How do I play?
Set Up
Setting up the game is quite easy. First, separate the cards based on type. There are many different types of cards but they are clearly indicated on the front top right corner with a unique symbol which makes them super easy to sort out before play.
There are also event cards and Victory cards that all go into the Victory card pile and are picked up during play. The number of Victory and Event cards are dependent on the number of players. They can also be adjusted if a shorter or longer game is preferred.
The cards are arranged into a market so that they can easily be seen and purchased during play.
Starting Deck
Each player then builds a starting deck from the market of 5 Victory cards, 4 Silver Coin cards and 1 Gold Coin card. They shuffle this deck. All players start with the same deck but the decks will become very different as players obtain more cards from the market to destroy each other!
Starting Fighters
Each player takes 3 level 1 fighters at random from the market these are the fighter that they will lead to glory or humiliation.
Draw 5 cards, Select a Fighter, Attach Armor and Weapons, Flip!
Each player draws a hand of 5 from their deck, selects a Fighter to throw into the arena in either a defensive or offensive stance. Any player may then attach a Weapon or Armor from their hand to their Fighter for some awesome power ups! Then every player flips their Fighter face up, let the bloodshed begin!
Fight!
Each level 4 Fighter has a powerful, one time use, ability to change the tide of the game or snowball you to complete domination!
Buy to Build!
Play Currency cards in your hand such as silver, gold, and dragon coins to purchase a card in the Market to build up your deck. If you have an equal or greater amount of money than the cost of the card(Yellow stat) You may buy it, but choose carefully as you may only buy one card per round. Fighters not doing enough damage? Buy some Weapons! Not enough defense? Get yourself some fancy Armor! Want to cause general havoc and mayhem? Buy some spells and items! (This is my favorite style of play!)
Get ready for another round! DING-DING!
Discard everything you have in your hand, Take the top card of each pile in the market that was not bought besides the Victory and Currency cards and place them at the bottom so that the market has different things to offer each round. Then start over with drawing 5 cards, if you run out of card you shuffle the discard pile and use it as your new deck. This lets you play the cards you had bought earlier in the game!
How do I win so I can hold eternal glory and humiliate my friends and family?
Simple, when the Victory card pile is empty each player adds up the Victory cards that they have in their decks, discard pile, and hand.The person with the most Victory cards win!
Risks and challenges
As with every project there are risks and challenges. However, producing a card game is quite simple as long as you have the ability to do a bulk order. Instead of tying down the campaign with a bunch of silly rewards I am keeping it simple, while allowing those who want to get some pretty exclusive stuff. You pledge to back the project and I pledge to get you fighting your friends as soon as possible... and also playing Pixel Realms!
So simply put, we are keeping it simple, to make sure it is on time and as many people as possible can get an awesome and exciting game. After all, that way every one wins... EXCEPT THOSE YOU CRUSH IN YOUR WAKE!
