Excellent
In a word...NICE! David Sirlin knows how to make a game. For those of you who play Yomi, you will love this. For those of you who dont heres a great place to start. Its user interface is great and makes sense.
It has an amazing tutorial (I am a seasoned Yomi tabletop player but wanted to see how they approached it) that covers all the rules and some basic strategy, but leaves you to your own devices to use that knowledge to "pass" the tutorials.
In the single player game, youre not stuck with a predicable, dumb opponent. You can choose easy or hard, and both have a decent challenge.
You can play online as well and its cross-platform, so you can play with people on their home computers. Survival mode is done well, too.
If I were to ask for one thing, it would be to have a way to just look at the decks and see what each character has to offer.
For the price, you cant beat this. For a total of $20 you get all 20 characters and unlimited online play. To put that in perspective you should note that the complete tabletop version is $100, and thats just for the 10 base characters.
So to sum it all up, this is an amazing app. It plays well and is fun for seasoned players and is a great place for new players to get started. The easiest 5-star rating Ive ever given.
Heres to Puzzle Strike making the jump to iOS next!
