If you like collecting things then this is for you

The Good
I was very pleased that this game was so cheap because I would not have liked to have paid a great deal for it. Don't get me wrong, it works perfectly, the music is good, the artwork is good and I can see from the STEAM reviews that it has its followers - it's just not for me.

The Bad
For me the problem with this game is that I just do not see the point of it. OK so the object is to collect all the pictures, I get that, but when the allocation of cards is random and so many are worth less than the cost of opening the case, there's no way to make a strategy.
In fact, unless I've missed something, the only viable strategy for this game that I can see is to:
- set an auto-clicker to mine the free case overnight,
- empty the inventory for cash the next day,
- then mine another case,
- repeat, repeat, repeat ... until all the cards have been collected.

The Bottom Line
This is a strange game - I've never played anything quite like it. I'm pleased I bought it because it's something different and whenever you try something new there's a chance you will find something that you really enjoy. Not this time.

The game seems well made and the music is good - it reminds me of Hentai Dojo, with which it shares some artwork. According to the current game guide, there are sixty-two cards to collect - however the inventory will hold five hundred and the forums talk of more cards and cases being in the pipeline, so it's probably going to grow. I wish the developer(s) and the game's fans well.

Ultimately though, I don't see any element of skill or any gameplay that will give me pleasure. I'm happy to grind away if I'm making decisions and I'm exercising a degree of control but the accumulation of wealth seems too random here, this is not a game to be beaten it's a game to be endured, and therefore it's not for me.
