Games worth discovering

 Surprising, A very creative game. I played 3 stages which took me 1.5 hours. Overall, Loop Knight is a game with innovations and some defects.

It spent 15 minutes to truly understand how to play it. I was very confused at the beginning. Now, let me summarize the core gameplay, I think it’s more appropriate to call it a game-level designer simulator. You need to arrange monster outposts and the building which can give your hero buff to make your hero become strong and finally defeat the final boss.

So it’s not a card game or idle game, it’s more like a strategy game to me.

 Well, let’s talk about the advantages. The idea was cool. Through your level design, let your hero gradually become stronger. It needs some technique to keep the balance. If you don't put enough obstacles, your hero can't grow to an appropriate level which can defeat the boss within a limited number of loops. On the one hand, if the level is too difficult, and your hero's recovery can't keep up with the HP loss of your battle, your hero is likely to die halfway. So it's a game that tests strategy.

Although I like this concept very much, the deficiency of the game is still obvious, that is, the tempo is relatively slow. Maybe the developers want us to plan the level carefully so they give us more time. But this makes the process of cultivating is monotonous and boring. And the game lacks randomness. I suggest adding some buildings that bring random events can greatly enhance the fun of the game. Another is that the effect of many cards is too small, such as Rock of life and Spring of life. One Rock of life only provides + 3 HP max. WTF, I need to build almost 50 of those things to get 150 more HP. Are you kidding me? It's really tired and unnecessary.  

I don't recommend for ordinary players to try. I pretty like this concept because I'm a strategy player, but this game may be boring for most players. But I still gave 4 stars because of the innovation and it's a early access. And I saw a lot of potentials, otherwise, I wouldn't write so much.
