I'd say it's definitely a full game. So many hours of fun and tinkering even with the relatively low scroll count so far. And it's just going to get better, still Beta.

I very much recommend trying out Scrolls if you're into deep strategy games.

I'm surprised you think Scrolls is a deep strategy game. I've only sunk no more than 10 hours and I already see everyone with the same decks (3 factions, 3 decks). Not much room for different strategy since there are hardly any cards. Scroll's complexity isn't 'complex' - it's needlessly cumbersome and tiring - having to do consistent mathematics in your head isn't fun (for me anyway).

Hearthstone is way more complex simply due to the 9 (vs 3) classes.

I have played it for around 2 months and still find new things to play, test and learn. The hex grid not only makes the game unique for a TCG, but also enables a lot of tough strategical decisions.

3 factions yes, a fourth on the way. 3 decks? No way! Decks evolve constantly and new ones pop up, some die out - seems very healthy for such a small, young game so far :)

Just my 2 cents and experience.
