    The price point for entry feels quite reasonable. There is a one-time promotion for new players that provides ten packs for $4.95. From there, bundles of packs, a pre-order for an expansion, and an “Equipment” tab which offers cosmetics like card backs also become available. Compared to all the other online card games out there, this feels perfectly average in asking price, but growing a collection as a free-to-play player feels somewhat slow by comparison.

    KARDS is a free to play WWII card battler that combines card battling with resource management. You'll need to think carefully about what cards you play and when if you want to succeed. There are some balance issues, but nothing that ruins the game entirely. Online matchmaking is the quickest I've ever seen.

    If you like tactical card battles and are not opposed to the WWII setting, Kards delivers plentiful.

    KARDS is a great entry into the digital card game space that does just enough to make it worth trying for everyone, rather than just WWII buffs. While it doesn't revolutionize the genre, KARDS never really stumbles much either, and the amount of polish for a game that's only one base set and an expansion into its life cycle is remarkable. There's a lot of promise in KARDS that suggests it could get even better, too, so if it begins to feel a bit more daring in how it designs its card abilities, there's every chance this is the foundation of a real game-changer in the future.

    Everyone wants to repeat Hearthstone’s success, but most new CCGs stick to fantasy setting, and the rest go for sci-fi. For people who can’t stomach either (or just prefer something more grounded in reality), KARDS will be a real treat. [Issue#245, p.62]

I am a big WWII fan and I think that the game really captures the genre, the frontline also provides a strategic element that makes the game more dynamic and fund. Overall, I think this is a well-designed game in terms of mechanics and I really like the artwork and illustrations in the game. Expand

You get extra cards by playing the game and winning matches, even against AI opponents. You don't have to spend a single penny if you don't want to.

    If you're a fan of World War II history, simple to understand mechanics, but deep variety in gameplay - give KARDS a try.

    You can build a deck using your own initiative, test it out and just see what happens. The best part of the game is the presentation and artwork, which is truly excellent and authentic.

    The "Frontline" mechanic is a contested space between the players that introduces another layer of strategy. Very good!

The game takes a little while to really get the hang of, but once you do and learn to play around the frontline and cost of operating units the game becomes the most enjoyable card game I have played.

    Very addictive and fun. Loving ww2 stuff is a bonus. Some benefits include easy to learn, but hars to master and provides beautifully drawn cards.

The gameplay itself is full of choices and feels extremely skill intensive . Despite this , the fact that some cards are so ridiculously overpowered compared to theirs is ridiculous and it can feel like the game starts in an unfair place . Expand
