Here’s a fun task.

Try finding the System Requirments for this game ANYWHERE (including their site) on the Internets…

Man, any chance this’ll come to XBLA or elsewhere? I’m definitely intrigued.

Just wanted to point this out. “During your turn, you can take three actions, each can be used to move
one card/stack, steal a card from an opponent, launch an attack, or use
an ability. My favorite aspect of [b]Runescape[/b]: Overture is that on every
single turn, you’ll wish you had more action points. There is inevitably
something else you’d like to accomplish on a turn, so you’re always
making difficult choices. Do you use an ability? Steal a card? Finish
building a hand?”

You accidentally put Runescape instead of Runespell. An oversight I’m sure, but just wanted to point that out so it can get corrected :). Great write up though, very positive.

Thanks for the real positive preview. You have played the game with great care.

On the part of the replication of the effects I think you are right. This was clearly a budget decision.The Boss monsters you will run into the game later will have different abilities, but the effects they use can be somewhat similar, although combined with different animations, backgrounds and values we still think this will add suspense.

Hello LamaGT,

Hope you want to try out the public demo that will be available upon release. We think that the tutorial is quite easy to understand. The part of Solitaire we use is the layout of the cards, the part of Poker we make is using the Pokerhands like pairs, three of a kind.
