turn based? The first paragraph in the OP says it's real time, so which is it?

Froim the vid I took it to be turn-based… Seems weird to have a table-top-kinda game with cards that is real-time.

Guess I will have to take a closer look when there is more to see.

Sounds more like a tactics game than a strategy one. Which isn't bad though.

However these very narrow maps they showed could cause a very puzzle like gameplay like it existed in Blackguards. Not something I'd like to see again.

While I like the artstyle and the idea I always think "cards" as visualization of abilities are rather pushing people away in games than draw them towards it.

Very fair pricing on Kickstarter.
