Hey, card sharks!

If you watched the MIX Next showcase a few weeks ago, you would have seen the trailer that the next free major update, Card Game Island, will be available on December 8th! If you missed the trailer, you can view it here!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2CRCtKyJJc

Two big changes coming with the update! First, Card Game Island allows you to actually try your hand at Warlock in an endgame, single player card battler. Second, King of Games mode enables the most punishing version of Kardboard Kings’ difficulty yet!! Let’s get into some details, shall we?

The fabled home of the best Warlock players in the world, Card Game Island is where the best of the best duke it out in some of Warlock’s most important duels. To get there, you can join by buying an airplane ticket at the shop on Mondays. When you buy your ticket and end the day, you’ll be taken to Card Game Island, instead of the next day in the store.

Once at Card Game Island, you’ll have the opportunity to play the game of Warlock. Starting with a random deck, you’ll be able to add or remove cards after each match at set points on the map! As you move through the map, you’ll have the choice to visit shops or start battles and you’ll have a little bit of information about the state of the battle when you arrive. Every battle includes a passive effect strengthening certain types of cards.


Each battle both you and your opponent start by drawing five cards. Warlock is set up in two basic phases, the main phase where you can play your cards, and the battle phase where you attack your opponents creatures.

On your turn, you’ll first have the option to play your cards in the creature zone or support zone. The cards you play in the creature zone are face up and the main cards to attack your opponent. The cards in the support zone are played face down and support the creatures in the creature zone. Also in this phase, if you have warlock tokens, you can activate your legendary cards to trigger powerful effects on the battlefield. One such effect, for instance, eliminates all the creature cards on the field.

Once you are finished playing your cards, you will start the combat phase. The combat phase is where you can attack your opponents cards! Each creature can attack once. When attacking, select which card you’d like to attack with and their target. There are two different conditions you want to look at when attacking a card, the power level of both cards and the type of both cards. If your card has a higher power level then your opponents, then you gain an advantage as the creatures fight each other.

There are three types of abilities in Warlock: Beauty, Brain, and Brawn. Beauty beats brain, brains beats brawn and brawn beats beauty. If your ability type beats your opponent’s then you gain an advantage over your opponent’s creature. If your creature attacking has the advantage over your opponent’s creature then you destroy your opponent’s card. Draws in the battle keeps both creatures on the field. Destroying a creature adds its power total to your score, displayed at the top of the screen. The first to maximize their score wins.

During the combat phase is when your support cards come into play! If your creature that is battling shares the same color in the support zone you can play that support card to increase your creature’s strength or change the type of ability that creature is during the battle. Make sure that when you place down support cards that the color matches one of your creatures on the field as if they don’t share colors with a creature on the field they can’t support your cards.


After your combat phase you will draw cards based on how many creatures of different colors are in your creature zone plus one card. So if you end the turn with three different colored creatures on the field you draw four cards.

The match continues until one of the players reaches the score limit. You gain points by destroying your opponent’s creature cards. Their strength after applying bonuses from support and field bonuses is how many points you gain towards your score.

King of Games is the hard mode of Kardboard Games! You can turn it on and off on the save selection screen and turn them on and off any time during your playthrough on the save selection screen.


King of Games adds these extra rules to your game, looking to really challenge the best shopkeepers out there

• Weekly Taxes - Every Monday you pay taxes which is calculated based on your sales
  
• Reputation drains over time
  
• Tougher shop goals
  
• More extreme piece changes to trends and ban lists

Also after each day you will be graded on how well you did based on reputation gained, customers served, requests filled, and money spent on cards and decorations.

Card Game Island will be available December 8th and I’m excited to get this update in your hands!
