Just started reading this series recently. Ancient Enemy Book 1 -already read FINISHED. Now on Book 2 Darkwind. Great series. I can hardly put it down. There’s some language (no taking Lord’s name in vain, yet) but not every page, just every now and again. But this series so far is a great, scary, and very interesting series.

Ancient Enemy review - Risk and reward done right

One of the more interesting parts of running a site like this, especially for 8+ years, is that you end up exposed to all kinds of genres and genre conventions that you wouldn't ordinarily seek out, some of which inevitably make enough of an impact to alter your gaming preferences. Point-and-click adventures, twin-stick shooters, side-scrolling beat-em-ups, and other extraordinarily hyphenated genres have gone from being "games for other people" to some of my best/favorite genres. Card games are the most recent addition to this list—for years, I've avoided games that revolve around cards because I felt that only so many interesting things could be accomplished with them, but I was wrong and some of the most enjoyable games I've played in 2020 have been card games. Ancient Enemy is the latest deeply enjoyable card game I've played, blending a vaguely solitaire-inspired counting mechanic with Slay the Spire-esque attack and defense cards, and all while minimizing any potential RNG problems. As always, my full screenshot gallery (895 .pngs at 3840x2160) is available to backers. I got pretty obsessive about obtaining 3 stars on every level. Read the full article

Impressions: Ancient Enemy is even better than I expected

Ancient Enemy is a turn-based card game with additional mechanics that are vaguely reminiscent of solitaire, but that description fails to capture just how engrossing it is. Imagine a card game that balances risk and reward just about perfectly, demanding short bursts of resource management as you try to hoard consumables that'll be useful against your current chapter's boss. Games like this always benefit from being easy to learn and difficult to master, and this describes Ancient Enemy perfectly. Actually, though, its challenge on the normal difficulty is more like "easy to learn, also easy to get so overwhelmed that you forget how numbers work"; a large part of the gameplay here consists of charging attacks and providing them with bonuses by clicking on cards one number higher or lower than your current card (provided such a card exists in the play field), and while that may sound incredibly easy, your stupid meat brain has a way of complicating things. I've had a great time thus far. Read the full article
