Ash of Gods: Tactics

For now a 3 star rating. Amazing art and design. Amazing gameplay and tactics. My main complaint is that it is hard to level up the unit and equipment cards that you acquire. I spent about 30 dollars on the game and the return imo is not an worth the money spent. I have a few unit cards leveled to lvl 5 and the rest lvl 3-4. I fear that a long term community is not feasible with the current monetary model. Some more units or another faction would help if it was easier or cheaper to lvl up. Equipment cards are ludicrously expensive to level. It is fun though and the attention to detail and quality is immense. I want to play more but sometimes I just feel stuck unless I open my wallet some more. I understand that this is a delicate dance for the developers so I hope there will be tweaks in the upcoming releases. Will update my review in the upcoming weeks and I remain optimistic. UPDATE: The last patch brought some nice tweaks to the game. A new event with some much needed new content as well as some changes to rewards. So close to a 5 star game. Still a little pricy in my opinion but the game delivers gobs of quality and details. Lightning fast matches with tons of strategy. Hard to do with a turn based game. Kudos! Ok who am I kidding. 5 star game. I am loving it.

(AD FREE! This game is amazingly ad free (still has purchaseables) I was leery (proper English) but wins my vote. Amazing art, epic story (please read it, it’s actually pretty crazy) still here after 72 hours, and hoarding my fame. Well played. - Update: still love it, still fighting through as F2P after a few buys, definitely not pay to win. Dev notes. A couple load fails that seem to be fixed (thank you!). Personally I’d up the Supply refresh rate (1...every 20 min? Even after a day at work I can only play 3 without chests resupplying my ability to play levels ..), at least for new players (maybe a missions under 8), keep us able to stay, both before and after whatever formula calculates staying power ;) For now, pay to win is at the top for pvp (obviously, and not a proper criticism unless the game is impossible without paying, or ads, which is not the case) and it subsidizes an amazing amount of FTP solo: If you’re a turn based or Table Top, this game is for you. I actually found grinding fun, it’s the new Chess as far as strategy.

As others have mentioned this is a good game. Good balance and interesting tactics. Some bugs though where buttons aren’t enabled correctly after wins and quests aren’t marked completed sometimes. Definitely needs support for multiple decks, would be 5 stars with this improvement. I do not experiment as much because I might not remember my current deck when I make changes.
