Rules

  • Gameplay is in turns. Each player takes his or her turn, and then the next player plays.
  • At the start of the game, it is decided whether HSSSSS ,FOFL or Genesoft should play first, second and third.
  • When constructing a deck, a player may use any of the neutral (grey or yellow) cards. He or she may also pick one of the colours (red, black or blue) to play, and may not use cards with the other two colours. If a player does not pick a colour, he or she is neutral or unaligned, and may not use any of the red, black or blue cards.
  • The first corner value indicates the attack value. The second corner value indicates the health value/hit points (HP). If the health value reaches 0, the card is removed from play into the discard pile.
  • At the start of the game, you MUST play FOFL, HSSSSS or Genesoft depending on which team you are playing as.
  • At the start of your turn, draw a card.
  • Any card can attack another card, providing the attacking card has an attack value of 1 or more. Each card can attack once per turn.
  • You may play 1 card of each type (1 Website, 1 Software, 1 Person, 1 Action etc) per turn.
  • One action ability may be used per turn unless otherwise stated. If you use an action ability, you may not play any Actions in the same turn.
  • You may not play any card marked as "Unique" if the same card is already in play.

Deck Construction

The following rules must be observed in deck construction:

  • A deck must have at least forty cards, but can have as many above that as you wish.
  • When constructing a deck, a player may use any of the neutral (grey or yellow) cards. He or she may also pick one of the colours (red, black or blue) to play, and may not use cards with the other two colours. If a player does not pick a colour, he or she is neutral or unaligned, and may not use any of the red, black or blue cards.
  • A deck must contain at least one Website, and one of the Websites is to be marked the home website. For an aligned player, this is preset to FOFL for Red, HSSSSS for Black and Genesoft for Blue. For an unaligned player, this home website may be any Unique Website that is designated as neutral.
  • A deck may not contain more than one copy of any card marked as "Unique".
  • Before the game, you must show exactly forty cards from your deck to your opponent, and your opponent must do likewise. These forty cards may be chosen by you.

Victory Conditions

You lose by any of these conditions:

  • Your home website (FOFL, HSSSSS, Genesoft) is destroyed.
  • You run out of cards in your draw pile.
  • The size of your discard pile is greater than half of your draw pile or forty cards, whichever is greater.

If you eliminate both opponents in this way, you win!

Notes

  • An unaligned player playing Conversion immediately converts any card. He or she may use Conversion to target any red, black or blue card. If an unaligned player uses Conversion to target a neutral card, the player instead gains control over the card.
  • When a card returns to your hand from play, it returns to full health.
  • The terms coaligned, controlled and owned are often used interchangeably. However, there are stricter definitions:
    • A coaligned card means that its colour is the same as yours. This may be due to a card such as Conversion.
    • A controlled card is one which is currently on your side.
    • An owned card is one which you started the game with.
