    Gordian Quest sin duda es un juego excelente, uno de los mejores juegos de cartas para un jugador que he jugado y ya van unos cuantos. La campaña no tiene una historia memorable, es cierto, pero cumple bien. Y fuera de eso, todo lo que es la jugabilidad, la diferencia entre los distintos personajes, la mejora de los mismos y las barajas, etc. Todo ello es simplemente inmejorable, y ademásGordian Quest sin duda es un juego excelente, uno de los mejores juegos de cartas para un jugador que he jugado y ya van unos cuantos. La campaña no tiene una historia memorable, es cierto, pero cumple bien. Y fuera de eso, todo lo que es la jugabilidad, la diferencia entre los distintos personajes, la mejora de los mismos y las barajas, etc. Todo ello es simplemente inmejorable, y además tiene básicamente contenido infinito, siempre puedes ir haciendo más cosas, subiendo más niveles, haciendo dungeons y cosas así aleatorias y más difíciles. Los enemigos también están muy bien diseñados, con variedad de estilos y ataques. Y, finalmente, creo que es de los pocos juegos de cartas que consiguen hacer que el posicionamiento en el mapa de combate realmente sea muy significativo, interesante y divertido.

    Gráficamente el juego peca un poco en el sector de las animaciones, pero las ilustraciones de personajes y escenarios están muy bien. El sonido también cumple bien, con una música que acompaña bien a los eventos y efectos de sonido apropiados. Y, al menos en mi experiencia, no me he encontrado con ningún bug.

    Por todo ello, sin duda Gordian Quest es muy recomendable. Un 9.    … Expand

    Deep, varied turn-based deckbuilding RPG with accessability options to switch off permadeath. I like the non-grim style and the perfectly polished UI works great with remote play on tablets. Story mode with 2D maps and quests is a great addition to the linear and repetitive structure of Slay the spire, which playstyle is covered with "realm mode". It's hard to put the game down.Deep, varied turn-based deckbuilding RPG with accessability options to switch off permadeath.

    However, the many (many!) mechanics are not perfectly balanced yet, a lot of the options thrown at you are not properly introduced and kind of overwhelming, as it is very easy to **** up your build while progressing, at least the first time you play. Has a steep difficulty curve too, the first two acts are easy-peasy but then it may start to become really difficult.    … Expand

    Gordian Quest is a trio of genres that show what a good and balanced game looks like. It is certainly one of the better gaming experiences I have been through so far in 2022. It does have some minor issues, but nothing that will distract you from its terrific and balanced gameplay.

    Gordian Quest draws inspiration from old-school RPGs, Dungeons & Dragons, and deck-builders like Slay the Spire, yet it proudly stands on its own. With deep, addictive gameplay and endless replayability with multiple play modes, Gordian Quest boldly blazes its own trail. It’s rare that a game can draw from so many sources and have the end product feel so refined, yet this game delivers in spades. I can’t recommend this game enough to fellow deck-builder and RPG lovers.

    Overall, Gordian Quest does a great job in implementing various gameplay elements and making them work together. While the Campaign Mode could have featured a better narrative and variety of activities, it still serves as a good entry point in the game as a long tutorial of sorts. From there, the game features a lot of replayability due to the number of classes and skills. As a deckbuilding RPG, Gordian Quest does a great job with the deckbuilding portion and is worth a look for fans of the genre.
