Hello everyone, Thank you for following the updates of Neurodeck! Gostique and Nemrod joined us last month to help with Neurodeck updates and did great work for this new patch. [url=https://steamcommunity.com/games/1253860/announcements/detail/3041590589760012910]Victoria[/url] has also created new great art with a dozen new illustrations. We added around 15 cards, a new preview system, new unique effects and globally new content that add a lot of replayability to the game. Next month will bring new phobias and we hope you’ll enjoy these new features as much as we do!
