Dear Primateria Community Members,

Our playtest phase has officially begun! This is your chance to be among the first to experience the exciting changes we've been working on, based on the valuable feedback you provided.

Here's the issues this Playtest tries to address

  • Bosses had way more cards than the player and difficulty at beginning of runs was too steep due to small number of cards in deck;

  • Rewards could not be skipped, making decks too big, especially on late game, and shops were too far in-between;

  • First quest boss was too difficult for new players;

  • A "complete run" (doing all quests) was too long of a challenge;

  • Keeping the same deck throughout all quests made the game too easy for experienced players;

  • Difficulty of quests and runs was not clear, as it wasn't explicitly displayed;

  • Battle in Waves node was too punishing for most of the decks, especially due to the lack of a battle phase.

How to Join the Playtest:

Joining the playtest is easy! Just activate the "playtest" beta in your Steam client. You can do so by right-clicking Primateria on your Steam library, and navigating to "Properties..." then "Betas". There, just select the "playtest" branch from the dropdown list:
