Another card game I buy for the setting and artstyle (and the goodies), more than for the gameplay itself...

low rated
Britney got engaged.
...and this game looks good too!^ So far Psychological Deckbuilder is my favourite computer card game, but 19th century circus in USA is something out of the... ring. Looking at gameplay can see realizm of those days and it isn't funny : ) Demo would be nice if possible. I feel entertainly interested in. Wishlisting.

Interesting.

Art style is very Darkest Dungeon.

Wishlisted.

Interesting setting, nice change from pure combat.

I'm looking forward to getting my KS backer code for this and firing it up :)

Who knows, maybe it can hold a candle or two to Slay the Spire? Setting and art are unique, so that's a start. WHat are other card games that had a disappointing (or satisfying) gameplay for you?

I'll leave my possitive impressions :)
For the gameplay, I would specially recommend:
Slay The Spire
Trials of Fire
Deep Sky Derelicts
The Magister
Gordian Quest

...although there are other card games with good gameplay and many others I haven't even tried, tbh.

For the art, any of the ones above (maybe not The Magister, it's kinda cute but not really an outstanding artwork) and
Banners of Ruin and The Amazing American Circus. I bought both of them mainly attracted by their setting and art, and I found gameplay for those two games OK but not among the best things I've played... Although I still need to play a bit more of The Amazing American Circus to reach a reliable verdict.

You'll be happy to know the joke was already made in the COMING SOON thread.

This is getting decent review, I'm shocked.

Nice list! I will def get Ring of Pain, as I've consumed the demo, and I am called by Banners of Ruin as I am partial to anthro animals. Tainted Grail: Conquest is also dark and sexy looking and has good reviews. A disappointing one here on GOG was Neurodeck - judging from the demo. Fate Hunters free version was also very meh.
Well of course Talisman games are card games as well, and very good.

At first I was like "Cool, a circus management game!"

But then I was like "Oh, it's another card game...."
