Looks like the game got stuck here: https://imgur.com/a/a3HXC8c
Could not drop any of those cards, nor click "pass"
Thanks for sending it in!
Im looking into this case, there seems to be an issue there for sure :/
I think the art is very good and the gameplay is unique. I think the game would be improve if there is some special skill or event that affect each opponent's battle not just different item dealing different damage. Otherwise, the game is quite unique on its own.
First of all, thanks for taking the time to comment and the kind words <3
Yes, we totally agree. Next version we want to work on those differentiators, where active skills and other factors play a bigger role on the outcome of the game.
