Intresting. I love that it is more like an abstract, board gameish type of thing. On top no movement on the battlefield - hurray! Flanking? Cross the Battlefield in one turn? Fly over obstacles? Gone! Allways felt that these were kind of superfluous elements of strategical depth in gameplay. Imho this kind of things don't bring much excitement for the player but make the AI programming much more difficult and lead to arduous disccussions about the right type of simulation like hexes vs square, size of the battlefield and so on - all factors that add complexity without necessarily improving gameplay ...

tldr: Back to basics - nice!

I agree too many 'free' games are far too expensive to play; this may be one of them; but the purchasing diamonds is one way this game is supposed to make money. We cannot allow hack tools to be posted here that essentially are a type of theft. jeff

I don't really know what's going on there, but the battle system does not look very engaging. The rest of the game is put together nicely though.

Hmm, cute indeed. Wonderful graphics. Are any puzzles in?

Anyway from me :tsup:

This looks fun but is it another 'free to play' but in reality you need to spend a ton of money on gems, or something in order for the game to be playable? Like cash of clans? I'd love to just buy the game for a single flat rate.

Looks rather cute and it must be fun to spend some time when there's nothing else to do with your phone. The video looks like more fun than H7.

Another CARD game? IOS and Android is full of them. And this one has no animation even, just nice drawings and flashy effects....
I am sorry, but y'know, I want my game I play on a handheld computer to have actual GRAPHICS. These things can handle 3D animation these days! And yet half of the online games feature paper cut-outs. Yes, I know, cheaper to animate. But to me, lazy.

Also, I expected something better from the great JVC than another such clone.

Then again, it was a folly of me to expect a good turn based strategy for a handheld device. Clash of Heroes was the last such game. Even Etherlord is totally different these days:

I cannot tell that you are being sarcastic, or your expectations were really THAT low. :wall:
