Lies of Astaroth for Xbox One review: An RPG card game missing the MMO

I'm not going to lie, card games like Magic: The Gathering are already a rather niche genre of video-games, but there has always been little to contend with.

Until Hearthstone became hugely popular on PC, and MMORPGs began slowly making their way onto the Xbox One, there wasn't anything to challenge Magic. Undoubtedly, there was no way Hearthstone wouldn't be massive, with the World of Warcraft and Magic fans behind it. They're tall boots to fill.

With that in mind, the Lies of Astaroth is a duckling standing in elephant shoes. Hear me out, though.

It's clear that developers iFree Studios put a lot of work into the MMORPG card-battle game that is The Lies of Astaroth. The level of detail for the imagery on each of the cards is truly something to appreciate, particularly if you're a fan of scantily clad anime ladies so blessed with chest you're in danger of having a nosebleed. The cards are colorful and so varied, investigating new ones when you receive them is a must. For a free-to-play game, they have created something that is still enjoyable, but it's not without its flaws.
