Quotes (from this video)
- Goblivion the definitive edition.
- I randomly saw it on someone's list for a really fun solo game and boy does it not disappoint.
- It's addicting.
- It's actually quite snappy to play and it's a really fun take on a deck builder where you're going to be upgrading your cards by removing them and replacing them with better cards that you have over here.
- What our goal for this game is twofold. One is to protect the castle from being overrun and that means we have to have at least one or more resources here anytime during the game. If ever we have no resources we lose the game.
- We win the game by protecting against these enemies and then taking on the four boss cards because I'm going to play on normal difficulty.
- Our first part of setup is to create our castle deck. We're going to start off with tons of really pathetic cards.
- The only cards that we can train are the one sword cards. But then, once we defeat our first enemy, we can do the two sword cards if we would like.
- As we defeat enemies, they will go into our hospital and then into our deck, and they become items that we can use, which is part of the fun of this game.
- One of your main goals for this game is to try and remove as many blue cards as possible.
- You can see at the start of the game your deck is pretty gosh darn terrible.
- This is why we need more resources, and we're going to burn Let's burn the pickpocket, I think.
- This is now where the game gets interesting because now we will start having some combat.
- Oh, this magic hat, copy one action. I'll take that.
- The reason the bodyguard is so important is now we're guaranteed to get an item next time.
- I really just wanted this card because its name is bro and my son says that all the time and I keep telling him, 'Dude, stop saying bro.' Of course I say dude. So, you know, I give him a hard time.
- This is what you need to do. You need to get lots of resource generation if you can.
- The one good thing is during our training step, we can try and get that mechanical guardian because I have that horned helmet.
- If I had not negated that, we'd be fighting five bosses instead of only four.
- Oh my gosh. Once all the enemies are defeated or we cannot push enemies, we end that portion of the game. It's now boss fighting time.
- Wow, is that a lot of fun.
- It's a masterpiece.
