If you enjoy the one-up, one-down solitaire mechanic, worth checking out. Graphics aren't quite as nice and the story isn't as good as Shadowhand, which is the other solitaire RPG made by Grey Alien. The computer opponents don't use the cards in this game, so you don't have to worry about leaving a combo in the tableau (and sometimes it's better to leave something there for your next turn).

Ancient Enemy is so close to being a great game, but suffers from strangulation. You can only play levels once. You can't access most of the customization elements until very late in the game.
