Goblin Stone Review (Le druide)

Good little game. The art style and music are great.
However, it's rather bad in terms of gameplay:
- In combat, the character who plays their turn goes to the front line. Why? What is the point? Especially since it's almost impossible to predict who will be on the front line since the characters' turn order isn't displayed : On the timeline, a character in third position can very well play before the other two because they're "faster". So the fights are extremely messy and unsatisfying. I really don't understand this design.
- To evolve your base, you need goblin souls, so you need your goblins to die/retire. This makes your goblins consumables. Why not, but what's the point? What does this add to the game other than more cumbersome management? So if I play well and make sure not to lose my goblins, I am penalized? Really?
Anyway, there are other points to address but I'm lazy. I'm going to finish this game but in small doses because it's poorly thought out. It's more of a game to relax with nice graphics and nice music; But in terms of pure gameplay it's pretty bad.
