Duelyst is a turn-based, deckbuilding PvP game with amazing style, intuitiveness, and music. It gets a certain type of gameplay right that I think a lot of amateur tabletop and digital game builders like me dream about. Unfortunately, there is not enough variety in the number of playable decks and cards available. This is one of the few games I have to give a thumbs down due to my interest for the game outpacing the actual content of the game. After a few weeks I became frustrated that I'd run out of things to learn and the ranked meta quickly became stale. I would gladly come back to play a Duelyst game, including a sequel, if the devs somehow got the budget to scale the game 5-10x what the current scope is.
