### 4/5 — Solid and fun, but shop mechanic is annoying.

*2026-08-05, version 1.0.35*

Great game and fun mechanics, but tying progression behind ever-increasing paywalls rather than a single lifetime purchase is kinda scummy. I would rather pay $10 once than pay a monthly subscription for what should be a single purchase. Other than that, it’s great

### 3/5 — Von allem zu viel

*2026-07-10*

Ich habe den Vorgänger und andere Rauers-Spiele sehr gerne gespielt. Aber in Card Crawl 2: Von allem zu viel. Zu viele Modi, Erfolge, Variationen, Monetarisierungsstrategien und leider auch Bugs. Ich habe zuletzt keinen Überblick mehr gehabt, wo ich im Spiel stehe.

### 5/5 — 間違いない傑作

*2026-06-10*

気になったなら取り敢えずやれと胸を張って言える名作です。無料でもかなり満足できますが、完全に楽しむならゲーム内通貨の最大容量を上げる課金はすべきだと思います。(1500円？ぐらい)まずは無料でやって自分にハマったら課金をすると言う流れでいいと思います。

### 5/5 — scratches the gamba

*2026-06-06, version 1.0.24*

good combination of gameplay elements, great art work, lots of unlockables/characters. feels like a leap forward for the series rather than "the next one". the sound of getting gold has never been this satisfying. ever.

### 5/5 — One problem

*2026-06-05, version 1.0.24*

I didn’t play the game far enough

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-06-03, version 1.0.22*

Its a little slow to start, but once you start unlocking items and modes it opens up a lot. Pricing is very reasonable, and staggered in a strange but functional way. Advanced mode was well worth the grind and unlocking the hero swords and shields has been a blast.

### 2/5 — Not fun

*2026-06-03, version 1.0.22*

It was fun for about an hour but once you get to difficulty 3 you start to notice how the game works against you. Multiple matches in difficulty 3 and 4 I got to the final turn, only to have 0 weapons show up. The only thing that were appearing were high power enemies.

I bet if I bought that new hero or that card pack I’d be able to get past the level, huh? 

Lost all fun once I found the game just builds you up to blast you at the end of the match, every.single.time

### 4/5 — It is not that expensive

*2026-06-02, version 1.0.22*

I am not sure why people are complaining about Iap in the game. It is like $1 to upgrade the bag once then $6-7 the second time. The developer is less aggressive than other game. I hope the game has an endless mode that i could play and i am willing to pay a bit more.

### 1/5 — Game doesn’t work

*2026-05-29, version 1.0.21*

Open the game and try to do introduction just to get stuck staring at a rotating cup for 10 mins

### 5/5 — 👍👍👍

*2026-05-27, version 1.0.19*

I love every single one of your games. Don’t ever stop!

### 1/5 — Monetization Hurts Game

*2026-08-15, version 1.0.36*

This is a fun card game, but the recent update cranking up the already pretty strong monetization really hurts it. I wouldn’t even start playing it now.

### 1/5 — Very limited FREE PLAY

*2026-08-09, version 1.0.36*

I really enjoyed playing this game. However in order to advance in the game you need to spend real money. There are opportunities to get more gold in order to purchase the upgraded cards but it was very slow and time consuming. You need to watch a very long video in order to get a reward from a gold chest. It is the only way to accumulate more than 250
gold without spending real money. I really enjoyed playing the game and would spend money to purchase it outright. However how they set up the in-app purchases, it took the fun out for me. Also based on other reviews, this is common perception.

### 1/5 — It’s just not that great.

*2026-08-04, version 1.0.35*

I loved the first game. I still prefer it over this one despite the first game being totally abandoned.

I liked the quick pickup of the first game so much more. This feels like it wants to go in so many different directions and it got lost in translation. The direction for this game is unclear. The gameplay no where nearly as fun and quick as before. 

It’s disappointing.

### 1/5 — Обновление ухудшило игру.

*2026-07-10*

Не работает режим Классика:колода.

### 1/5 — Micro transaction nightmare

*2026-07-02, version 1.0.31*

Solid fun game marred by no way to just purchase the game outside of a monthly subscription. This dev’s games are easily worth 20 bucks to buy, feels like it’s nickel and diming fans.

### 1/5 — Some games are not winnable

*2026-06-14, version 1.0.25*

This is a game full of bugs and pushing ads on you with no rewards to finally end up on a non winnable game. Do not download. Money grabbing scam

### 1/5 — RNG Fest

*2026-06-07, version 1.0.24*

Nothing but RNG. Love getting railroaded by dog water bosses right at the end of a run.

### 1/5 — Just sell us the game!

*2026-06-05, version 1.0.23*

I was looking forward to buying this game but to my surprise I cannot purchase it.  Instead of selling a game we get this monotization that insults our intelligence.  The game gives you problems that you must fix by watching commercials or buying upgrades.

