Love the game, but is it too luck based?

So my first run I lost on the fourth blind. My second run I lost on the second to last blind. It was just the jokers I got, and I probably would have won but I gambled on trading the Ramen joker for an undiscovered card. Just seems a long way to go with only one run's worth of practice.

IMO, if you're just looking to win, at least with how the demos are, it's pretty simple and hard to get RNG'd into a loss. However, if you're trying to do some crazy combo by utilizing edge cards, or heavily modifying your deck, you're very reliant on getting specific cards out of a huge pool. Many games I've got some good Joker combo going that I don't typically use, and all I need are few good tarot cards to make it work reliably, then no shop for 4 antes offers any packs.

Remember that the full game is twice as long with final boss blind being up to hundred thousand points to score, relying on just those two isn't enough.

I am not talking about the full game, I am talking about the demo. The full game is not "twice as long", since we stop at ante 6 and the full game stops at 16. Also, the scoring required is increasing exponentially, so I would not think the demo is even a tenth of the way.

turned most of my cards into 7s while boosting the rewards .

Why, and how?

Full version has 8 antes, anything beyond that point is endless mode (and scales much more aggressively).

The "you can only play one kind of hand" can really get you and it destroys the whole idea of the game i think. Should be removed entirely. Focussing on just one kind of hand often works but doesn't make a lot of fun.

Everyone feels this about one boss. The Mouth (what you mentioned), or the Bell (One card selected, the current final boss) or cards drawn in later hands are face down or start face down, etc.

Each and every boss is made to snipe a playstyle. The Mouth got yours.
