If Rusty has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Rusty has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Rusty has only one fan then that is me. If Rusty has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Rusty, then I am against the world. Cute game and quite happy it is now finally out on steam!! Thanks for this labor of love, dragon appreciators everywhere thank you for it.

I want to be completely up front: I don't really like this game. Not simply this version of it. I just don't like Flamecraft. I bought the physical version ages ago and played several times and I just don't find it particularly interesting. I WANT to, but I just can't get into it. And I hate that because it's a beautiful world with amazing artwork and vibe. That said, if you LIKE this title in the form of the …

So far I have played the tutorial and 1 game. The tutorial is good and breaks up the info into chapters in case you get tired of learning. I like the narrator. I played with 2 other people. It took us a few turns to get the hang of it, each reminding each other the rules we all just soaked in. I have some beef with the UI. Sometimes it doesn't make sense to me. I wouldn't say it's intuitive. There is a zoomed out …

Very enjoyable game. I am a huge fan of Monster Couch games, I have countless hours in Wingspan & I spend some good time in the Guilts & Cats of Calico game as well. I believe I will spend many hours getting lost in this cozy little game. I also really love dragons & this game is visually stunning as well as being fun. All the dragon designs are so cute, I love the gameplay & overall this is a 10/10 game for me, …

I pledged to the kickstarter back in the day, so imagine my shock hearing there is now a Video game version. It's a beautyfully animated game, still fun as ever as the tabletop version, and now my friends over the pond don't have an excuse anymore to not play this with me! But seriously, it can't be overstated how gorgeous this game is, it's simple enough for even young kids to get into, and it's deep enough for the …

Players who liked Flamecraft talk about beautiful artwork and cute dragon designs; those who didn't talk about uI is not intuitive and lacks a middle zoom. Which matters more to you?

positive · AI labelView post →I went on a date with my partner to a board game restaurant yesterday, and on top of being wonderful to spend time with them, I realized I’m actually capable of enjoying more involved board games ;o; More specifically: I’m apparently obsessed with Flamecraft Duals. I already ordered our own set xD

positive · AI labelView post →Flamecraft Duels is a fun and snappy reimagined version of Flamecraft for two players. It definitely had a good flow with the first play and the ending was VERY close. I'm interested to see how the fancy dragons and fountain add new strategy/difficulty to a charming new spin on a great game.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It’s very unfortunate that the digital release of Flamecraft, a very wholesome and beautiful board game about using dragons to support retail ventures, came out one day after one of the most high fidelity horny dragon games ever made “You seen the new dragon game?”could get very different answers
neutral · AI labelView post →My daughter still considers Flamecraft Duals her favorite game, so borrowed the original game to show her. A step up for her in moving parts to keep track of, but she's old enough now to appreciate the cute and punny names, adding her own touches to the world.

positive · AI labelView post →Playing Flamecraft. It's adorable and there's an interesting twist on the resource collection.. but I don't much care for the game. It's a similar weight and cuteness as Everdell, so I get the appeal
neutral · AI labelView post →Another wonderful dragon game has released, Drag N' Wash We still haven't gotten FlameCraft or Dragon Shelter yet which will be out in the next two weeks!! It's funny, I appear to make exceptions for dragons when it comes to NSFW art. They don't have to be fat for me to find them attractive.
