About Tropical Resort Tycoon:
At this point I have owned the game for about a week, and expect to keep sleeping erratically and ignoring life as we know it. Its like this…. No!!!! I cant go to bed yet, just one more turn at the game, in order to survive a little longer and beat my last record…. Relaxing kind of Zen peacefulness, entertaining kind of Panic as you combine cards and check the results to see if you’ve chosen wisely how to spend your time in-game. Recommended. Hope there will be more games like this in the future because the different ones like this are the ones that I like that are different and it is easy to figure out everything but will take some time to master everything but it has that challenge that is a good kind of challenge. I loved Winterspring’s earlier game “Card Quest”. The games interesting combination of mechanics and styles from deck builders, CRPG’s, and dungeon crawlers has had me coming back to the game at least once a year. “Card Survival: Tropical Island” similarly combines the hallmark mechanics from survival and crafting games with the collectable progression of a deck builder. I’m liking this one so far. Would recommend I haven’t gotten very far but first impressions: this game is a lot of fun, but not easy at all. Be prepared to die a lot from making various mistakes or even just having bad luck. Graphics and sound are minimal but work with the game. The feeling of picking and dropping cards on other cards to build or harvest resources is quite satisfying. Would like to be able to “zoom out” and see more cards at once though.
