In-game event

v0.38 - new locations (+many other changes)

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey everyone!

We're moving fast towards the full release (some information about that soon!) and here is one of the last big updates before that.

Some cards/strategies that were very dominant (cheese cards for example) have been nerfed and the overall randomness of the game has been reduced with the change of how location events work.

Thanks to everyone for your support and feedback messages, they are very helpful <3

-Battle stats overview-

You can now view battle stats after battle.

It shows what every card and trait did so you can get a better idea of how your deck is performing.

-Location events change-

Location events now always have the same 3 options. This is to remove some of the randomness of the game which was especially punishing for new players. I've also added some new location events.

Full changelog v0.38.0

- 3 new hidden Zappy events
