some players may hope for from an uncensored game with both the "Sexual Content" and "Nudity" tags. I haven't completed the story, for reasons I'll explain later. But, I found the portion I did experience to be interesting, although not complex, with some mystery to keep players guessing and a nice variety of characters to keep it fun. The card battle gameplay is simple, but offers a surprising amount of strategic and tactical depth. Monster girls move and act automatically, except when they're not allowed to. Careful placement of monster girls can manipulate whether or not they're allowed to move and how well they coordinate their actions, potentially earning you free attacks. In deck building, you can gain special advantages by including many cards of the same color or monster family, but beyond a certain point, doing so requires including weaker versions of cards (to get around the 3 card limit), offering interesting strategic tradeoffs. Now, the bad: Every problem I have with this game relates to how players improve their card collection. Aside from a nice variety of monster girls, each monster girl also has multiple versions. Cards can be transformed into different versions (with more scantily clad artwork), and there are also power tiers on cards indicated by +1, +2, etc. Card transformation occurs through a minigame themed around strengthening bonds through erotic play. When cards transform, they generally become more powerful, but sometimes they become weaker in some ways as well, making the choice of which version(s) to use more interesting. However, the minigame is the one place where the fact this is a console port becomes glaringly obvious. The card image doesn't fit on the screen, and you have to use a gamepad to scroll a cursor, even if you use the mouse to pinch/rub/etc., and the only part of the image that reacts is the face, which is often off-screen. Basically, the minigame is not fun at all, and just feels like a waste of time, but there is an option to autoplay through it. The bigger problem is the +1/+2 tiered card system. The +1 cards completely outclass the standard cards, meaning that to continue progressing you have to either grind or pay real money for microtransactions and hope to get higher-tiered cards from booster packs in order to proceed with the story. This would be understandable in a free-to-play game, but not in a buy-to-play game. To add insult to injury, once you need to start using higher-tiered cards, any effort you may have spent improving your collection up to that point feels completely wasted. This ruined the game for me, and is why I must reluctantly give a thumbs-down review.

  Look.. elsewhere for a grind. This used to be multiplayer, now it's not. Guess what remained? The ability to buy card decks in an in game store with real money. Overall Review: DEATH BY SINGLEPLAYER MICRO-TRANSACTIONS... Absolutely not.

  First off the game is uncensored, so yay for that! Now, there is some confusion over the cash shop being in the game. Yes it's there, and some have gotten it to work, but the important thing to point out is that the cash shop packs can be aquired for 1g in game currency after the main campaign has been completed, it looks more like something left in because it would be more work to properly remove it than an actual attempt at P2W, which admittedly was attempted in the vita version. Also, voice pack DLC has been included in the game.
