Weiterzuempfehlen ### 5/5 — Très réussi ! *2021-06-06* Un jeu de construction de deck très addictif parmi les meilleurs : les héros offrent des stratégies très variées, et le jeu est très bien réalisé ! ### 5/5 — A hidden treasure with a few minor bugs *2021-06-02, version 2.0* This is maybe one of the best roguelike deckbuilding I’ve run into because it does a few things to bring a spin to the formula. The main draw is having your discard and draw piles double as your health. Every time an enemy hits you he steals some of the cards underneath their card. This means you have to balance prioritizing harder hitting enemies, ranged enemies, and who has the most of your cards/life. The base character is straight forward to start but every other unlockable character adds quite a twist to the formula. The Bugmaster in particular was a favorite of mine as most of their cards work as buffs and debuffs when held by the enemies. So one in particular makes your attacks hit all enemies of one enemy has the card in their hands. It’s a great game I keep coming back to and has no microtransactions or gimmicks. You buy once you play all you want. There have been one or two minor bugs such as a card that gets stuck in the hand area until the end of the floor but nothing that’s ever been truly game breaking. Don’t miss this game. It’s worth way more than The countless free-to-play trash with endless grinds and energy meters. ### 5/5 — Great game *2021-05-28, version 2.0* A pretty unique deckbuilder, great fun and all the classes are quite different ### 5/5 — Hidden Gem *2021-05-26, version 2.0* Very well made and fun game. Constantly updated and consistently engaging. Deserves more of a playebase. ### 5/5 — Good stuff *2021-05-15* Dang it, I have chores to get done and I’m doing “one more round” instead. Lots of variety here, excellent value. ### 5/5 — Hidden Gem in terms of pure gameplay *2021-01-15* Quick and easy but also deep gameplay, different heroes require different play style. If you’re fond to strategic card game try it and you’ll never regret. A couple things that could be improved: standard sans serif fonts reduce game beautiful aura and overall impression. I don’t appreciate that game ends after a fixed number of turns. I’d like to see at least a longer campaign and/or an endless mode. Rapido e veloce in termini di gameplay ma anche profondo, i differenti eroi richiedono approcci molto diversi e ben congegnati, meccaniche sifferenti dai soliti giochi e questo è un bene. Se siete appassionati di giochi strategici di carte, provatelo e non ve ne pentirete. Un paio di cose che potrebbero essere migliorate: i font sans serif standard riducono l’atmosfera magica del gioco e l’impressione complessiva del titolo, sembra un aspetto poco curato, non all’altezza di tutto il resto. Non mi piace che il gioco finisca dopo un numero fisso di turni, preferirei una campagna più lunga oppure una modalità endless. ### 5/5 — Great game. Hire an artist *2020-10-06, version 1.1.1* To the devs: Great game. Very fresh gameplay. This game is too good to have such generic artwork. If Dark Mist had some custom art, it could have been featured on the App Store. To potential buyers: Congrats on finding this gem. I know it must have taken some scrolling. Now buy it. ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2020-09-27* One of the best deck building games !! So addictive 🥴 ### 5/5 — とてもとても面白い *2020-08-25* 難易度全てクリアしました。 暇さえあればカードゲームをしていますが、 これほどオリジナリティがあって低価格かつ面白いゲームは他に知りません。 絵柄は洋風&ゲームシステムも独特なので、取っ付きにくい雰囲気がしますが、 慣れれば他のカードゲームよりもさくさく最後までクリアできます。 こういうゲームはあまりやらない方にこそオススメできます。 一点だけ難点を挙げると、最後の方、エリートの手の形をしたモンスターが、少なくない確率で大量デッキ破壊してきます。そこだけはストレスを感じます。 ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-08-05* A lot of cards, each with a unique illustration. Good game mechanics. Thanks for the updates, in portrait mode it is much more fun! ### 4/5 — Amazing Game 5/5...But *2020-07-31, version 1.0.5* As title says 5/5, but there is a bug and the for some reason the contact email keeps refusing my gmail message. I love the prophetess, and spirit guide is my favorite card, but I can’t get the game to use targeted attacks from the top of the deck when using it, I hope this gets fixed soon because it has so much wonderful potential. (It is my favorite because of its combo power with the tentacle prop, and the wheel of fortune card, allowing you to kill everything in the field by ending your turn.) ### 5/5 — Problem fixed! *2020-07-30, version 1.0.5* In less than a day, my problem was solved. I can’t remember when the last time I got treated so well! Love the game! ### 5/5 — dark mist *2020-07-30, version 1.0.5* i was never really a fan of card games until a few years ago when i got Imbroglio. granted, it's not a card battler, but it got me started down a path where i saw Pirates Outlaws and gave it a shot. a year later i was a little obsessed with it. now, i'm still not what anyone would call a fanatic, but i do have a few card collecting games/card battlers/strategy card games on my iDevice, and, for me, Dark Mist fits right in with the best of them. you'll have 4 characters that you can choose from (three of which you will need to unlock just by playing, no IAP required), all having their own special cards and abilities as well as cards that are shared with all characters. right now, my favorite is the Bugmaster. being able to infect your enemies with massive amounts of cards (which can turn into MASSIVE amounts of dmg) and the chain damage mechanics are just.... highly enjoyable. but i will say that each character has their charm. for a while, i really enjoyed the Prophet; being able to see what cards you had coming and the multiple ways you could drag turns out with cards that cost no energy points to play or that wind up triggering effects in other cards makes it, IMO, the character you'll want if you're wanting to be more focused on strategy and taking your time thinking a turn or two ahead. priced at just $3, i actually think it's underpriced. i would have felt good paying at least $5, and $7-$10 would not have left me thinking i was overcharged, though i also think this of the developer's other game, another fantastic card battler. and - if you're new to the genre, or are a vet and would like a bit more challenge; there's custom rules that you can pick and choose from for each game: positive, negative and neutral attributes that can change the game up quite a bit, making it wildly easy or brutally difficult. and on top of that, there's also a daily challenge if you get sick of the main mode... which randomly picks one positive, one negative and one neutral attribute while you try to get the highest score you can to climb up that leaderboard. lastly, with no IAPs in sight, you can be sure that the game is balanced properly without trying to nickel and dime you into bankruptcy. if you're looking for a card game to pick up, this is one of a handful that i would FULLY recommend, i've even gifted it to friends and people i work with just to get them to take a chance on it. the majority of them wind up loving it, while the ones who don't never had any interest in card games on the first place.... more RTS or action rpgs, which i really should have found out beforehand. =P ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very poor game *2023-01-28, version 2.0* There really isn't anything redeemable about this game, it's bad all the way through. Avoid ### 1/5 — To many OP enemies. *2020-07-11, version 1.0.4* Good mechanics. Need to fix the scaling of enemy difficulty to be less OP. Too much randomness with building your deck to meet difficulty level of enemies. Need a better system for choosing cards as you level up. ### 1/5 — Wasted my buck *2020-07-10, version 1.0.4* Tutorial gave me no idea how to play this game. Played game once and didn’t like it at all. Dull and nonsensical. Only bought since cheap price and no in-app purchases. Had hopes, but still a waste. Prefer my PvZ heroes (plants vs. zombies heroes) card game that was free and soo much more fun. Still looking for another great card game to enjoy as much. Search goes on. ### 2/5 — キャラのバランス悪い。 *2021-04-30* blood cardのシステムはよかったが、今作は運要素が強い。特定のキャラはカードのループで戦えるが、最後の敵に忍者がでてき手札が悪いと増殖されてタコ殴りにされる。 ### 2/5 — 予言者のバグ *2020-07-15* 導きのカードを使うと一定確率で、説明文の様な効果にはならず変な動きになる。 後、全キャラに起きるバグだけど、敵にカード奪われてる筈なのに、敵に奪われてるカードを確認出来ない時が結構発生する。 混沌の騎士がゴミ過ぎる。 自分自身の能力に自ら首絞めてる雑魚。手札が圧迫して自ら攻撃出来ない事態になる。頭悪い設定にしてるな。 ### 3/5 — Не зацепило *2024-04-27* Показалась крайне скучной. Есть множество бесплатных игр подобной тематики и поинтереснее. Вроде не дорогая, не жалко, но создателям рекомендовал бы всё таки добавить больше механик, какой никакой нормальный сюжет и вообще развиваться, не стоять на месте. ### 3/5 — Dommage *2022-01-04* Que ce jeu serait bon s’il était en français ! 😭 ### 3/5 — 固まる *2020-07-08* ゲーム自体は面白いが、たびたび固まる 特に、予知などの少し複雑なルールのカードを使うと、固まる頻度が高い あと、横画面のレイアウトが使いにくい カードを出す動きと、ホーム画面に戻る動きが重なるので、時々誤操作する 縦画面のほうが遊びやすいのでは？ ゲーム自体はやりこみ甲斐がありそうなので、購入したことを後悔してはいません ### 4/5 — セールで購入 *2023-07-10* セールで100円だったので購入 戦略性やコンボ、どの敵から倒すかなど考えるのが面白い 不満をあげるなら敵をタップすると敵の能力が見えるのだけど指で隠れて見にくい それ以外はいまのところ不満はない 700円だと少し高いがセールで100円なら迷わず買って損はないと思う ### 4/5 — 初期キャラに注意 *2020-11-17* ファーストキャラが一番作業感が強く短調でつまらないです 別キャラにすると面白くなってきます --- 初期キャラでやっていたときの内容 このゲームは普通は容易に組めないはずの永久ループをほとんど何も考えずに組めます むしろループを継続することが義務になっています この事情がゲームをつまらなくしてます 何も問題ない相手には単調なループを繰り返して, 延々とデッキを回しているだけです 繰り返しが面倒でエフェクトもいちいち発生しかなり作業感があります このままだとプレイヤーが負けることが無いため, ループをジャムらせようとするメタ要素が敵の能力としていくつも配置されています ループさせるのが前提の設計 ループ中はひたすら単調 それだけじゃゲームとして成り立たないからメタ要素を詰め込む ループがジャムったら死亡 こういった感じでひたすら消化し続けます このゲームは作り手のコンセプトばかりが先行していて「プレイヤーの面白体験」「プレイヤーにとっての可食部」があまりに味気ない 前作は完全クリアしましたが今作は大味で奥行きのなさにすぐに飽きました ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Addicting, straight to gameplay *2024-10-21, version 2.0* Best rogue like deck builder on IOS, yes better than slay the spire as well ### 5/5 — Should be more popular *2024-08-19, version 2.0* This game isnt easy, but the fun is in the challenge ### 5/5 — Оригинально *2024-04-12* Затянула похлеще Slay the Spire. Несколько классов, у каждого свои уникальные механики ### 5/5 — Spettacolo *2024-02-07* Bel gioco, è difficile smettere! Ci sono 6 personaggio ognuno con il suo stile da apprendere al meglio, puoi modificare dei parametri per avere la vita facile o più difficile. Unica pecca é che non c’é un finale, non essendoci storia ci sta, ma almeno una schermata con scritto” ben fatto!” La potevano fare! In un secondo sei alla schemata iniziale e sa Sembra quasi un crash! Comunque per quello che costa é da giocare. ### 5/5 — Great game, rough edges, excellent value *2023-04-05, version 2.0* This is an excellent game. There are a few things I could gripe on but overall, for the money, this is a blast. If you like deck builders and CCG this is definitely worth the time and money. ### 5/5 — Great deck building gem *2023-03-05, version 2.0* A great fantasy themed deck builder rogue lite game with fun mechanics. If this remotely interest you, just buy it. It has multiple classes, artifacts, and difficulty levels. ### 5/5 — Great deck building gem *2023-02-13, version 2.0* A great fantasy themed deck builder rogue lite game with fun mechanics. If the remotely interest you, just buy it. It has multiple classes, artifacts, and difficulty levels. ### 5/5 — Отличная *2022-09-17* Отличная игра с разными механиками героями и боссами.спасибо ### 5/5 — Clever little game for card game fans *2022-08-16* Some cool interesting mechanics, enough content to last a few hours, will certainly entertain! Recommended. ### 5/5 — Great Innovations *2021-12-25, version 2.0* I have played a lot of card-based rogue-likes and I was impressed how creative this game was in that genre, from the classes to the core mechanics of using you deck as your life and fighting a horde of enemies in each level, not one at a time. Of course other games have done many of the same things but it comes together to make a very fun and refreshing experience --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
