I really want to like this game but there are so many issues. Steep learning curve and poor card choice severely limit the options and strategy of new players. This is probably the main reason there seems to be few players, as others mentioned. Advancement is hindered by incredibly low payout of successful matches (have played this for several days and never received more than about 20 coins, even if I beat "hard" rivals) and high cost of unlocking new "rivals". Being unable to choose cards in your deck makes strategy difficult. Much of the "strategy" here relies entirely on luck of the draw. It quickly becomes apparent that a poor draw in round 1 and 2 is game over, so its no wonder many players forfeit at the first chance when playing online. It's unfortunate because this game has incredible potential.

I REALLY want to like this game and give it 5 stars but, after playing for awhile, I've realized that the computer "cheats" in multiple ways. Everything from decks with 4-5 cards over the limit, rallying cards when there are no cards capable of rallying in play, Evasion/Flying save percentages well over 50%, etc. This is a major red flag for a game you have to pay $$ to get good cards.

I initially rated this a 5, but I'm changing it to 3...this game is ridiculously hard unless you take a Hunter or use the Casual Mode

WOW! VERY nice "Noir"-ish SF game, everything about this screams originality - graphics, art, music. Just beautiful!
