    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There's a lot of potential here, but some poor balancing makes the game less fun than it could be.

    The most blatant flaw is in how the final boss battle is balanced. Once you clear a run, your victorious team becomes the final boss of future runs. This is a neat mechanic, and could be a lot of fun if balanced correctly, but unfortunately it's not.

    When your old team becomes the new final boss, every stat gets cranked up to absurd levels. If you clear a run with a sufficiently powerful team, you can get yourself stuck with a new final boss that you can never defeat.

    As far as I can tell, there's no way to reset the final boss either without resetting all of your progress and unlockables.

    Fortunately, the core of the game is solid. The most major flaws can be addressed with a balance patch, and I hope they release one soon.    … Expand

    Great Deckbuilder, probably the best one i ever played. Very colorful and fun graphics. It's difficult and I'm incompetent.

    Wildfrost is highly recommended, especially if you're a fan of the genre. The fun visuals will draw you in, but the addicting gameplay will keep you there. Just be prepared to die, a lot.

    Wildfrost has a visual simplicity that hides a depth of gameplay that deserves to be explored. All of its mechanics are carefully thought out to give us an engaging and refreshing experience.
