Become a hero! Choose your class, perform mighty actions, and recruit powerful champions to your cause as you grow in power. Awarded Origins Fan Favorite Best Card Game. From the makers of the award-winning Star Realms® Deckbuilding Game, Hero Realms® combines the fun of deckbuilding games with the interactivity of trading card game-style combat. As you play, use Gold to add new actions and champions to your deck. When played, those actions and champions generate powerful effects, give you additional gold, and attack your opponent and their champions. If you reduce your opponent's health to zero, you win! [Non-Collectible Deck Building Game] Hero Realms does not require you to collect new cards. You start every game with a basic deck, and will acquire cards from the shared center row to build up your deck and defeat your opponent. Victory rewards skill, and not your collection of rare cards! [Level Up Your Heroes] Create a hero from one of several classes (free players start with the Fighter and Wizard available). Level them up with new skills, abilities and equipment, and take them to battle in thrilling Online PVP. Hero Realms uses fair match making, only allowing matches between equal levelled heroes. However, if you feel daring, you can choose to engage in combat against higher levelled opponents for additional XP and bragging rights. [Cooperative Online Play] Hero Realms also features online co-operative play. Battle against challenging AI bosses with another human player as a partner. Free players have access to the Pirate Lord mission, with other co-op missions available with the Base Set purchase. [Single Player Campaign] For offline play, take on the Welcome to Thandar campaign. Fight your way through scripted, story-based chapters against varied AI opponents. [Free Version] Free players will get to experience: - Addictive Deckbuilding Game with Player VS Player Combat. - Play VS the AI - Play with the Fighter and Wizard character classes - Level-up your characters up to Level 3 - Play the first 3 missions in the Welcome to Thandar campaign - Play the Pirate Lord co-op mission Purchasing the Base Set will unlock the full Hero Realms experience: - Unlocks hard AI difficulty level - Unlocks the Cleric, Ranger, and Thief character classes - Level-up your characters to Level 12 - Unlocks the entire Welcome to Thandar campaign. - Unlocks the Necromancers, Inquisition, and Orc Riot co-op missions.

About

WEED WAR

Features
Read full description

WEED WAR is a two-player collectible card duel. Build a deck, face a real opponent, and win by strategy rather than luck. BUILD YOUR DECK A legal deck is 42 cards in fixed quotas: 25 strains, 7 seed-bank specials, 4 certificates, 3 golds and 3 heroes. Every card is drawn from a catalog of 53, each with its own printed values and its own place in the plan. Which 42 you bring is the first decision of the match. PLAY THE ROUND Both players start on 909 tolerance. Each turn you commit one strain and up to two specials, and at the end of the round the two sides are compared — family bonuses, pairings and hero effects all resolve in a fixed order. Ten turns each, and the higher tolerance wins. WIN INSTANTLY Land exactly 420 or exactly 710 and the match ends on the spot. Both numbers are reachable and both are hard. Knowing when to reach for one is the difference between a good player and a lucky one. DAY AND NIGHT Strains belong to a side of the table. Some belong to both. The board changes what your cards are worth, so the deck that beats one opponent will not beat the next. TOURNAMENTS AND RANKING Queue for a match against a real opponent, climb the rating, and enter tournaments for cards you cannot get any other way. SIX LANGUAGES English, Polish, Czech, German, Spanish and French. NO ADVERTS, NO PURCHASES There is nothing to buy. No adverts, no in-app purchases, no loot boxes, and we do not sell your data. WEED WAR is a fictional card game about collecting and competition. It is rated 17+ and is intended for adults.
