From Gambrinous, the award-winning indie studio behind Guild of Dungeoneering. This is an RPG where you battle using an epic collectible card game. Cardpocalypse takes you back to the '90s, when computers still used floppy disks and people relied on magazines for video game cheat codes. Explore Dasdale Elementary School with the goal of creating killer decks to defeat the Aliens. Along the way to victory, you'll trade, earn, bet, change rules, and permanently alter cards.
● Become a Champion: Build your deck around the ultra-rare Champion Cards you acquire. Each Champion has unique abilities to customize your deck. The first player to reduce their opponent's Champion Card's health to zero wins the match.
● Go Super: When their health is reduced by half, Champion Cards evolve into their Super forms, dealing more attack damage and gaining new energy.
● Change the Game: Kids sometimes play with house rules—who knows what the Aliens might change? Throughout the game, you'll choose new rules and conditions, rename your favorite cards, and upgrade them with stickers. Use the Super Alien Energy Magazine to create entirely new cards. But beware, these decisions are permanent.
● Get Aggressive: Adventure throughout the school to crack the strange cases occurring at Dasdale Elementary. Complete missions to earn collectible cards, stickers, and candy, which you can trade with classmates. Be careful, there's no backup!
● Incomplete Collection: Ultimately, your deck and rules will be unique to you. Stickers are rare, choices matter, and sometimes you must make tough decisions to obtain the best cards.
● The 1990s: Through a cool gameplay format based on choices and interactive descriptions, Cardpocalypse offers the experience of being a kid in the '90s. Yoho!
