I especially reccomend this game to card games players, turn based combat players, chess players, and people that feel they would like the experience of making progression in a game, but they wish they didn't had to sit for 2 hours straight and just play in small intervals in the day,
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It really likes to rope you in with its really good graphics and animation and even the Lippy voice actor, but after the hype is gone and the dust settles, you see nothing but pay to win mechanics.
Multiplayer
