Facts

  • The topmost row with the arrows are not part of the combat, it just shows what the opponent will play on his *next* turn.
  • Creatures attack at the end of your turn. If there is a card in front of them, they will deal damage to that, otherwise they will deal damage to the opponent.
  • Two flying creatures don't block each other.
  • In the Campfire, 'feed' them a poisonous animal to get multiple upgrades.

  • Preordered for 134 DKK. It's out at the end of the month, August 30th.

  • My first game of Inscryption was two hours of spookiness. It's very cool so far, and I like how elegantly the game ramps up in complexity as I'm playing.
  • Oh no, I failed The Angler again!
  • 2022-09-21
  • Got the Face to Face trophy. - The Campfire poison trick is insanely overpowered. I end up playing 5/1 cards with 0 casting cost. Crazy. I beat The Angler *and* the Trapper / Trader.
  • Got the Enduring Victory trophy. - I destroyed The Moon and defeated Leshy. And then something *really* weird happened.
  • 2022-09-23
  • Got the Balance of Power trophy. - Act 2, apart from being an early 1990s DOS game, retains the 'Beasts' card battle rules of Act 1, and adds 3 new sets of cards with different rules to the mix, 'Magicks', 'Dead', and 'Technology'. It's overwhelming at first, but I managed deck-building by focusing on the 'Beasts' cards. I eventually beat all 4 'Scrybes' and entered Act 3.
  • Act 3 returns to the visual style of Act 1, but now only using the 'Technology' cards, and an open-world map that seems to correspond to world map in Act 2. The 'Technology' cards take some getting used to, and I find myself enjoying this act less than Act 1, while still being compelled to complete the game.
  • 2022-09-29
  • Got the Essence Capture trophy. - I defeated The Photographer (Act 3). The photo mechanic was neat, I could capture a board state and restore it as many times as I want.
  • 2022-10-02
  • Got the Painter's Servant trophy. - Defeated The Unfinished Boss.
  • Completed the game. The final battles were completely nuts and displayed different modes of play and art styles, while the game itself was being deleted.
