First off, really fun game! Took me a few hours and a couple attempts, but I beat it. At least, I think I did, because otherwise I was softlocked:
I had no cards left in the deck, and stumbled upon the Black Joker. When you defeat The Nemesis, you shuffle it back into the deck and place the top card of the deck in its place to immediately explore. This top card is now the Black Joker, so I’m locked in an endless cycle of fighting. I just said I walk to another room, but rules as written I have just lost the game. This applies to any card that you remove and replace as well.
Just wanted to hear your thoughts on this. Again, really solid game.
