Story: 

There was once a mysterious land where weapons,
magic and items were embodied in special cards. Ones who
studied the art of handling these all-powerful cards over long years
were called “card-users,” and the five kings of the land relied on them
to maintain peace and balance.
 
However, one day, reports of monsters attacking towns and
travelers suddenly spread throughout all the kingdoms. 

At that time, a young boy began a journey in Firsta, a land known for its bold adventurers. 
What secrets will he uncover in his quest to becoming a master card-user?

### 2/5 — Dead end, unbalanced game

*2023-06-02*

If you dont spend coins wisely, you basically have to start over. Cant grind and redo levels for gold. Poorly  balanced.

### 2/5 — Glitches is a dealbreaker when giving money

*2022-10-15*

They should seriously play test this, especially when grinding for gold/money in this game , because that’s where it starts glitching for me the most or in that case, glitches me out of the app game. Don’t get the wrong idea ,It is a great game. I just don’t tolerate glitches/dysfunctions if I spend my money on anything.

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2021-05-05, version 1.6.2*

I bought this years ago and was wondering if there will be a 2 ?
It has so much character and personality. Art style is clean, music is great story is fun. After making my own game I know how hard it is and makes me appreciate this even more. I need a part 2.

### 5/5 — スマホゲーとしては良ゲー

*2019-07-11*

まだ序盤ですが、プレイした感じなど。
デッキメイクとカードゲームのようなタイトルですが、実際には、1vs1タイプのロープレのコマンドがカードゲーム風になっているだけで、いわゆるDQ1ライクなオーソドックスなものです。バランスとしては、ヘラクレスの栄光1がよりライトユーザー向けになった感じでしょうか。
基本的に戦闘コマンドとステータスがデッキ(山札)に依存するので、攻撃の威力、被ダメージ、敵HP、自分HPからダメージレースをどうやってコントロールするかが鍵で、デッキ構築が最重要です。
稼ぎ等を考慮すると古いロープレに慣れた人にオススメの一品です。

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2018-04-26, version 1.6.2*

One of my favorite games on the phone.

### 1/5 — 退屈なゲーム

*2018-03-10*

テンポ✖︎
戦略性も無くただつまらない作業を延々としていく
ストーリー、絵、音楽どれもほとんど魅力が無い。
120円でも買わない。完全に損した

### 5/5 — ファミコン感覚

*2017-03-17*

以前に一度クリアしていたのを忘れて、再度プレイしましたが面白かったです。
これは続編の製作を希望します。

### 3/5 — Solid game with little reward

*2016-09-13*

The game is easy to pick up and put down. Mostly played in between commutes. However, moving between different kingdoms creates power creeps from previously accessible cards. You'll never use magic attack or physical attack cards once you receive stronger ones. 

Your HP is the only stat you control, while attack is determined by specific card. Essentially, you level up by acquiring higher HP with the better cards in the new area. No elemental resistances for magical attacks, and physical attack cards reign supreme. Game can become a tad repetitive if you've figured out the optimal strategy. Final boss was surprisingly satisfying to destroy with triple power Ice Sword!!!

Overall, would recommend if you want a short (took me about a week with 30-60 min sessions two to three times a day) and visually appealing game with little variation of strategy, but high on visuals and card collecting. The music is charming and fits with setting. The story is pretty light, as well as town exploration.

Game follows pattern:

Go to town, talk to shop owner for items in town, and guild owner for details on monsters in the area. Each area has 4 monsters. Rinse and repeat until you find Kingdom's Castle. Talk to King and receive cards, then fight whatever monster king wants you to slay (usually two strongest monster in their kingdom) and bring back item for him. You'll then be granted passage into the subsequent chronological kingdom. Continue process until reaching final 5th land.

Favorite cards: 
Power Attack
Replace
Heavy Boomerang
Fire Sword
Spear

### 5/5 — 오

*2016-08-03*

아이폰 3gs쓸때 처음으로 구입해서 재밌게 하다 폰을 바꾼뒤 제목이 기억이 안나서 포기한게임인데 오랜만에 다시하니 재미있네요
근데 왜 결제가 또 되는거지..

### 4/5 — クリアしました(^^)

*2016-07-07*

リーマンですが、仕事の合間などにちょこちょこプレイしてます。
ボリュームも難易度もちょうどよく楽しかったです。

カードのシャッフル処理の仕様なのか、同じカードが連続で手札に来る場合がよくあり、運が悪いと屍。。

運と戦略のバランスが絶妙でした。

続編、アップデートなどあれば是非やりたいです。
