    Aces and Adventures is a deck builder RPG with poker-powered combat. Journey through a world inspired by Norse and Middle Eastern mythology to save the Life Tree from the evil that gnaws at her roots.
    The Let's Try series is a way to preview / review games in order to get my first impressions through the first moments of gameplay.

      Ngl, I'm a huge poker fan and the combat is just so perfect, seems that suits don't matter though when it comes to the value of a hand. Still a must buy for me, lol.

    From the same creators as this game, they have a tactical roguelike RPG called Popup Dungeon, check it out, its fun. This while waiting for this game to release.

    I’m a voice actor of one of the playable characters: Ravenmyre! (Who didn’t appear in your Playthrough). As someone who doesn’t typically play this genre of game, I had a lot of fun with the demo! I can’t wait to see more folks discover this amazing game! Glad you had a good time playing it! The team behind A&A put a lot of passion into their work and it shows!

    I think the ability discard option refers to your hand at the end of combat, cause you only had 1 ability in your hand and couldn’t take the options for 2/3. Weird but interesting if you are rewarded for not using your abilities in combat

    All the UI elements are so crisp and nice in this game. The voiceover for everything is great as well. Art is good, colors are good, iconography is good. And the gameplay even looks fun!
    Low numbers for attack and defense seem to work well with the gameplay mechanics to make each decision feel significant. I like that the 52 card deck remains in use for calculating hand probabilities.

If so, I hope it remains glorious. If not, I hope you spontaneously grow the most luxurious mustache the world has ever seen :)

    • @Retromation
      @Retromation  Před 2 lety +1

      Ehh, they're adjacent certainly but they utilize the poker mechanics quite differently, and this has waaaaay more tabletop game DNA and gameplay is segmented into ~20-30 minute chunks instead of ~3 hour runs (which is a huge plus to me)

    This game looks like Hand of Fate without the incredibly fiddly combat part which is why I never bought either of them. I'm going to wishlist this one. I wish more people had played Popup Dungeon on YT as the few videos of it made me question just the heck how combat worked. But I do agree with "How is this so pretty?" since most indy games now look like absolute crap errr...sorry, I meant pixel graphics. Yeah, that's what I meant. ;)

      "13 Campaigns and 4 games for a total of 52 levels of escalating challenge" and 5 different characters to play them all with featuring nearly infinite deck combos. Not sure about file size if that is what you're referring to.

    at first it is wiered that you use poker hands ... and first i was ""what the f* is going on here?" and then "ahh now i see a system unfolding" ... the storytelling with the cards and the naration is great maybe there will be the possibility to chose a path and you get a random event card (i shoukd have watched just about 2 minutar further xD)... it is definetly one that i will keep an eye on!
