Age of Enchantment

Tl;dr The foundation is there but it really lacks the content. I got this game after quite enjoying the demo and wanting for more. Yet sadly I was rather disappointed by the lack of this exact "more". In other words: the demo is pretty much the full game. The full game really only adds some more towers. I liked these towers but really that's just too little content. You can unlock 10 or so "new" maps as well, but the only difference on these is the shape of the path the enemies are taking. It's the exact same waves of the exact same enemies is the exact same order every single time. I guess there are a few more artifacts to unlock as well, but these aren't even remotely interesting enough to impact the gameplay in any meaningfull way. Neither do the terribly balanced challenge modifiers you can turn on. I am really disappointed by this game. That's obviously not a good thing but wouldn't have been possible if there hadn't been something I liked in the first place. And there are quite a few things: The foundations are there! the Card fusion and upgrade system could need some more work but the basic Idea is fun already. The towers need some balancing and a lot of bugfixing and maybe a rework here and there, but overall they were interesting and if they were a bit more fleshed out they would be really fun to mix and match. The soundtrack is nice, the visuals are nice the enemy diversity is good for a first level. Or in Short: the foundation of this game is good. But looking further there are lots of issues. A few of the game mechanics are flawed by design. The Dot stats for example. Dot damage scaling with base damage and everything dying in 1 or 2 attacks anyway means dot damage is miniscule no matter how much you boost it. Armor is another stat that hardly matters, so are % of hp damage, and your life points. Balance between cards is horrendous. And the game could really use some more deck management abilities. Maybe a way to keep cards in your hand. I think it should be possible to use cards of a highter tier in fusions with cards of a lower tier (in a way rerolling them). What the game really needs the most though is more content. More enemy types, different waves on different maps, Boss waves, ... and MORE waves, it shouldn't be 25 waves every time, half your synergies won't even be online at that point. If you want to experience the game just play the demo, you won't be missing anything. If you then want to support the creator get the game anyway, but don't expect much more content.
