It's ridiculous how good the game is. Go play it. Also, for a one-man team this is a masterpiece, it is rough around the edges for sure but this guy knows how to make a good game! Gives me all sorts of good vibes, from Baldurs Gate 1 & 2, to a little of Dark Souls, a sprinkle of Albion Online or LOTRO.. You might not take this game very seriously at first due to it's resemblance to an MMO but trust me there is a great, classic cRPG here. And it's also very accessible, like an MMO, you can just go and have some fun, do dungeons or craft. Or you can do the story and missions which are (surprisingly) good. If you keep your expectations low at the start you'll discover there is a lot to love here. Wishlisting Gedonia 2 for sure!

Early access review - game is already very good, just missing some features. Draft mode would be great but I recommend it nonetheless.

Sadly, I can't recommend this game. I liked it at first but I am starting to see more and more problems with it, to the point where I really don't want to invest time into it.

Pros:
- Hearthstone/M:tG mechanics, many interesting ideas
- Reasonable progression system
- Fluid and clean looking
- Gives me pretty good vibes

Cons:
- After playing it for a while and seeing all the cards and factions I have to say this game needs a complete balance overhaul. A lot of cards really don't make sense - I'm not talking just weak units like 2 mana 1/4 with no abilities. I'm talking about whole archetypes for factions which really just don't work like Poison or Survivor (to a degree). The factions themselves are also not balanced. There are some that are way way weaker than the rest.
- A lot of unit cards are very uninspired and just seem to have random abilites. It looks like the devs just ran out of ideas. It feels cheap.
- No draft mode, events (preconstructed decks battle) are ok but easy to figure out which warlord is the best.
- In reality the game lack real depth, a lot of cards/combos seem good in theory but you can't just copy/paste ideas from M:tG or Hearthstone and expect them to work in your game where the Warlord (Hero) can attack each turn. It's just a tempo race a lot of the time, I feel like HS or M:tG do a much better job at giving you more options to play, more playstyles.
- Unpolished UI sometimes makes for a bad experience.
- I'm ok with power creep in card games, new cards being better than old ones BUT when you associate new expansions with new factions it creates the problem that old factions are just not worth playing. Imagine you play M:tG but they stopped prinitng Blue cards. Or you play Hearthstone and they give you a set of 80 cards for Mage and that's it. Then they create a new hero and give him cards which are better overall. Maybe in the future they will add cards to the other legions but for now they seem to be focused on just adding legions.

TL;DR = Game could be good if they balance it and change like 20% of the cards at least. For now it's just not worth it.

I don't know why is there so much hate aimed at this game. I haven't been in the loop for the development cycle but as for right now it is a very fun wh40k team based 3rd person shooter where cooperation matters. It's not pay to win as you can get everything for free (cosmetics aside). It's a little hard to get into because there is a progression system and at the beginning you will be at a slight disadvantage. Game is very flavourful, looks good, runs well and I don't find it unbalanced, every role has it's place. The player population is a little low but you can get games consisently in the afternoon (EU). I think people bounce back from the game because every beginner wants to play a good Space Marine and a lot of veteran players play Chaos which can result in very noob-stompy matches, which have mostly to do with big skill and knowledge gap, not some pay to win nonsense.

TL;DR: game is good, give it a shot. Def not pay2win, more like learn2win

An enjoyable albeit pretty short experience. Very atmospheric, very polished. Good soundtrack and visuals, generally pretty basic puzzle platforming, with a few difficult moments. The theme is well done - zombie apocalypse done right (this on the lines of The Walking Dead at the beginning). Worthy of your time, however I would go for it only for a cheap price as this is 1-2 evenings of play.

Explosive gameplay, great atmosphere, great setting. Could have been longer and/or more varied but still a lot of fun. Multiplayer is a dessert, however a very tasty one. For some, it could be even the main meat of the game. 8/10 or even more if you like wh40k.

Very good, very addictive and polished. "Just one more mission" syndrome. Definitely worth it.
