Pro Original Mechanics
Equipment, spells, and traps are all played by expending cards, which can also be spent on favorable dice rolls in combat. The King, at the center of the board, simultaneously loses health and becomes stronger with corruption each turn. The win conditions depend on either killing the king, curing the king with spirit stones, becoming more corrupt than the king, or having the most prestige from quests and combat when he dies.
Cons
Con Pay to win
While you get plenty of "gems" (the special currency) to spend, it's obvious that those who put real money into xp and gold boosts will have a very large advantage over the non paying customers.
Con Games can be too short
The King has a limited amount of health and loses 1 HP every two turns, putting a hard limit on game length and limiting the amount you can achieve in a single game.
