Runeveil

Good premise, great visuals! Familiar enough to know I would like it, weird enough to justify its existence! Keep at it :)

much easier to get into than I anticipated. very fun to build your deck. (very little math involved) definitely worth checking out

In short: Runeveil is a polished, creative, and highly replayable deckbuilder with satisfying mechanics, great build variety, and developers who clearly care about the game and its community. Runeveil is a genuinely impressive deckbuilder, especially for an Early Access game. The different characters and deck types feel distinct, and there are plenty of interesting synergies to experiment with. I especially enjoy the card-ordering mechanic, as it adds an extra layer of strategy and makes every turn feel more engaging. The game gives you a lot of freedom when building your deck. You can remove cards you no longer need, focus on specific combinations, or mix different deck types during a run to create some really fun and unexpected builds. It feels balanced enough that many different strategies can work, which makes each run feel fresh. There are still a few minor bugs and some mechanics may take a run or two to fully understand, but the developers are very active, responsive, and clearly care about player feedback. The game already feels surprisingly polished and offers great value for its price. If you enjoy roguelike deckbuilders such as Slay the Spire, but want something with its own identity and mechanics, Runeveil is definitely worth trying. I started playing just to check it out and ended up losing track of time. I’m really excited to see how it grows.
