Hello, I recently discovered that I like card games and I wanted to first find some games where I don't need to spend money. So I thought using a standard deck would be a good option. Are there any games that can be played with this deck or are there simply none?

I'm a university student planning to make an image batch processing system for my Final Year Project(FYP). I believe one of the group that can benefit most from said system is the deck building community. So I'm here to ask for your opinion on said software requirement to fulfill this project.

The software should work (at least in my head) by deciding where certain element should be (e.g. name, background, stats.). You can then upload images/assign name to a list where the system would follow down the list and render the images one by one.

I know this is not the only system that does this right now, that's why planning to find something that i could do better instead compare to the existing system.

You might be wondering what happened here and I'm pretty sure it is a combination of arrow V and lightning.

Doing some community research. How would you feel about a deck builder video game where you get to design the card art yourself? Would you find this fun?

Hi. I'm looking to get into Ascension but I don't know if the 10th edition will work with expansions or what. Would it be better off with third edition? Just need a little guidance. Thanks friends.

I have built a procedurally generated Slay the Spire inspired game. Now that I have a playable game engine, I'm trying to build classes and cards but I am struggling (programming the game is my specialty, apparently designing cards is not). If anyone is talented at theory crafting or coming up with cards / game mechanics, I would love to have you join the team. Here is a link to the current prototype: https://elthran.itch.io/edge-of-ascension

I will gladly send you a playable demo (windows only currently) and the database of all of our current mechanics and cards.

Hello all!

I am looking for a deck building game (either virtual or physical) with any or all of these aspects:

• Quick turns like “Here to Slay”.
• A leader character and acquired characters to build a party like “Here to Slay”.
• Involves dice rolling to resolve effects (ideally a d20).
• A miniature/figure that moves across the board to explore/shop and then initiate the deck building battles.
• Can be 2 or more players.

I’m excited to hear any recommendations!

Hi everyone! I'm thrilled to share a game that I'm currently developing!

Here's the link to the Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2924080/The_Mnemograph/

Game Context

A new evening newspaper is hitting the streets, and it's yours. But The Mnemograph Chronicle isn't just another one of the dozens of flimsy 'rags' that people devour every day. This is a paper written by a machine, the Mnemograph. For a genius inventor, what could be easier than creating a system capable of extracting information from the carefully harvested brains of unclaimed bodies at the municipal morgue? All that remained was to build an automated printing factory, so the power of steam could spread across the city, delivering news that chronicles its own downfall. The rise of the press attracts entrepreneurs of varying scruples every day, so... why not you? Your printing factory will need to be upgraded to achieve production speeds that can compete with the best-established publishers and reduce costs; regular repairs will also be necessary. The Mnemograph itself will need to be calibrated before each production, and its accuracy can be improved. You'll also need to manage stocks of paper, ink, copper, and coal. But most importantly, you'll need to carve out a place for yourself in a hostile world where anything goes. You'll have to get your hands dirty with the city's underworld, exploit its criminal talents, get involved in its schemes, pay for its services, and wade through the muck of corruption under the cover of night.

Features

• Build a Unique Deck by Purchasing Services from the Underworld

At night, you'll need to protect yourself from rival newspaper moguls who will try to sabotage you as you rise to the top. But if you want to own the biggest paper in the city, you'll also have to go on the offensive, enlisting the services of the underworld.

As you progress, you'll encounter new characters. Each one offers different services tailored to a specific style of play. For instance, the crime boss provides basic services like thugs (orange cards), while the politician offers protection services (blue cards).

You get to decide who you want to meet, allowing you to build a unique deck with a personalized play style.

• Calibrate the Mnemograph Before Each Production

To make money, you need to sell newspapers. And to do that, you must calibrate the Mnemograph before each production run. After the brains are analyzed, you'll need to choose the main headline for the paper based on the engraving the Mnemograph has produced. If you make a mistake, you’ll end up publishing a newspaper with incorrect main information!

• Manage Your Supplies, Upgrade Your Printing Factory, and Make Repairs

Carefully manage your supplies by buying and selling goods based on current prices to maximize profits. Upgrade your printing factory to reduce resource consumption and cautiously increase production speeds. Maintain your machines regularly to minimize the risk of breakdowns.

Plans for Release

• Release Date: Q2 2025, in Early Access
• Demo: A demo should be available before the release
• Platform: PC
• Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2924080/The_Mnemograph/

Feel free to share your feedback!

Have a nice day!
