Griftlands is a charming game (think Klei's other games like ONI and maybe Don't Starve. -- Haven't played that one.) It has a good tutorial, UI/UX, controls, and RNG/strategy design to make the combat and negotiations fun, engaging, and a joy to play almost every time.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The stories and gameplay of the 3 playable characters get progressively more fun and interesting, so there's certainly something to look forward to.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a steep difficulty curve but once you've got your deck the way you like it, it's doable.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
"Griftlands" is a deckbuilding, rogue-like game with beautiful cartoonish visuals and a well made world with deep lore, factions, relationships, rivalries and scheming.
