Looks like I finally broke the game. Too bad max resources in a loop are capped, even with the one perk that leaves 10% of your stuff at the campfire.

It took me 4 hours to beat the first boss because I'm retarded and shit is not always obvious.
- Beacon is actually buffing the mobs and buffed skeletons are not nice.
- Storm Temple was doing more damage to me than the mobs.
- I'm not sure you can beat the boss without the correct perks.
- RNG is strong with this one.

There's an achievement for beating the Lich on your first run, so it's clearly doable. You wouldn't even have perks unlocked.
I have it. It was easy to do since I had played the Demo and knew what to do.

Just did that by accident, nuked "A Village?" from the tile I wanted to build a real village on. Pretty cool boss fight. But they took my loot and threw me into main menu. Ffs!

got my quick boss spawning setup
- get 4x watchtowers to lvl 2
- grove + spiders on all 4x closest tiles
- libraries around the loop to trade tiles
- skeletons around libraries

dont spend environment tiles early on, hope for library
Exchange cards to land on setup above. More enemies, more cards. Enemy books from library award many cards on death
Goal is to have no more than 2 enemies in combat outside of watchtowers. Towards the end I brake this rule.
Once setup is complete, start exchanging cards until you cover everything in river and environment tiles.
Even on unlucky runs I get lich on 6th, priestess on 8th and huntsman on 10th loop

Game is repetitive and shallow, not worth your time.

*Plays non-stop for days on end since the moment the game was released*

Never change, codex. Never change.

I never argued that it is not worth the time,on the contrary,it is a decent time waster....tho bit too small. You could beat it in 6 hours.

You could beat the first boss in 6 hours, sure, but not the whole game without prior knowledge or a guide. I'd like to see a full blind playthrough of this game completed in 6 hours. That'd be impressive.

men... how do you beat 4th expedition?
I did 1-3 each boss 3 times. On 4th I barely survive lich, somehow can make it to the princess, and die...

Looks like killing the first boss is mostly about pumping up attack speed and evasion. 3-4 oblivion cards to destroy his palace tiles helps too.

The thing is, you cannot even lose this game - all it does is eat more of your time by playing itself so you get more stuff and perks (until you eventually have enough to beat the bosses).

Though... did I just describe an RPG?

You can also build his shit in
Thx whoever said that in this thread

High dmg attack on the boss would suggest that defense is shit, evasion is king
Maxed evasion, 54%, lost very narrowly, needed a stronger weapon but mine had 15% evasion...

I dont quite get how card drops work, or item drops for that matter.
What influences quality and quantity.

Does a bigger deck influence anything?

There is an interesting strat to try to farm gear by just spamming enemy building and going for a vamp build.
This is what happened to me organically on first try, since I didnt understand what is happening...

Forests and a river + what ever is relevant for your class.

There really is a fad at the moment of dressing shit games up in nostalgic aesthetics to make an easy buck.

This has been going on for years now. But at least this game's art looks kinda good, compared to most others, which look like shit on top of being bad games.

And then there's the other trend: No more textures/details, regardless of whether it's a 2d indie game or high budget 3d title. More and more devs cut more and more corners and sell it as "artistic choice" and retarded shit like that.
Another one is procedural genertion—build these fucking worlds/maps/levels by hand you retards! That's your job! And no, proc gen doesn't help replayability in most cases...
