Don't pass on WildfrostGame just because its aesthetic is a little cuter than others in its genre - underneath the charm, there's an excellent game, too. Our 4.5/5 review: Wildfrost
Deadpan Games’ new roguelite card combat game Wildfrost is impressive. The meticulously designed, visually engaging, unassumingly complex experience shines in harmony with the game's immediate cartoon veneer. Its early hours are not substantively different from its tenth or twentieth, but Wildfrost’s mechanical depth manages to be much more effective and absorbing than most other deckbuilders boasting much larger card libraries.
Monster Train persists as the most readily available comparison and inspiration; that contemporary classic deckbuilder shares Wildfrost’s prioritization of hero cards, leaders, boss fights, and lane positioning, but there’s much more in-battle flexibility here.
Wildfrost's different tribes are all worth spending time with - in fact, the sacrifice mechanics for one of them feel quite similar to Monster Train's Umbra clan - but players should note that tribe selection is always up to chance. This can be somewhat irritating and limiting, because there's never any assurance that all three tribes will be available for the next run after being unlocked; players just have to roll with the RNG punches.
