[quote][b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtransaction]Warning: Microtransaction infested mobile app![/url][/b] This game is infested with a toxic mobile app style cash shop. You will be prompted to and expected to give money to the developers through this cash shop to buy in-game goods so you can play the game.[/quote] "Spellstone" is one of thousands of nasty mobile apps infesting the "free" section of Steam, but it's not really free. This is a godawfully P2W cash grab Hearthstone ripoff but with cartoony furries instead of Blizzard characters on the cards. The game costs an eye watering SIXTY UNITED STATES DOLLARS worth of P2W DLC before you get into the utterly toxic cash shop, recharges/refills... this isn't just cancer, this is the bowel cancer of gaming. There's only a superficial game here. The game visuals and the game itself are incredibly shallow... think of them as the too-bright, colourful, thin plastic cabinet dress theme on a poker machine at the casino. That's basically what this is. So really, the mobile app "game" is just a veneer, a thin skin wrapped around a nasty, predatory mobile app cash shop. Putting that toxic mobile app monetisation aside... this is a mobile app. I didn't spend thousands on a gaming PC so I could pretend it's an iPhone, and I don't think you did either... this kind of mobile app has no place in your Steam library. This game is fairly dated at 9 years old... and even back then it looked old and busted compared to contemporary, professionally made 3D games of the same period. It looked bad then, it looks worse now. On the important matter of pricing and value for gamers, there's a lot going on here with monetisation, so this really shouldn't be considered a truly free product because of that. You're expected to pay up $60 USD to unlock content through DLC purchases. The game should not be considered completely unlocked until you empty your wallet for the developer. This is misleading and predatory pricing on a product falsely marketed as "free". Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Definitely not... this is just an unethical cash grab. Avoid at all costs.

Funciona para pasar el tiempo

There is not much point in getting into the game nowadays, but I appreciate that it is still playable.

I have nonexistent play time on this Steam, but I have played this game and its predecessors (mainly War Metal: Tyrant) excessively on Kongregate and Android back when I was younger and less discerning. In short, it's a fun junk food game to click around and watch your numbers go up, but utterly messed up by power creep and exploitative microtransactions. You have a deck of 15 cards (originally 10 in Tyrant) and a hand of 3. Each turn you choose one to play. They have 0-4 wait, meaning they sit that many turns in play, vulnerable, before they activate and start doing things. Played cards go in a line and while they are active, your first card activates its 0-3 abilities and attacks the opponent's first card, and so on, and if the opposite side is empty they attack the opponent's face. You can see this in the store previews. In early Tyrant this played surprisingly well despite being so simple, with all the interplay between faster smaller cards and heavy hitters, and abilities that could heal, prevent or directly deal damage, or perhaps stun cards for a turn. In Spellstone all this is vastly overshadowed by ridiculous numbers creep. To illustrate, the common 1-wait card in your starting deck is a 2/3 with no abilities. Fully upgraded it becomes a 3/10 with Empower 2 (each turn, for that turn, one of your cards gets +2 attack). You can probably see that with this difference in numbers there's little room for strategy, a deck with cards of the fully upgraded power level will outclass the base level ones regardless of any strategy. Here's what an endgame 1-wait card (runed and fully upgraded Little Kawosha) looks like: 12/30, Hex all 5 (for this turn all enemy cards take +5 damage for each instance of damage dealt to them), Bolt all 3 (deal 3 damage to all enemy cards), Frostbreath 4 (deal 4 damage to the opposing and diagonally adjacent enemy cards if present). So if you add all that up and ignore potential mitigating abilities on the other side, this dude will deal 34 damage to the opposing card, 17 to the its diagonally adjacent ones and 8 to all others. Not only is this comically far apart from the starter cards, when every card looks like this except half of them with similar defensive abilities instead, the board becomes ridiculously messy too. There's no way to balance this. Most single player content becomes trivial pretty quickly and you'll just farm it on autoplay. There's some strategy and matchup considerations in very endgame play where you can assume people are at least pretty close to the same materials, having either kept grinding for a decade or sank obscene amounts of money. Even then, there are premium currency only card sets that are commonly a step above the grindable ones. Now imagine having cards halfway between my previous examples - you'll be untouchable to the newbies, and vice versa to the endgamers. That's what the pvp is like, sometimes you autowin, sometimes you autolose, and even when there's a real game to be had there's always a thumb on the scale. I recently got back into this for a bit and it's still fine junk food, but you cannot approach this as seriously at all. I do like the core systems and occasionally daydream about putting together a clone with a balanced card set, but unfortunately this and Synapse's other still maintained games are about milking the p2w crowd with forever power creep.

love this game the art the ease of play the combat mechanics all of it give it a try i promise you wont be disappointed!