The problems created for us:

#1: You have to pay for items to win at an interesting difficulty.  The game is centered around this to advance.

#2: Good items cost over 250 gold but your bag isn't big enough to hold more that much. Solution: You must pay real money for a larger bag.  I don't know how many sizes there are or how big your bag eventually needs to be in order to have fun.

#3: The store is only open twice a day.  Solution/problem: Watch commercials to refresh the shop.  Solution: To avoid this you can rent an ad-blocker with real money which creates a recurring charge on your credit card.

I have no idea how many more sleazy 'gotchas' this game has because I simply do not support this type of monetizing.

This game should have simply been available to purchase like previous titles.  A freemium version could have been published but you still have the useless gold bag that is too small to buy anything good.

It's sad because it's mostly die-hard fans of this dev that's buying into this freemium model.  

Just make a good game and sell it to us!

### 1/5 — Grind

*2026-05-31, version 1.0.21*

Nearly impossible to progress without paying money every month, played 30+ games so far and I can’t upgrade anything because your bag can only hold 250 gold, but hey for real money you can upgrade that. I personally want more cards that the ones you start with, I’ve gotten 1 new card. Gameplay is fun, but very repetitive

### 1/5 — ロードが終わらない

*2026-05-30*

アプリを開いて、チュートリアルを押すとロードのまま一生進みません。

### 5/5 — 面白い！

*2026-08-08*

ソリティアを軸としたローグライトなのでソリティアを知っていればすぐに理解できるシンプルさなので奥深く面白い。1ランの時間も5分〜15分程度でサクサク遊べるしセーブもできるので隙間時間も快適。アートワークや音もいいので癒し効果がある。まとめます。

▼良い点
・ソリティアを知っていればすぐ理解できる
・1ラン10分前後でサクッと遊べる
・高難易度になると普通に負けられる
・キャラクターやレリック、スキルカードが豊富でコンボも楽しめる
・アートワークや音も良い

▼イマイチな点
・最初は各テーブルのルールがわかりにくい
・カードとレリックの収集が終わるとゴールドの使い道がなくなる（あったらすみません）
・進行状況のデータ引き継ぎができない（ゲーム設定・端末設定とも音をONにしているが無音になったので再インストールしたいが引き継ぎがないため断念･･･）

課金はしなくても問題なく遊べますが、お金の所持料は課金した方が快適です。

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!

*2026-08-03, version 1.0.35*

It’s such a relaxing solitare tactical game where unlocking new cards and items can uncover satisfying combinations that just make everything unique!

### 5/5 — これは楽しい！

*2026-07-18*

ほどよく頭を使うガードゲームです。

### 5/5 — 攻略についての質問

*2026-07-08*

死神ディールの勝ち方が本当にわからなくて困ってます。どのヒーロー、どの布陣でやればいいのか。勝てている方いましたら教えていただけると本当に喜びます。
このゲームは本当に面白いです！！もっと流行って攻略をシェアしてくれる人が増えたらいいな…。

### 5/5 — A fantastic game

*2026-07-01, version 1.0.31*

I never knew how much time has passed while playing this game. Creative, fanstastic also very good for brain 🧸🤍

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-06-30, version 1.0.31*

Really really good game. Very mentally stimulating without being frustrating. I love how little I have to interact with ads and the game doesn’t even pressure you to purchase coins. I stumbled upon this game on accident and it’s hands down my new favorite

### 5/5 — Like all good games…

*2026-06-29, version 1.0.30*

An exceptional remake of the original. It introduces additional ways to customize your deck while adding difficulty through enemies. As if right now I have not been able to make it to advanced but I have a feeling that the higher difficulty will use the stickers and other abilities. 

It is making it to advanced and higher difficulties that is my problem. As strictly free to play I have difficulty obtaining items with items exceeding the amount of my coin purse it is tough to continue the game. I am a fan of the ads it doesn’t lock necessary content. But I would love to unlock higher difficulties but at this slow pace it is proving cruelly annoying. My only suggestions would be to lower the prices of items to 250 instead of 275 so free to play can access them easier without needing to open a chest. Thank you for reading this.

### 5/5 — 楽しい！

*2026-06-28*

こういうレビューを書くのは初めてですが、このゲームをとっても気に入ったので書いてみます！

チュートリアルも非常にわかりやすく、序盤は直感的にプレイできました。いろいろなモードで遊ぶうち、ヒーローと相性のいいアイテムやスペルカードを見つけていくのもとても楽しいです！なによりどのカードもデザインが素敵なのでコレクション欲も満たしてくれます。ランク入り目指して頑張ります。

### 5/5 — Оплата

*2026-06-22*

Сделайте для России оплату через посредников. 
В нынешней ситуации невозможно что-либо купить в самой игре.

### 5/5 — Большой потенциал

*2026-06-20*

Очень затягивает, прада и прогрессия аналогично тягомотная, чтобы перейти на более сложные испытания надо заниматься гриндом.
