well made!

This game is extremely well made, i am enjoying it a lot!
Congrats to the dev-team!

 

I just posted my review as well. This is a really great game that I think most people just haven’t heard of, or if they have, they dismiss it as a Gwent clone. It is very similar to Gwent, let’s be fair, but I actually like your card design a lot more than Gwent. In Gwent I feel half the battle (or more) is often won in the deck building and draw phases. There is much more interaction with your opponent here so I really feel like skill (during the game) plays a much needed role. I wish more people played this one or at least gave it a shot. Maybe you can try to get some famous streamers to try this out on their stream for advertising?

 

Was introduced to Runewards by a Redditor on this post. I must say that I am glad to have found this game. It is by far one of my favourite card game now. There are plenty of strategy in order to win the game. Do you sacrifice a round to make a come back in the next round or do you go all out now? All requires certain consideration.

Congratulation for an awesome game.

Thank you

 

We have been testing some alternative icons for Runewards, which do you prefer out of the ones below?

(A1 - A5 and B1 -B5)

 

I like B5 best, then probably A5.

How are player numbers looking? Finding a match seems to take a while...
