The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“its an idle game. not a deck builder or an auto battler. its funny and cute, but after playing for a bit it feels a like a mile wide inch deep sort of thing going on. hard to really recommend for $10, if it goes on sale grab it.”
“I can't for the life of me figure out why sometimes losing starts with a far bigger negative than other times.”
