Wildfrost takes the core ideas of the very popular card-driven genre and makes enough changes to add freshness to it. It does take some time to unlock all the town buildings and the three tribes that can provide leaders and cards. But once that happens, the game offers a wide range of tactical options and it’s fun to discover how various combinations will perform against the capable bosses. The game’s presentation also stands out, with a good level of detail and a strong connection to the theme. Wildfrost features some tough challenges but also offers a constant sense of progression. Playing a few runs every day is a great way to sharpen tactical thinking.
Wildfrost is a fantastic deck-builder with rogue-like mechanics. What's more, it has a melancholy story, incredible graphics, and stunning audio. On top of this, it is challenging, addictive, and grim. However, the tough action will put some of you off. Yet, I urge you to break through the learning curve as you battle to save humanity from the Wildfrost.

Wildfrost is a delight in both its artistic style and its satisfying and involved moment-to-moment gameplay. The game demands some amount of learning via trial and error and asks you to carefully think through your moves, but once you get a feel for the game there is a lot of like: owing to its roguelike nature, every run is drastically different. Experimentation and creative thinking are rewarded, and playing the game is just overall a joy. If you have the patience to sit down and learn the ins and outs of wildrost, I trust that you'll really enjoy it.

A perfect balance of accessibility and strategic depth, elevated by charming visuals and buckets of personality.
If I’m making it sound like a mess, it’s not. Great care has been taken to make all of these systems work together beautifully, pulling the best elements of each system into a game that is very challenging, yet satisfying to play. Gameplay has a nice sense of momentum that stops you from getting bogged down in drawn-out strategies, but there’s still plenty of room for careful planning and clever tactics.
Wildfrost isn’t going to distract anybody looking for a hardcore high skill play on the genre, but this quest neve presents as that. It’s a joyous and accessible twist on the roguelike deck builder that you definitely want to deal into.
Despite the palpable chill in the air throughout, there's a cosy fire burning at the heart of Wildfrost. Gather round for a tough-but-rewarding deckbuilding adventure.
I would recommend Wildfrost to anyone who enjoys deck-building battle games like it, but it’s probably not a great introduction for newer players to the genre.
Un gran roguelike, es precioso, todas sus animaciones son muy fluidas y los diseños son muy coloridos, además de todos los efectos que lo hacen realmente muy agradable a la vista, por otro lado el gameplay es muy interesante, es uno de esos juegos en los que posees muchas estrategias para usar dandole mucho valor a cada partida, jugué hasta conseguirme todos los logros y es muy recomendable, para mi uno de los mejores roguelike deckbuilder que he probado

Great Deckbuilder, probably the best one i ever played. Very colorful and fun graphics. It's difficult and I'm incompetent.

Fun but frustratingly unfair, Wildfrost is currently my favourite deckbuilder roguelite, swimming in a sea of deckbuilder games that just don't work. While I find the entire idea of deckbuilders to be highly flawed, I think Wildfrost does its best with very little, and manages to be an enjoyable time even if it sometimes ends up feeling like you're just throwing your cards at a brick wall.
