About This Game

Cardistry is a free-to-play idle clicker and card-collecting game with hand-drawn art by real artists. Click to earn soft currency, let the game run in the background for time-based drops, and build a collection of cards you can own and trade on Steam. No AI slop - just human-made drawings that grow into a collection over time.

We start with AI “brainrot” animals - the loud, cursed meme creatures you’ve seen everywhere – redrawn by real people instead of pasted from a model. Cardistry began as a small challenge: prove that a few artists, given time and freedom, can make more interesting brainrot art than any model spamming the same prompt all day.

Core mechanics:

• Time-based drops (Common every 3h, Rare every 12h + daily catch-up Rare)

• Click your equipped card to earn Inspiration Points (IP); higher rarity card= more IP

• Random “Sketch Fragment” events that can burst into big one-off IP rewards

• Spend IP on instant-drop boosters (Common/Rare/double-card) with daily/weekly limits

• Recycle duplicates into Support Credits (SC) and buy cards/boosters in the store

• All cards are Steam inventory items; trade them and chase monthly 24h “Black Market Friday” Legendary/Golden cards

Cardistry is a small, loud “NO” to AI slop: a comfy idle game about silly animals, shiny cards and knowing every piece in your inventory was drawn by a human.
