Picked up Vampire Crawlers and I'm really enjoying it so far. I believe I've figured out my opinion on Deck Builders in general: My enjoyment of a deck builder is inversely proportional to how much text is on the average card.

Very sad to hear that Sandy Duncan has passed. Without Sandy's considerable investment, leadership, and team building, there would be no GameMaker today. It would have faded into memory long ago, and many wonderful indies might never have realized their dreams. RIP.
