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 ### 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。 ### 4/5 — Great card battler *2015-08-17* Super fun, but gets a tad repetitive. Wish combat and the story had more to it. ### 3/5 — Good game *2015-03-24, version 1.6.2* Really enjoyed this game however the one thing that really annoyed me was the 5th section you unlock. I expected to spend the longest here grinding for gold yet for some reason they made this the easiest section to afford cards, one battle gets you enough for several cards which made the 5th section the easiest of all of the game which is the strangest thing I've ever seen from a game. It's Common sense that games should get harder not easier. Would of been 5 stars but not with the way it ended. ### 4/5 — Pretty Good *2013-06-07* Good game. Worth playing. However, there are a few down sides. The game starts off really slow, with little variance in cards or play style. Even at the end, there aren't enough cards to support more than 2 or 3 play styles. Near the end, you zoom through the last 2 realms. Kinda the opposite of what is expected. Also, this is a very short game with no after story content. Don't expect to be entertained for more than a week. ### 3/5 — Card farming *2013-02-09* This game improved its translation over its initial release so the dialogue is ok save for the numbered town names. The quick mode also hastens battle speed which is good. The problem with Deckmake Fantasy is that it gets repetitive, especially in the beginning when you have a deck full of short swords that are terrible and have no combos. At least you get a couple of fireballs and the stronger cards make the game more interesting. You also need to be able to sell outdated cards too. I do like the fact there is some strategy, like using a buckler against hobgoblins, whose charge attack gets crippled when you raise your defense. The game is fairly underrated as a lot of online reviews do not include the most recent version of the game that is a nice improvement especially when you get going with some nice cards. ### 5/5 — great game cant wait for the next one *2012-12-07, version 1.6.1* count me in for deckmake 2, make it with more of everything ### 5/5 — Awesome *2012-09-21, version 1.6.1* Great game. When is deckmake fantasy 2 coming out. ### 5/5 — Great game must try! *2012-09-20, version 1.6.1* This game is really fun, it is repetitive but what rpg isn't? You are in it for the story. And it is a good story. I say try it out I enjoyed it and it provide you a lot of entertainment, there are different monsters so you do have to figure out how to evolve your deck in order to defeat them. I do wish you could play different characters, or that there was more cards, but I they did a good job and who know if they are making a sequel! I would definitely buy it if there is! Great game! ### 5/5 — Superb!! *2012-09-05, version 1.6.1* Great game. Wish there was more to do. ### 4/5 — Pretty sweet *2012-08-18, version 1.6.1* Couldn't put it down....but it was a bit short. Needs some more characters but worth the price. ### 3/5 — 흠... *2012-06-23* 내가 생각했던 방식 비슷한 게임이긴 한데, 부족한 점이 좀 보임; 카드가 갈수록 강해져서 앞에 산 카드는 모두 쓰레기가 됨; 때문에 카드를 모으는게 재미있는게 아니라 '또야?'라는 생각이 들면서 점차 노가다 게임으로 변질;; 몹의 패턴도 단순하고 큰 변화가 없어서 보조 카드는 거의 필요가 없음;; 한마디로 처음엔 아주 흥미롭다가 세번째 스테이지 들어가는 순간 흥미가 팍 식음;; ### 4/5 — カードゲーム初心者向き。 *2012-06-20* 良くも悪くも、シンプルで分かりやすいゲームデザイン。グラフィックも良い。 強いカードを揃えていけば戦略など考えなくても進める。そういう意味ではRPG色が強い。 作業感が気にならない人には良いゲームだと思う。 逆に、カルドセプトやMTGを求めている人には物足りないハズ。 (完全上位互換のカードだらけなので、デッキ構築の妙が全く無い) ### 5/5 — Great *2012-06-01, version 1.6.1* This is an excellent game. Pretty addicting, too--I played it pretty much nonstop till I beat it. I'd like to see some achievements though, to add to the replay value. Nice ending as well. