The Zone: Stalker Stories | RPG Card Battler | Part 1
As a finished game this really might be an interesting card battler RPG, for now it's still in early access. I like a lot of parts about it, like the aesthetics, the story, the free roam or the battles. But, I also feel like this game needs a lot of work from now on to rise at its potential. The game crashed a lot on me (going back with 'quick start' seemingly fixed a lot of them, I was in a crash frenzy at one point, every time I was about to fight somebody the game crashed), I hated the fact that you can't see enemies in free roam and you randomly stumble across them in the weirdest places and most of the times they are much stronger than you, I find it weird that you can't see enemies at all on free roam, also, the game could've been more explicative in general about free roam and battles. This is not at all a bad game but it still needs some work unfortunately.
From Steam:
"Tactical card battles and narrative RPG exploration in a world of monsters and anomalies. As one of the last remnants of humanity, trapped in the Zone, it's your turn to become a Stalker and walk where others fear to tread.
Cut your way through rabid mutants and supernatural creatures. Collect and use artifacts of mysterious power. Develop your latent abilities and crush your enemies with the force of your mind.
The last remnants of humanity are locked in a desperate battle for survival. Helplessly trapped inside the Zone -- fighting not only against the twisted, hostile environment, but the supernatural fear and confusion that constantly attacks their minds.
You are one of the lucky ones. A 'mutant', cursed with strange telekinetic powers, as well as higher resistance to the Confusion. The kind of person who could thrive out there... If you can stay alive.
Create your perfect deck by mixing and matching hundreds of pieces of equipment. Carefully manage your expedition to maximise your exploration time. Take on side jobs with unique stories and unique rewards. Make friends. Make enemies.
Inspired by games such as Slay the Spire, S.T.A.L.K.E.R and Darkest Dungeon, the Zone blends a new take on deckbuilding with rich narrative -- a full story crafted by industry veterans (Mount & Blade, The Next World).
