Key Verbatims

Citations are automatically translated to English by AI.

"Deep lore based on The Witcher universe."

"Gwent features distinctive mechanics: players earn points on board over 3 rounds, play one card per turn, passing ends rounds, no mana costs, equal card draws. Battle of resource management favors better resource application."

"Great art"

"Patches are always messy with bugs. Some balance decisions are questionable, though developers fix them later."

"Playing regularly means you won't need to use real money for Arena. Kegs can be earned through gameplay rewards."

"Unique gameplay with nothing in common with other card games like Hearthstone or Magic. Very tactical and distinctive."
