a really fun single player card game. it is pretty distinct from Gwent proper, despite ostensibly being Gwent itself - most of the matches are not your usual matches, but rather puzzle scenarios where Gwent cards are your tools for solving those puzzles. the writing and choices are what you'd expect from a CDPR game - no "correct" or "moral" options, each with their own consequences. sometimes you make those choices based solely on its effect on your gameplay and situation, which makes it a bit more "game-y" than the Witcher games, but it's still fun and could be totally roleplayed if that was what you were into. it is a hefty game as well, i played almost 40hrs for my playthrough. it's a must-play for Witcher fans and for fans of single player card games as well!
