Wildfrost is a tactical deckbuilding game set in a world plagued by an eternal winter. Gather a band of heroes, defeat enemies, and restore balance to the world. The game features procedurally generated maps with dynamic attack counter system adds depth and suspense to the gameplay experience. Easy to learn but hard to master, making it great for both new and seasoned players.

Buy

What we like:
  • Visually engaging and unassumingly complex
  • Flawless UI/UX
  • Great value for its asking price
  • Somewhat simple in its formalities, but every battle is oddly simple once you understand how to play.
What could be improved:
  • Lack of an in-game glossary
  • Steep learning curve
  • Can be time-consuming
  • Death is all but assured
  • May need some substantial DLC or post-launch updates to reach the heights of its peers.
