Card-en-Ciel review

System: Switch
Release date: October 24, 2024
Developer: Inti Creates
Publisher: Inti Creates


If there’s one thing I don’t think we get enough of these days, it’s video game crossovers and character cameos. There’s something delightful in watching characters from different series interact with one another in “what if” scenarios. Despite being a deckbuilder, which is a far cry from the 2D action games they are better known for, Card-en-Ciel feels like a love letter to Inti Creates’ catalog of releases up to this point, and it delivers a surprisingly deep combat system that somehow manages to stay fresh despite the repetition and roguelike trappings that occasionally throw off the pacing.

Card-en-Ciel demo

Inti Creates just announced that it’s readying a demo for Card-en-Ciel. This will be available on September 5, 2024.

By downloading the demo, players can experience the deck-building, story, battles, and meta progression of the early dungeons just as they appear in the full version. The trial includes two main dungeons as well as a tutorial dungeon. Players can freely roam around dungeons and battle the enemies they choose. Over 100 cards can be found in the demo, though there’ll be more than 300 in the full release.
