Description
Meteorfall: Journeys is a deck-building roguelike. You'll choose your class from one of four unique adventurers, and then set out with a deck consisting of some basic attack cards. During the course of your adventure, you'll be presented with the opportunity to add powerful new cards to your deck. No adventure would be complete without slaying a few monsters that get in your way. In battle, you'll draw cards from your ability deck. Each time you draw a card, you'll be able to swipe right to play the card, or swipe left to skip a turn and regain some stamina. Between battles, you'll venture through a variety of locations, represented by an encounter deck. You'll encounter blacksmiths that can upgrade your cards, temples that can help you optimize your deck, and mysterious characters that will make you all sorts of bargains.
History
The development of Meteorfall started in mid 2017. Eric Farraro under the name 'Slothwerks' created the original prototype. As Eric scoured the internet to find the right artist to bring the world to life, he came across Evgeny Viitman's portfolio on Behance. Evgeny's unique style was a great fit, and the duo began bringing the world of Meteorfall to life. Craig Barnes joined the team later, bringing some much needed sound effect design to the game. The game finally launched in January 2018 on iOS and Android, and received a lot of positive reviews from fans and critics alike.

For just a few bucks[...] it’s a clever enough tweak to your expectations that it will almost certainly make you smile a few times between cursing out your deaths.

Meteorfall is good. Dare I say, super-duper good. So good, in fact, that I’m sticking it in the running for Game of the Year and it’s not even the end of January yet
David Neumann, Stately Play -
Meteorfall is a supremely welcome addition to the mobile card genre. It's brilliantly well put together, super smart, and is deep enough that you can easily lose hours to it.
Harry Slater, Pocket Gamer -
Meteorfall is a card game, pure and simple, but still a darn good one that is well worth checking out.
