User Reviews for Card Thief

I really enjoyed this game

From the music and sound effects, to the art of the cards. This game is a good way to spend time. I like how you actually have to think of your moves each time you click along your path because everything changes at each point. I think sometimes some of the things aren’t explained very well, like with the hideout and how to actually do the contracts, I get confused a bit. Aside from that the game is quite fun. I’d recommend it, 9/10!

Awesome Game

Very fun to play. It appeals to the ever growing subset of people with short attention spans. Too short now to enjoy the games of my youth. I guess you could also chalk it up to the fact that I have a lot less free time than I used to. But even when I do have the time, I find myself unwilling to invest more than a few hours at a time to any one game.To that end, there's no shortage of quick one-off games for me to play, but most are severely lacking in quality and depth. I may not devote the same amount of time to games as I used to, but I still want to be entertained. Card Thief does just that. It's difficult enough to be just the right amount of frustrating which, paradoxically enough, is a quality that keeps me coming back for more.As fun and engaging as this game is, it still leaves a bit to be desired in terms of content. There isn't much of a story behind the character and his motivation is a mystery. The hideout was welcome addition, adding three new challenges to shake up the core gameplay, which does indeed become repetitive towards the end game.Requiring stolen goods from the base game with a time limit to play the hideout challenges does offer some motivation to play through the old castles. Unfortunately, instead of adding new skill cards with new abilities, the only reward offered for playing the new challenges is more stolen goods. This is the reason why I haven't really found myself all that interested in the new content.

Almost Perfect, Nearly Worth It

This game has some really cool concepts, and the gameplay itself is really fun, but it can get a little repetitive. Though I think the art and animation is spectacular (love the style), I think the game needs al little bit more. My suggestion is that you make it to where you can team up or go against your friends. You could make the arena twice as big, and the goal when you’re working together is the same basic game where you have to escape with the chest, but there is two chests, and if one of you gets caught, you both do. When you are competing with your friend it should be where you are still trying to make it out without being caught, but the player with the most gems/ gold/ coins (I don’t know if they have an official name or not) and there is only one chest, which gives you bonus points. Thank you for your time, I hope you take these suggestions to mind, or maybe even just read this at all (it took 10 minutes).Sincerely, a grateful player, StormCrow

Way more fun than expected

I didn’t think I would like Card Thief but I was pleasantly surprised. Card Thief was an addictive came with beautiful graphics and captivating music. It’s one of those games that gets in your head and you still hear the music even after you put the phone down. Eventually the game got repetitive and there were no more challenges. If you’re OK with spending $2.99 for a few weeks of addictive entertainment, this game is definitely for you.

Amazing game can't put it down!

Beautiful design style and unique game play! I haven't loved a mobile game like this in a long time. The tutorial is not the easiest to follow and game does have a learning curve but once you get the basics of movement down you will love it! Every time you beat a round is super rewarding, not like grinding out the 569th level of Candy Crush. The balance between strategy and luck keeps it interesting and the lack of freemium crap is utterly refreshing in the current landscape.

There’s Only One Way To Play

Other reviews have gone on about the lack of variety, every game feeling identical to the last, the rather dull way the app shakes money out of you, and the absolutely abysmal tutorial, but no one has mentioned the strategy and skilled needed to play the game. The game is designed for you to use one strategy and only one strategy — extinguish torches and save every sneak card until the end. That’s how you get the most points. The problem? This strategy is entirely based on luck. You either wait for the deck to generate the cards you need to win, or you don’t and the game ends. As far as design goes, this is a terrible practice.

Finally

I have been waiting for a game like this for a while. I am really into rogue-like games and also card games. This game perfectly combines the two to make a great game with infinite possibilities and creative solutions. But what really elevates this game is the great art and animations. The art style really helps set the mood and the subtle animations are really well done. My only complaint is that the tutorial could be better, but once you start playing it will make sense.

Card Thief

My oh my! Card Thief is EXCELLENT, but what was even better was Arnold Rauers very quick response to the issue of the game crashing on my iPad 2. He suggested turning on the power save option in the Card Thief options, so the card animations wouldn't bog the game down to a crawl. That did the trick! Anybody having crashing issues should do this right away. Now, about the game. I've played Card Crawl every day since I downloaded it, and I can say Card Thief is just as good, if not better. Great graphics, sound, control, and gameplay. It's definitely harder than Card Thief, but that's ok with me. There's a little more luck involved when playing Card Thief, but not enough to throw the fun and playability of the game off. All in all a very good purchase for $2.99. Thanks Arnold Rauers and Tiny Touch Tales for this wonderful game of thievery. Keep up the good work!

An overall great game.

I found this game awhile back, maybe 1 year ago. Ever sense then, I’ve been hooked on it. The game takes something that I personally find relatively uninteresting (Solitare), and makes in an enjoyable experience. With it’s great art style, that’s choice of colors fits the mood of the game perfectly; the equipment cards makes the game even more interesting, by using its effects, it let’s you devise strategies that you couldn’t do otherwise without them. And I Love the hideout mechanic, it allows for a unique way to play the game so it wont get stale. And while the music Isn't a large feature, it’s solid non the less. I could nitpick at some minor things like the lack of unique enemies, and how all the areas look the same(excluding the chests). But I’m not gonna. Because all in all, if you love stealth, this is a must get; it’s free so why not?

Great but one little bug

This game is really freaking good. Very well made and when you play a round perfectly it’s very satisfying. However, there is an annoying little bug with the contracts game mode. In this game mode you get to play as a different character with their own art, quirk to make it more challenging, and sound effect. However, at least for me, the art for the other characters just doesn’t show up. It just shows a brick wall. Great game but would love to see this bug fixed sometime soon.
