HTML - Completed - TF Card Battle [v1.24] [Apollo Seven]

A game with some potential, but which suffers from serious GUI shortcomings and poor game balance choices. The porn may as well not be there, as by the time you click through the card games, you are probably not in the mood for the little one page erotic short story that follows. There are also GIFs, but the game is designed such that you basically can't see them - they appear in a little box in the corner of the screen or (if you click a different option in the settings) in the background, obscured by the cards and control buttons.

As for the game balance problems, the author kind of went nuts with cards that let you draw more cards. Basically, if a card gives you an extra draw, it's a "freebie," which is to say that there is no disadvantage to being dealt that card, even if it does nothing positive for you. You almost always want to pick these, and especially prioritize multiple draw cards. Beyond that, you want to avoid taking "terminal" - meaning not-extra-draw - cards unless they have a very large effect (including cards that create potions). You also need to pick a few cards that give you adequate "mana" - brains, hearts, and submits - and defense, but really, most of your cards should be extra draw cards, while the others should be carefully limited. Once you figure this out, you're unlikely to lose, but the game becomes an endless hell of clicking because you are drawing and drawing and drawing exhausting most or all of your deck every turn.

Boss battles are almost impossible to lose.

Also, if you are the witch, there are crazy exponential growth opportunities - I say opportunties, but they are really hard to avoid if you just pick logical cards - which lead to all your mana and defense rapidly growing into the billions and then causing looping errors.

Basically, it's amusing for a little while, but it needs a lot of work. Specifically, game balance needs to be totally overhauled, and some space needs to be made on the screen for the porn.

Absolutely loads of potential here, great job Apollo, this is an awesome game that must've taken a while to fully flesh out and balance.

This is a card game that is unlike any I've ever played (and I would like to think I've played a few). The game's mechanics are actually less about 'playing' the cards and more about which cards you 'buy' from a specific 'buy pile' every round - in my opinion.

There is some thought that is required when you're playing your cards at times for example you'd want to play your "All cards you play this turn get x2 points" before you drop your "10 point" card, but I've actually played this game a decent amount and I think you really have to think about which cards you're buying more than what you're playing.

I love the small gifs after you play cards, I wish there was one for every card you play, but I understand that's probably a good amount of work. I love the different 'specializations' you can have with picking specific cards that have special modifiers. Personally, I enjoy the idea of you progressively transforming into a submissive woman as you lose your 'health' in the game.

All-in-all this game is the best adult card game I've ever played and will probably play for a while. It's extremely creative, surprisingly well-balanced, kinky, fun, and challenging. I look forward to more gifs and cards, and I salute Apollo for being so astonishingly creative and doing such a good job with balancing the decks out.

TL;DR - The best adult card game I've ever played. If you want an adult card game that's not 'strip poker' sims or something, this is your game.

This is a scary good game, it makes me think that porn companies could make a fucking mint if they ever created a trading card game based on pornstars. This game is challenging yet fun, and has a pretty decent amount of gifs (fappable material). Good game to give a shot even if your not into card games. I do wish that there could be more progression and unlocks and some balance changes to the modifications but damn I really just want more content.

So this is a wild one.

I'm very not into the whole transformation/sissy porn stuff but I am a very curious pervert and so I tried this game out because of the rating and lads? The game has a game in it!

So the heart of this game is a deckbuilding mechanic where you buy one of three different currencies (brains, lust and submission) in order to transform your opponent through... being a huge slut? I'm kind of unclear how horny this game actually is but the game is great!

As you transform the cards you have access to buy change in both effect and in the dominant currency required. I don't think I've played a deck building game before where you have to plan how your economy transforms over the course of the match.

It's a brilliant realization of the premise of... I guess magically being turned into a woman? Unclear how you come to this but damn if this isn't a genius bit of design.

Rant over!

nice game, hard to win in all the variations, still figuring how to gain expert in the brain cards, but really even if is a tf its whort to play even if you dont win.
advice: if you belive your tf is simple... like the cowgirl or maid, they have a very seriuos balance corrections, and the magical girl ist not as hard as seems to be, just dont let her change to her evil form

Pros:
+ Awesome deck builder gameplay (for a porn game)
+ Wide variety of girls, kinks, and playstyles
+ High replayability
+ No censorship


Meh:
+- Compressed quality images and gifs
+- Not really a game to get off to
+- Story mode has only 7 battles, but there is endless, sandbox, and challange mode
+- Sissification theme is very core. Most kinks are not opt-out.
+- Seriously high potential for this game to improve with added features and polish. Keep an eye on this game


Bad:
- Shitty tutorial
- Some advanced gameplay features are hard to figure out
- Really missing a tooltips feature to figure out what each card does (without having to go back 3 pages to the glossary)
- Wall-of-text storytelling (not very engaging)
- Absolutely no sound at all

Really liking this game at the moment. Good gameplay and really good replayability, with a ton of variety of strategies and depth. Looking forward to more content. Extra image packs would be a cool addition. Overall great game.

Great game that will give you hours of entertainment.

It's very much like Slay the Spire but with a porn twist, you make the decks per round (one normal round of building, then you use those built cards in a boss battle) that centre around a theme, that there are many of. Everything from bimbo to magical girl, starting with 3, there are like 9 of them to unlock, along with different card sets and modifiers to unlock alongside that.

Each deck theme has unique mechanics, like growing your breasts for bigger results and locking/unlocking a chastity belt for different affects, each deck feels different, it's quite amazing how each concept feels fresh.

Alongside all this, and the traditional card building, there are many different 'styles' of play, each match containing 3 phases (knowlege, sex and submission) and lots of little sub categories that give you bonuses for using X amount of cards of the same sub section (like oral addiction, romance, lesdom, bondage and hypnosis to name a few) there are many things going into each game, so even playing the same 'class' will allow you to experience a unique match each time.

While personally I couldn't actively masterbate while playing, it's not to say the game isn't also very sexy with gifs and descriptions for all cards other than the default, basic ones. It just distracts you from that with having to think about what you're doing. I'm sure many could get off while playing, though. What you need is for sure there.

The story/concept itself is pretty interesting too, I personally thought the magical girl and witch ones were very amusing, though each follows the same concept with a twist based on the class you are throughout+at the end once victorious or defeated. It also has an accension system to make each game up to rank 9 so far, have more and more challenge, while I did lose a few games, it's not too hard to get to the top of that system and experience all content.

On that note, even after doing all content, I still found myself playing just for the card game itself and no further reward. This should be a good indication to how fun this game is.

I can't wait to see the final product, even with the game as it is now, I am very satisfied and consider it on the level of a completed game, the fact that more is coming is nothing but awesome news. I'll be supporting the patreon and coming back to this without a doubt.

One of those rare games you play for the gameplay with a porn-y twist. It's creative and unique because of the way your deck purchase options change as you transform.
Most of the game is in the battles, so you have to enjoy that gameplay setup as there's only minor rewards for winning rounds. The interface could be a little better in relaying everything that's happening, or it could use tooltips in some places.

I didn't like the render art but there's an alternate hentai art pack available, which is awesome.

If you like card game as for example, Magic the gathering, hearthstone, pokemon...
you will like this game as much as i do. I consider it better than minesweeper/solitaire to pass time.

It's still being flesh out, but already it look promising. Replay-ability is there to unlock new transformation, and new cards upgrade. A story-mode that i wish would do better/longer.

It's lacking music, but hey! choose your own music/playlist in the background and enjoy what it has to offer

This game is pretty great. Not so much for fappage as the gameplay. The card game is just fun. There is enough different content to make it very replayable. The only negative, for me, is the different classes don't seem very balanced. A couple of them I find really hard to win with. Others I have no issues breezing through on the toughest difficulty.

v.71 review

Wow.

I remember trying out a VERY early version of this game and I didn't even write a review as it was a buggy incomprehensible mess. But when it was re-uploaded to version .71 and I saw the other reviews I thought I'd give it a shot. Boy am I glad I did.

So first off, it's not a perfect game, lets get that out of the way. There's still a few bugs and the initial learning curve to playing is a little steep, but once you get over that, it's smooth sailing. Other than that, I can't think of anything negative to say about the game other than I wish there was more content! But that's the curse of games in development, isn't it?

Now, onto what makes this game excellent:

First of all, I love CCG and deck builder games. Slay the spire and those types of games have totally dominated my life for the last few years, and going all the way back to the 90s, Magic The Gathering. So this is an actual somewhat unique take on the whole deck builder genre. Especially since of the three rounds you fight through, you basically reset your deck back to the start. This lets you get a bit of variation and what might be a killer build in round one might not work in round two. On the other hand, you might use the easier rounds to fine tune your strategy and build from there in later harder rounds.

There are different transformations, effectively "classes" that you can play as, Bimbo, Maid, Hucow, and a WHOLE lot of locked ones that I don't want to spoil for you. The three transformations, or classes, essentially play the same... but yet also don't. They each have a different mechanic that makes their play style different enough to be interesting. Interesting enough that I spent hours playing, unlocking, and trying out each of the various classes, as I was eager to see how they'd play.

As fap material, this game is serviceable, and if you want that, you can focus on that. But I was actually drawn in by the game itself. Enjoying it more than some games I've bought on steam lately.

I do have one bit of constructive criticism however. Essentially the draw mechanic is far too powerful. Almost every build can 'win' by just stacking draw cards that have other effects. Especially if you get a class that is able to remove basic cards from the deck, you can run through your whole deck each turn, stacking up TF, and resources, and just ez-moding the way through things.

But over all I can't believe how many hours I spent playing this game and this one is a must watch for future updates. Especially because of the nature of the way the game is laid out, it seems obvious that the dev is going to add in future 'classes' or transforms, as well as body mods, new card sets, etc in the future.

Even if TF isn't your bag, give this one a look.


--edit 10/2/2019--
Yeah that thing I said about draw being overpowered? It is in early games, but as you start getting deeper into ascension it can screw you over. So I take back my comment that the draw mechanic is overpowered.
Side note, I can't stop playing this game. Can I give it 6 stars?

Well thought out original gameplay. Meaningful updates. Seems to have a plan for what they want to accomplish. Also seems mindful of feature creep. One of the best uses of twine I've seen and on a completely different level from most of the submissions from tf site. Has well documented mod support for replacing images.

I dig the corruption and TF themes of this game and the game mechanics behind the card battle system is strong. I can also see replay value in it for the 'ascension' points too. Still, not my go-to choice for fap material. The models are not my cup of tea. The story itself makes sense, but it isn't very captivating. As a diversion though, the game is pretty good.

Good mechanics of gameplay(cards, traits, class and boss) feel like Heroes reams and Dominion.
A bit short on history but logical in card game, so not a bad point.
Waiting the next update.

Thanks you for this game.

On the weak side I feel that some class are more difficult to win with( for me the maid is kind of hard)

The mechanics of this are solid and the game is really fun. That being said, I think it'd reach a much wider audience if they went the Trap Quest way of allowing the characters to start as repressed conservative women instead of men. It mechanically changes little, even the dialog mostly still works. It would necessitate a few new models for the first half of the transformations though.

I know I'd dig it a lot more with that in, but even without, it's pretty great.

TF Card Battle is a really unique adult game. Very rarely do you get adult games with porn as the mechanic but TF Card Battle really tries to make a game where the corruption themes are acted out by the player themselves. It's not perfect (as of v35) but you can tell that the game is progressing rapidly from balance changes to new fetish content.

The topic of MtF transformation isn't for everyone, but the core card game mechanics are addicting.

Fun deck building game with unique mechanics. Would have liked the videos to be bigger and the story longer. Looking forward to the addition of new cards and more content. It was a little confusing to learn the rules.

Surprisngly well made card game. Story content is short but the core gameplay is solid and fun. I would also add more cards and tweak some card costs and effects, but i understand that this is a WIP so i wont hold that against it. Looking forward to seeing the full version come out. Would really suck if this gets abandoned.

A surprisingly great card game with solid mechanics and several different strategies you can use. I hope to see the story mode expand and try out new types, I had a lot of fun playing as a maid I still need to try the other 2 versions and I am looking forward to animal girl. Keep up the good work!!!
