CardScrawl

CardScrawl is a deckbuilding game set in a dark gothic fantasy world. You build a deck for one of 30 champions, each with an exclusive ultimate ability, and fight through the Tower’s dark halls using tactical decisions, resource management and creatures that move automatically across the board.

Champions and decks

Each champion calls for a different approach, and some are harder to use than others. You assemble a mix of Creatures, Enchantments and Spoils to suit your champion and strategy. The available creatures range from Orcs, Goblins and Imps to Dragons, Jabberwocks and Mind Flayers.

Tactical combat

You spend Mana to summon Creatures onto the game board. Each turn, both players’ Creatures automatically move toward the opponent’s end of the board. You can use them to attack or defend, but a creature that reaches the far end attacks the opponent’s Health Points directly.

A second deck supplies Enchantment spell cards that enhance your Creatures’ combat abilities. Their effects can be Horizontal, Vertical, Random, Chain or Board-Wide, so you choose plays by assessing the current board.

Spoils and upgrades

After each match, you choose a Spoil to permanently upgrade your champion. You can select Spoils to complement the champion’s ultimate ability and your current deck strategy.
