Shotgun King: the Final Checkmate Review (dogosrevenge)
This game is just too RNG dependent for me to recommend this game to anyone the higher throne modes are almost unplayable because it takes minimum 2-3 turns to kill one piece I have gotten to throne 14 and ONLY 1 PERCENT OF PLAYERS HAVE GOTTEN THERE so UNLESS YOU ARE THE ONE PERCENT THAT CAN EVEN BEAT THIS SHIT YOU DON'T GET IT I really think this game is good but the cards are so unbalanced some of the black cards meant to help you MAKE IT HARDER and some of the white cards meant to make it harder MAKE IT EASIER I don't understand how you can make a game BASED OFF CHESS TO BE RNG DEPENDENT why do rooks have 8 hp why does my shotgun the most inaccurate piece of shit possible why does the game have the kings court card? well anyway lets talk about some of the black cards you have a card that makes you gain one firepower every ten turns so half the time you get 4 more firepower and another card that gives you a helpful moat that makes it very diffucult to be killed and another card that lets you cheat death and another that lets you gain extra turns every time you use a soul which can be every turn and a card that lets you jump over white pieces and avoid getting attacked but no lets give the player bloodless coup which becomes useless after turn 3 or fearsome which practicallly does nothing or patience so you waste a slot or bold plan so you waste a slot or flagstone which half the time is useless but lets talk about white cards get another rook lose the game a quarter of the white cards give an extra rook court of the king guess you will just lose analysis paralysis fuck you mangonel fuck you knightmare guess you'll die--------- I do really like this game but if you want to play the game for more than 3 hours dont bother buying it There is other stuff that really sucks like the folly sheilds not protecting you if you kill a piece blocking another piece and other examples that will end your run because you were not paying complete attention the shuffle mechanic sucks it just adds more rng and does not work with homecoming because that would make it useful grenades are cool but of course they are rng dependent I love binding of isaac and enter the gungeon and otther rougelikes that I have put a lot of time into those games but this one takes the cake for being completely based of luck (sorry for being so negative I actually like the game put it makes me want to pierce my eyes with a sounding rod seriously though unless you are only planning to play this game for a new fun SHORT experience than don't buy it unless you are a sadist) good luck!!!!
