- The game crashes reliably every 20-30 minutes. This will result in losing progress of at least the last blind played, but in one instances we lost an entire run. Nothing was saved at all.
- Encountered one instance where the reward for skipping the blind didn’t match the description. The next store was supposed to have a guaranteed “negative” joker. However, the store didn’t offer a joker at all and it turned out the reward is phrased wrong. The reward applies to the next joker that appears. After a reroll a joker appeared in the selection and was then correctly turned into the promised “negative” version. The incorrect wording also exists for other types of cards (foil, holographic, etc.) and works the same way.
- The game plays mostly fine, but the constant crashing and the lost progress make it basically unplayable in longer sessions.
Note: After patching, clearing the system cache and deleting the save file it took the game longer to crash than the previous 20-30 minute intervalls. The issue is still present, though.
