Whotfire

This is a simple but yet complex turn-based shedding card game to which players are shared with some number of cards at the start of the game and a card is dropped at the center. This is based on some of the Whot Card game rules but much similar to a 2d fighting game.

About the Game

This is a simple but yet complex turn-based shedding card game to which players are shared with some number of cards at the start of the game and a card is dropped at the center. This is based on some of the Whot Card game rules but much similar to a 2d fighting game.

The first player is chosen at random and will have to play similar shaped card to the center card or play similar number.

Playing any card that doesn't match either the Shape or Number of the Center card will be rejected.

If a player does not have any of the cards that match the above criteria, then the player will have to draw from the deck and the turn to play goes to the opponent.

Whoever first empties the cards in hand wins the game.

Players can string together cards in a combo or use special cards (Card Number: 1,2,5,8,14,20) to either force opponents to pick or extend combos.

Winning at advanced levels will require much more than just dumping cards as strategy, technique will be needed to excel.
