Faeria Reviews
Faeria does have issues with its queue times and online gameplay, but it really is a remarkably well thought out game. The sheer amount of thinking that goes into each and every turn makes the game difficult to understand and get into. Most people wouldn’t go through that much effort to learn the game, but those who do will definitely find it a truly enjoyable CCG.
Faeria is a great card battle, with a beautiful visual presentation, lots of content and a well-balanced gameplay system. The expansion system seems too aggressive and the interface may not be so friendly at first, but for fans of the genre, the game offers many of the best solutions for it.

A fun CCG with online issues.
Other than a few slight problems I would recommend this to any card game fans out there, it stays true to everything we love about card games while adding its own unique twist.
The tactical spin to the CCG model in Faeria ends up working fairly well, if being somewhat simplistic.
The gameplay of Faeria is top notch, adding a whole new layer of depth to the Collectible Card Game genre in bringing the map itself in as a critical piece of the strategy.
While I enjoyed playing Faeria, and will continue to enjoy playing it, the laggy gameplay and required internet connection creates enough friction for me to know that I won't be playing for hours on end. It's a fairly decent game, but with its flaws on Nintendo Switch I don't think it's going to be a classic CCG anytime soon.
EXCELLENT - Faeria is a AAA quality merging of the collectible card game space with strategy board games. It features some of the most stunning art I’ve seen in the genre. Accessible and easily learned, but difficult to master gameplay felt nearly perfected, and there’s enough game modes and replayable matches to keep a person playing for ages. The only thing really keeping this from a perfect score in my book was that the game requires constant, good internet to play smoothly, even in solo modes. I wished so much I could have had a seamless experience offline. Still, for fans of Magic Arena, Hearthstone, or other fantasy deck builders, Faeria is a must-have, and definitely won’t break the bank at a $19.99 base price point, with a handful of great DLC for a bit more cash.
Faeria offers excellent value to people who enjoy collectible card games but dislike the feeling that the devs have their hands in your pocket almost from the beginning. It will be interesting to see how the community fleshes out, but I found the combination of tactics and deck management to be a rewarding experience.
Faeria is a thoroughly enjoyable strategic card battler that's consistently fun to play. This multifaceted game feels like one you can play for the next few years and not get weary of it.
Truth be told only recently have I been able to play deck-building games of any kind that I’ve found interesting...
Along with the expected multiplayer modes (ranked and casual battles), Faeria delivers a compulsive, interesting and frankly enormously fun card battle experience. While not the easiest game to explain, it's an impressive teaching tool for itself, but never feels overwrought or tiresome in said education. Of the card games we've enjoyed on Switch, Faeria is easily the highlight of the bunch so far, and it deserves to do well. It's a full-featured package and stands out as an excellent card/board/strategy experience. If you want to play a fantasy card game on Switch, buy this one first.
From its singular mixture of card game and board game mechanics, to its wide variety of game modes and content (including online co-op, a real treat for a game in this genre), to its consumer-friendly progression system that eschews microtransactions, Faeria is attempting to stake out a special place in the pantheon of digital card games, and despite a handful of technical flaws it absolutely succeeds.
Faeria is a great game for Hearthstone players looking for similar gameplay.
While it doesn’t have the brand recognition of other TCGs, Faeria should absolutely occupy your top spot when searching for a TCG to play.
Faeria has always been an intriguing game, with the Fall of Everlife expansion and the move away from free-to-play it has truly become something worth taking note of. The unique mechanics at play here really help it stand apart from the competition. With the addition of brand new cards including an army of yaks, now is the perfect time to jump in.
Despite its imperfect presentation, Faeria is an interesting and appealing digital card game.
Faeria is a delighful card game, with a board management mechanic that reminds of Settlers of Catan. The work of Abrakam represents the real alternative to the already full selection of card videogames on the market. Highly reccomended.

Faeria is an interesting and beautiful game that brings new ideas and solutions to a conservative genre. Several controversial issues can play a cruel joke in longer term. However, with a proper attention from developers this game will easily occupy its niche, securing itself a brilliant future and thousands of hours of fascinating battles for fans of card projects.

Faeria is a very interesting project: this surprising card game is the perfect example of the sentence 'easy to learn, hard to master!'
