## Dawncaster Reviews in United States

### ***** "thank your support for chinese location"
I love this game and all DLC，worth this price，great！
-- 多谢55, 2025-01-02

### ****- "Fun game, not fun replay"
Really fun game! They desperately need a save option or more ways to heal yourself during the game- you must completely start from the beginning every time ou play the game and there’s minimal healing available.  you have virtually no control over deck building since reward cards are completely random.   Be prepared to play the first 2-3 levels about 100x on repeat  because there is just so little control over how far you can go in the game
-- MAK13131:, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Unbalanced"
Some characters automatically lose against some enemies.
-- Deselnopun, 2024-11-25

### ***** "Surprisingly Amazing"
I just stumbled on this game while searching for games like slay the spire and hearthstone. This game is so addictive! If you like any deck building games you’ll definitely like this one. Worth the price. I also bought the bundle for more stages and cards and i regret nothing! It’s even better!
-- davidoday, 2024-11-17

### ***** "Great offline game"
Good offline game for long airplane rides
-- Ocean :), 2024-11-14

### ***** "Fantastic"
I tend to only play games like solitaire, sodoku, mahjong etc. I decided to try this out and am hooked! First time getting into a deck building game. I keep discovering new levels of detail and options.
-- Cwood73, 2024-11-09

### ***** "Chinese language"
I like this game very much. Will there be Chinese language in the future?
-- xt18870816, 2024-11-02

### ****- "When will Chinese be added?"
When will Chinese be added?
-- 普通的的普通, 2024-10-15

### ***** "Highly Addictive Rogue-like Deckbuilder"
See many of the other highly positive reviews - they don’t exaggerate or over-inflate the high points of this game.   I feel like the developers really care about your experience and have mastered balancing game mechanics. I’ll be buying expansions both for the content they offer and because the developers truly deserve to have their effort recognized!
-- Nate0413, 2024-10-05

### ***** "Great variety and challenge"
Lots of cards to discover and combine in cool ways. I really like the color based energy system and some of the mechanics like cooking. Excited to see how the game evolves. It looks like they actually have card competitions in which the winners are added to game, great concept. 

Sometimes I wish instead of selecting the “explain” dialogue options for events such as shrines, that there was just a quick summary like “add random keyword to a card”. Also would appreciate being able to have some additional flexibility in the starting deck. (Less expensive upgrades)
-- Macktransit, 2024-10-03

### ***** "Outstanding Game"
The game is very fun and addicting. I love having a complete deck building game and don’t have waste money on packs like Hearthstone or MTG. What a refreshing game and full experience. I’ll be picking up the expansions as well for more game play and to support these devs. We need more developers to make games like this one.
-- TalGamer, 2024-09-22

### ***** "Better than Slay the Spire and Monster Train"
If you even recognize the names of the two games above, this one is a no brainer. 

It’s the new go-to, only rivaled by Night of the Full Moon.
-- Omegapixel, 2024-09-19

### ****- "Great Game just a purchase issue"
Really fun game. I love the play style and the deck building. I bought the Dawncaster origins bundle and it told me it failed but took the money from my account. And I’ve tried restore purchase a few times and it hasn’t given it to me. Other then that it’s a great game
-- HourOfRed, 2024-09-16

### ***** "Best deck builder out there!"
For those who enjoy endless replay ability and deck builders, this is the game for you. It’s virtually impossible to play the same game twice, and the infinite options makes this game a 5 star. Give it a shot, you’ll be glad you did!
-- MrSamuels, 2024-09-16

### ***-- "Not all cards work or needs a rule sheet/explainer that is easily accessible"
Rally doesn’t seem to work for me, but works for enemies if I play a card.
-- gotexaslonghorns, 2024-09-11

### ***** "Amazing"
Slightly unoriginal but done amazingly. 10/10 I’m addicted!!
-- Alex 7!7!7, 2024-09-02

### ***-- "Remove the time limit"
I've played dozens of card rpg games and this one is good it's just the time limit doesn't make sense. The unrealistic pressure while the battle is turn based is pretty weird,feels like developers just looking for an excuse to deduct our points when it's already hard to earn them.
-- Lodecakess, 2024-08-18

### *---- "Repetitive - luck based - misleading"
This game is equivalent to a bad video game knockoff of the movie groundhogs day. 

You will find yourself in an endless loop of repetitive dialog. 

The card “collecting” is not actually collecting and means nothing. It simply logs that you have encountered that card at some time in the game like a Pokédex. 

The leveling requires gems earned through challenges and by completing game runs. This would normally be okay, but being that you only get a few on runs that take half an hour or more of your time seems more like grinding. 

People comparing this or even saying it’s better than Slay The Spire are out of their minds.
-- Chucho3p, 2024-08-17

### ***** "Thoughtfully Designed"
Such a fun game. Easy to learn but tough to master. I’ve logged 80 hours and still look forward to every run.
-- happyflaggot1313, 2024-08-15

### ***** "One of the best Deckbuilding Games!"
As a boardgame designer myself with 2 Deckbuilding games under my belt, I can say that this game takes the mechanism to the 11th level. It does what a physical boardgame cannot do (efficiently), altering card types, adding key words, transforming energy types, etc. Most importantly, it’s a fun game that will make you think… a lot because if you die, your run ends. At first I was taken aback by that but after a few plays, this added to the tension and importance of selecting the right cards to add or cut from your deck. If you like Gloomhaven, Mage Knight, Dune: Imperium, or other modern games, this one won’t disappoint!
