Try something else, gwent for example. Much more player friendly and entertaining. Expand

    The best game in its genre. One of the only games in which you can relax. But unfortunately, it can be boring, so I can’t put 10, but 9 is possible.

    A game that has gone completely off the rails and become an RNG nightmare. A real nightmare, I played the game for some time and had fun, and every year luck and bad luck had more and more to do with winning. A true nightmare. There is actually a card printed thats purpose is to discover the PERFECT card for the situation. Its absurd. Its a shame how awful this game has become. Truly bad.

    I don't usually write a review unless it's something I'm passionate about. I've been playing Hearthstone for years on and off. When it's a good game it's pretty fun, unfortunately this game is horribly balanced and exceptionally greedy. You must have the best cards to play this game properly, there are 10 classes in hearthstone, I can afford to only play one without shelling out hundredsI don't usually write a review unless it's something I'm passionate about.

You must have the best cards to play this game properly, there are 10 classes in hearthstone, I can afford to only play one without shelling out hundreds of dollars. I have already shelled out hundreds of dollars in purchases of this game and I am constantly disapointed with the Dev teams choices. I like to play control, I prefer there to be some sort of thought and skill put into a card game, however with their recent expansion Ashes of Outland the meta has become mindless repetitive boring and extremely aggresive. The Dev team for Hearthstone is so abhorrantly terrible at balancing their own game it's ridiculous. I suspect they do it on purpose with new expansions because they're greedy and want higher sales for the more overpowered cards before they nerf them, either way what charm this game has initially is lost because of the extremely high cost of entry and absolutely abbysmal balancing. 2/10.

    WELL MET. Thank you for all the tons of crap fed to players, doing absolutely nothing for years to improve the game even a bit. It's sad how the homelike game turned into just another chinese mobile game. Blizzard, get out of the western world, go to your chinese homeland, do this world a favor.

    Garbage high roll everything and win the game with RNG stupid ass **** every expansion they demand MORE MONEY

    Even the game mode that shouldn't require money REQUIRES MONEY, oh you want to pick three heros instead of two? Just give us 20 **** dollars and you can high roll every single game.

    complete GARBAGE

    The Battlegrounds section has been fun for starters, but the RNG algorithm changed so many times it's become a huge turn-off, having RNG in a game is great, and it keeps the game fresh, BUT, hitting a RNG wall where you constantly lose because some retard developer taught he coded it properly ( when it isn't coded properly ) IS NOT SOMETHING PLEASANT.
    Looking back since the game came out,

    Looking back since the game came out, and I've payed someone 100$ for a beta invitation, the first 3 expansions of the game where a small developer team made everything and kept it simple & enjoyable was great.
    This game needs transperency on the RNG and clearly prove how the math works behind, because it's like playing roulette casino with your brain, and it's annoying.

    The game collects information about your cards and deck and then interferes into the game process so that there is absolutely no random but a calculated and predefined set of action happening.
    You can thoroughly think over your turns but eventually the computer just wont let you win if your win rate is reaching certain percentage.

    A fun game to play casually but you have to pay to get any decent cards and it gets boring after a while. The good thing is that it's barely any storage and its free.

    It's not best TCG, mechanics are to simple, farm gives you small rewards, and even after all this time we have no automatic tournaments. Personally I can't understand, why Blizzard didn't give players new portraits for achieving 100/500/1500/2000 wins & more rewards, they easily could keep players motivated to continue playing. Sure, they did partially make up for this few monthes ago, butIt's not best TCG, mechanics are to simple, farm gives you small rewards, and even after all this time we have no automatic tournaments.

    A garbage game at it's best. Ever Since Blizzard introduced Galakron into the meta everyone plays only those kind of decks. Everyone on that game are a bunch of brainless copycats who copy professional decks just so they can prove their good. Avoid this game and its micro transactions.

    Pay to win garbage. Mechanics suck. If you want to pay this game and not get your ass handed to you by 12 yo, break out your credit card because otherwise youre pretty well hosed

    Hearthstone is one of the best card games for pc nowadays. The simple mechanics and cool animations makes it so good. I'd like to give it a 10, but there is one thing that upsets me, the fact that is too pay to win.

    Es el peor juego de cartas de lejos. SI puedes evitar jugarlo, hazlo. Se parece más a una tragaperras (necesitas pagar para divertirte y es todo pura aleatoriedad) que a otros juegos de cartas como Magic The Gathering. Una basura en la que cada nueva expansión fomentan el powercreep para que tus cartas antiguas sean peores que las nuevas y te veas forzado a seguir pagando.

    If you want to support a shady and greedy company that throws human rights under the bus for money, then this is the game for you. Blizzard cares about nothing except for money and therefore it is immoral to support such a bad company. The game is also a boring mess with a lot of pay to win elements and bad rng

    This game is boring, highly repetitive, not fun after first few plays. I mean, I enjoyed it when i first got it, but it gets super boring after a while, and cards are not cool. Recommend sticking with magic the gathering instead.

    Blizzard has become a company of repressive, anti-democratic thought police. By playing Overwatch you are actively supporting the Chinese Communist Party in its crackdown on free expression. Boycott all Blizzard games and do not give them another penny.

    When Blizzard announced they were making a digital CCG, we all expected it to look and sound beautiful, and there was little doubt that it would be well-balanced, but I don’t think anyone anticipated this level of sophistication and subtle brilliance.

    Simple rules, high production values, low system requirements and huge tactical freedom make Hearthstone one of the best card games available. And if you take into account the free-to-play model – it’s the best one. [05/2014, p.62]

    A fine example of a great free-to-play game. Hearthstone is not only an addictive and well designed card game, but absolutely fair with gamers that do not wish to spend money on it.
