The last of my @alteredtcg.bsky.social starter deck articles for @cardgamer.com and its finally Lyra's turn! This one was pretty tough to find a reasonable upgrade path with what was given in the starter deck, so it needs more rares than my other upgrade recommendations

Thought a long time about what I felt about The Bookwalker as a game and while its ideas and story are strong, the actual gameplay feels lacking. It’s strange because of how vastly different each world is but it ends up feeling slightly hollow and repetitive sadly. #adventuregames #pointandclick

Played through the @kathyrain2.bsky.social demo during Nextfest, extremely impressed by the leaps and bounds from KR1, both in pixel art, and what little puzzles were shown (typing answers in was 🔥). Hoping that Whispers of the Machine might also get a sequel too! #adventuregames #pointandclick

Finished through The Roottrees are Dead. Really enjoyable experience, fully voice-acted, and combined elements of two games I really liked (Hypnospace Outlaw and Obra Dinn) while still doing its own thing. I just wished Mania wasn't so Periodical reliant at times, though I get why. #pointandclick

Finished A New Beginning by Daedalic Ent. I questioned the anti-nuclear energy stance the story took in the beginning and really disliked the "hold click to pull up interaction wheel" UI but felt the multiple perspectives worked very well for the gameplay + story. #pointandclick #adventuregames

Went 0-3 at the #alteredtcg locals with a Rin Festival brew right before Set 2 drops. Made up for it with the unique I pulled in the pity pack.

Got to play some more #alteredtcg while on holiday in Hong Kong. I don’t really like sealed for this game but opening an unplayable unique is always funny. 2-1.

Came 3rd with an untested brew of Akesha Control at the weekly #alteredtcg local. Freed up space for another rare and will definitely add an Ordis Carrier if not 2. Deck felt really fun but impossibly bad into Sigismar.
