CardBoard seeks to create a genre between tabletop party games and roguelike deckbuilders. Roll your characters unique dice, move around the board and battle whatever awaits you at the end of each round. Gather some friends or play by yourself and see if you've got what it takes to defeat the ruler of each board on the final round.

Most of the cards have their own animation that is unique to it's class. Above are just a few of the cards that Johnathan has with animations tried to them.

Everyone can be the character they want, no healer required. Never get locked out of a character because you weren't fast enough. You can preview the starting deck and see which characters your teammates choose before heading out to a board.

In the rare cases you might want to change your class before clicking that big green Begin button. Remember, just because a character started as a tank, doesn't mean he can't carry pick up some healing cards along the way.

Characters move around the board based off the dice they roll. Each character has different dice which amount to different movement capabilities. One character might be able to roll a single D20, while another might have to roll two D6's to determine movement. The D20 might allow one to travel the board faster and complete a deck sooner. However, their cards will require more investment and upgrades to reach the same power as someone with slower movement.

Even if you don't pass a shop, doesn't mean you won't get something good just for landing on it. It's one of the spaces in CardBoard that grants different rewards when you land on them. Although red and blue spaces always give or take gold, the amount they give'll go up the more turns you're on a board.

Other tiles have rare chances to give special rewards given you've met other criteria around the board... I'll try not to spoil anything but beware the roots.
