Card Thief - Hype Impressions/Is It Legit?

Card Thief's art style gives off a Tim Bottom vibe and it really caught my eyes. And the gameplay? Totally refreshing. To begin with, I hate the tutorials in the game. It confused me. I prefer to get myself familiar with the rules through playing the 'real' game. Card Thief mixes stealthy game and solitaire style card game together. The goal is to sneak around and steal treasure without being caught by the guards. It's hard to explain the rules here. You have to play it yourself. But remember, it's important to calculate how many stealthy points left and strategize your next step.

This has slowly become another favorite game to add to my list Using solitaire-type mechanics with dodging guard looking for you with each move and making sure to survive as long as you can Story: Sneak in the shadows, extinguish torches, pickpocket guards and steal valuable treasures without getting caught. In your thief hideout, you can use your stolen goods to unlock powerful equipment cards. For each heist, you can use 3 equipment cards to become a skillful master thief.

PROS: - unique and quirky art style - varied fantasy soundtrack-detailed sound effects-deeply layered mechanics (status effects, turn mechanics, passive/active bonuses, mixture of win conditions, etc.) -gameplay is a mixture of Card Thief and Maze Machina with a few added roguelike deck-building tropes (such as adding cards, strengthening cards, receiving passive bonuses, various encounters, etc.)
