This game had potencial. It has great gameplay, fun mechanics, nice pixelart graphic. Unfortunately there are still lots of bugs and the game seems dead. It had no new patches since December 2024. I can't recomand it

Toads of the Bayou is a well-crafted tactical roguelite with a charming universe and some interesting ideas, but it’s very hard to recommend in its current state. The game appears to have been abandoned since December

I just had to buy it because of my username. The game has potential. The cards look decent, the environment looks alright, and the frog theme is very cute. It tries to be something along the lines of Fights in Tight

Stylish little turn-based tactics deckbuilder. Short but challenging, seems unpolished and clunky but worth its price. Lack of the ability to upgrade your cards is irritating as it is making your runs very random. Worth

Had an absolutely wonderful time. The game steadily increases in complexity without ever feeling like too much at once. However, it seems like postgame is broken? Now that I've beaten Samedi, I can't play the corruption

I really want to like this game, but it's a buggy & poorly designed mess. Your allies constantly attack both you and the buildings you are trying to protect. It's impossible to see the grid and what is going on. Damage
