I've been a longtime fan of the tabletop card game and have been curious how the game would translate to digital. The answer is... squeamishly great. Squirmish is a game that's a little hideous and extremely bizarre in all the best ways, and seeing the world's characters animated is a warped delight. As far as the gameplay side, the game provides a surprisingly intense little battling game with a lot of strategy and just a little luck to keep things interesting. The game's cast of 70 monsters is packed with a diverse selection of abilities and attack powers, many of them changing the tide of battle in unique and interesting ways. Additionally, you'll find various clusters of fighters that are part of different "groups" that become stronger when multiple are on the board, whether controlled by you, your opponent, or both. Card game enthusiasts (especially anyone who enjoys the Pokemon TCG) will have a lot to chew on as they find their favorite strategies and monsters.

The drawbacks: While a labor of love, this definitely isn't a AAA title and some of the presentation can feel a little homemade, but that's part of its charm. It can also take a little time to learn how to operate each ability correctly, which you'll want to do since it's easy to do some things by accident and there's no takebacksies. Finally with 10 or so computer opponents (though the AI is quite good), there is not a lot of meat to the campaign as the focus is on multiplayer, but you'll definitely want to find an opponent manually online for that such as through Discord as the game doesn't have a big playerbase for random matches at the moment.

Despite all this, this is one of the funnest card games I've played in recent memory--easy to learn for young and old but with a lot of substance hidden inside for anyone who wants to dig into it--and it's well worth the reasonable price tag. Further updates and expansions are an exciting prospect too as the game is ripe for more fighters and mechanics. Bring on the beasties!
