Krosmaga: Thoughts

I can't say that I'm a deep player of cards games, but since I started Hearthstone I give a chance to few games. The game that actually most suprise me was Krosmaga . The first impression of the game seems like a more complex game than Hearthstone, but actually after few matches I could understood the game dynamic (of course not all the combos).

• The basic gameplay is far from Hearthstone. Each player has 5 Dofus divided in 5 lines, composed by 7 tiles. In order to win you need to destroy 2 real Dofus (2 of 5 are fake ones). The minions summoned move through a single line at the end of the player turns, based on movement value. In movement phase, if 2 minions face adyacent tiles the fight happen in a similar way to Hearthstone (but you can't decide if not attack). 
• There are 10 different classes. The game do not have anything similar to a Hero Power, so the class is defined purely by the cards. Classes have keywords or mechanics linked to them, so there is not the feeling that all classes do the same. On the other hand this causes some valance isues.
• The gold can be obtained by quests or wining (also by achievements). On interesting thing is that there are packs that includes (at least) one legendary so you can decide if going for legendaries or get bigger collection (are more expensive than the normal ones, but not super expensive, like 5::1).
• Decks are 45 cards.
• I would expected that the queues to play were longet. Of course there are less players than hearthstone, but most of the time seems that find a match is not a problem.

I would recommend this game, but there are 2 mayor issues to consider. The development of the game is in "stand-by" so there is not new content at this moment (for what I know). Also this affect to the balance of the game.

So, any thoughts about it?

I played Kromaga a few years ago and I loved the game for a the time I played it.  But truthfully I just never got super invested in it and eventually lost my interest in the game.  Which I should try to play it again sometime seeing as I bought the "welcome bundle" back when I created my account.  I think it was only $5, but still... Should make sure I get my money's worth out of that game before it shuts down completely!