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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 ### 1/5 — Bug if you beat a salamander before you talk to the king in the last area. *2015-11-26* I love the game, the artwork is fantastic. But I was unable to beat it due to a game breaking glitch that stopped me from advancing and fighting the final boss. Can't recommend a game that's broken at such a critical point, sorry. ### 1/5 — Worst card game ever....oh, actually it's not even a card game *2011-05-01, version 1.3.0* Just plain boring.... thought it's a card game but it's NOT!! when you choose a card to attack, basically it's no different than pressing attack button only that you'll have 2 or maybe 3 different attack type, and the monsters only repeats the one and only attack they have..... There is no strategy in this game. Just repeating the same old attack against the same old monster. (Did I not tell you there is only few kind of monster to fight against? Well, like it matters, with this "card system", it won't be fun even there's thousands of different monsters. To sum up, it's not a card game nor a RPG. It's just a WASTE OF YOUR MONEY. ### 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. ### 2/5 — Good concept, poor execution *2012-05-04, version 1.6.0* Good concept, poor execution. Idea is great, but cards, towns, and battles are very repetitive. You will be able to tell who win the battle by the amount of HP. Nice try, but skip this one. ### 2/5 — Not worth the money, not worth the time *2012-04-20* This game is fun for about ten minutes. If you're the kind of person who wants to enjoy the first few things that happen in a game and then slog through their merciless and completely boring reoccurrence for another six or seven hours, then this is for you. The themes are pretty juvenile and lack imagination. The mechanic is decent, but totally overworked by the time you're done. Also, the difficulty level is all over the map. Instead of a steady increase, it seemed to be hard in certain pockets and developed very unpredictably (the last chapter was by far the easiest). I'd pay $0.99 for this, and be mildly annoyed. But after dropping four bucks, I'm ticked enough to actually write a review on how bad it really is. AVOID THIS ONE. ### 2/5 — Okay for 8 Year Olds *2011-06-11, version 1.4.0* Thought this would be more like mtg or Dominion but is instead a simple game for kids. ### 2/5 — Initial review *2011-05-11* Playing for 5 minutes and there are a few things about this game that make me wish I haven't purchased it. The graphics are good, but there is no Retina support. Retina support is a MUST for all games now a days and because of that, the graphics quality really suffers (quality could be so much better with retina). The English is just plain bad, I can deal with it, but it could be better. $3 is a lot of money. Most apps are $1 now and this game should be $1 as well, especially for the initial quality of the game. Update the game with Retina graphics for a 4-5 star review, update it with better English too for guaranteed 5 stars :) ### 2/5 — So so *2011-05-11, version 1.3.0* Great graphics! Great battle system! No story, and frankly an rpg with no story is just a game. No role playing involved. Couldve been amazing. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 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。 ### 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.. ### 5/5 — Card game rpg *2014-11-04, version 1.6.1* Great campaign mode great art work and the combat is addictive just wish there was more ### 5/5 — 10 stars and wow.. These guys get it *2013-11-16* Im a school ff1,2,3,6,7,8,9,10,10-2,13,12-2,14, and in between workaholic antisocial, gym rat and this is the game to pass time when you chillin for no reason and smart enough to really distract you from the day and when your body is too sore to workout it will remind you that it likes you too so play with it.. Long story short I don't have to spend money one this game to have fun it's x10 stars for how smart it is and that whom ever did this has to be tired of paying for things to play because grinding is too hard on other games and I need to feed his kids too... Please make more games like this... ### 5/5 — Loved it! *2013-06-30, version 1.6.1* Great game. Fight monsters in five kingdoms with a deck of cards. ### 5/5 — Best rpg card game on an iPhone! *2013-05-17, version 1.6.1* One of the best and most addicting iPhone game ever! If you are a rpg fan like me then this game is a must! This is my 3rd time replaying this game. Please make a part 2! ### 5/5 — Download this game! *2013-04-09, version 1.6.1* I love this game! So much fun and a good solid challenge --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
