Early Access Review
Cards zoom around wildly, even at normal animation speed it is prone to inducing motion sickness. The cards flying around is decoupled from the cards in play in a way that you often don't understand the play order. The pause before discarding a card can last longer than completing a turn, for example. The center row doesn't refresh quickly and often has gaps, which also make understanding the AI gameplay difficult. There are too few display options: can't make sure text is always-visible on cards in the supply, you can't have the computer do its thinking without popping up an intermediate card box (like for the Sentry card).

This is another of the great tabletop games with digital ports ruined by bad UI. The missing translations, half-working achievements, and insane UI described above make this something that is best played in other formats. I played a lot to consider if I'd be happy paying for the expansions. I won't be buying them.

Its a good game b/c I can play with friends, but the graphics try to be too fancy and end up obscuring critical things, the camera moves where it wants to regardless of where you want it to, and the interface is generally slow and non-responsive (and the game itself is huge gigs for looking average/terrible).

I was a fan of the physical game, it's been great to play with faraway friends. Works smoothly.

Pretty good UI, there are only a few times that I find myself constrained by trying to act too quickly, I set the camera to static but there are still a few effects I wish I could turn off. Audio is not great, but I usually leave it off.

Cross platform purchases and campaign progress sync works well in my experience. The core game by itself is fun, I haven't sprung for any expansions yet. It would be cool to have free-play weekend for the expansions to help decide from the massive list what I should get next.

UI needs improvements. Animations of some monster powers are useless and distracting. There is an undo button, but messing up at the end of your turn (like discard order) can't be fixed. You click the wrong card in your hand frequently because they shift around as you click through them (hence, getting discard order wrong). End of game sometimes happens without knowing exactly why, since it goes from monster order being drawn to the end of game screen too quickly to track. Likewise, if the monster order comes up twice in a row it isn't always clear what is happening or why. Some power cards disappear before you have to make selections to fulfill them, so you aren't always sure what you're doing (eg, it tells you to discard, but you end up discarding 3 times, or you discard and then take damage).
