About This Game

Cardness is a card survival game where you stack cards to gather, craft and build a camp, then defend it when night falls.

For example, give a Villager an Axe and it goes to chop the nearest Tree. Put the Wood on a Workbench and you get Planks.

The Night

At dusk, a horn tells you where the void will strike. Plant Stakes, post a Villager in the Watchtower, and beat the wave to the last creature to earn its reward. Each night, the wave grows.

Combat

Villagers fight on their own. When they pin down an armored Void Brute, its weak point opens: slash it right then for triple damage.
