9K View2022-10-25Indies’ Lies is what you might call a Spire-like. It takes the shape of Slay the Spire, then adds a few new twists to the formula. Some of these work, some of them don’t, but the end result is an engaging card-based dungeon crawler that’s easy to get addicted to. The game sees you traversing a dungeon, picking your route along a path littered with fights, events, shops, shrines and bosses. When you get in a scrap you use your deck of cards to attack and defend. Take down the enemies and you can move onto the next room.
Gameplay
I actually like interesting innovations this game brought. Additional characters with their own decks add another tactical layer, where we decide to care for companions or use them as expendable material (there are even cards encouraging this type of play). Rune cards that can be attached to other cards for additional effect (hello, Monster Train) seem cool, but do not add anything significantly game-changing. The best gameplay decision is that when acquiring new cards you can choose to replace existing cards: never daw this in any other game, and I think it is great how we can finally get rid of initial weak cards without too much effort.
The Talent system is an interesting way to replace relics. They are still random, but provide some freedom of choice, which is always a nice thing to have. The random encounters are kinda ok (what would you expect of random encounters?), but I would personally like a bit more variety. Oh, and dungeon map, though innovative, looks a bit confusing, not allowing to adequately plan the road ahead of time.
Now, two biggest flaws of the game is the lack of variety and lack of synergy. Since all characters share the same card pool, it does not matter which one we pick. I played three first characters and got exactly the same gameplay. In fact, choosing different companions randomizes the game much more than choosing different heroes.
While the game introduces a lot of cards with various effects, most of them poorly work with each other. Instead of relying on specific conditions which may never occur, I'd rather pick the card that does most damage. And if players start thinking this way, it means the developers made something fundamentally wrong.
You guys now can play the Knight DLC on cellphones,hope you enjoying it!(p≧w≦q)

DEEPLY CUSTOMIZABLE ROGUELIKE DECKBUILDER?MAYBE!
Actually,I myself am a non-meat Roguelike-Deckbuilding enthusiast (and of course not very knowledgeable.Before played this game,I only tried Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel.(x
When talking about RoguelikeDBG,Slay The Spire is always a masterpiece that can't be detoured,now it still keeps 97% positive reviews out of more than 90,000 reviews on steam!
Now back to the main topic,when I see Indies'Lies for the first time,the whole picture tone makes me feel more gentle and harmonious.Unless you hate the style of the game,or the cards, character states and tips for newcomers to the tutorial make the game easy to learn.

Okay let's start like that.I rarely write about games but as a fan of the anime and the games I am disappointed with the game . I played Dual links and it was an okay game with events and stuff but I got bored and I stopped .So when I saw that new game I was excited to get back but wasn't prepared for that. They basically ruined the game according to me duels are supposed to be fast phased battles and bow waiting for unlimited time for my opponent to make a move if he know he knows . Long stand by phase long draw phase basically waist of time .The other thing are those overpowered decks meta decks or what ever they are called cmon on my turn I am supposed to develop a strategy and I am sitting there basically watching how the other guy is activating endless chain summoning monster after monster above 3000 atk PTS with endless effects . In stead of trying cards and strategies you are playing with the same 40 cards of 2-3 copies so you can draw and do the same thing over and over again .All of the other cards are just for collection no creativity or thinking what so ever just repeat and repeat until someone with even crazier effects bust you up .

I love the unique characteristics of each card that add depth and excitement to the gameplay. Experience an extraordinary tabletop adventure.
