This is a Mario Bros. CCG. It is currently under construction. Little is concrete at this point. All cards are speculative until the rules are firmly nailed down.

Special Rules

Card Types

In addition to Things and Actions, the following card types exist:

Hero

Heroes are a subtype of Thing. Heroes have HP and DEF, written as HP/DEF in their corner value. There can only be at most one copy of each Hero in play at once. For example, if Player A already has Mario out, neither Player A nor Player B can play another Mario card. However, if, somehow, multiple copies of a Hero are in play, nothing special happens.

Heroes come into play with a number of Health Counters equal to their HP.

Enemy

Enemies are a subtype of Thing. Enemies have HP and DEF, written as HP/DEF in their corner value.

Enemies come into play with a number of Health Counters equal to their HP.

Characters

Both Heroes and Enemies are considered Characters. There are no cards of type Character. It is only used as an abbreviation for 'either Hero or Enemy.'

Equipment

Equipment is a subtype of Thing. Equipment can only be played onto Characters, unless it says otherwise. The Character a piece of Equipment is played on to is refered to as its User.

Location

Locations are a subtype of Thing. Each Player can only have one Location in play at one time. If they play another, the old one is destroyed.

Response

Responses are a subtype of Action. Each Response specifies the conditions required for it to be played. Responses can be played out of turn and do not count against the number of Actions that a Player can play in one round.

HP and DEF

When an Enemy or a Hero is dealt damage, they gain a number of Damage Counters equal to the damage dealt minus their DEF (minimum 0). If the number of Damage Counters exceeds the card's HP, that card is destroyed.

Resources

FP

Each player begins the game with a certain number of FP. Many cards require an expenditure of FP to be used. A few cards can restore FP.

Further Details pending

Audience

Audience is a shared resource. Several cards can raise the Audience and many cards require a certain level of Audience to be used. A few cards can lower Audience as well.

Further Details pending

Other Rules

Card Abilities

Any text written as a bold verb followed by a colon can be read as, 'As an action, you can use this ability.' Also, any ability that gives a damage value is an attack and must target a Character. For example, 'Jump: Deal target 1 damage' can be read as 'You may take an action (called Jump) to deal target Character 1 damage.' If the verb is followed by a number in parenthesis, this amount of FP must be spent to use the ability.

Card Attributes

Certain cards have special attributes. These are listed in italics at the beginning of the card text.

Flying: A Flying Character cannot be dealt damage by an attack, unless it specifically says that it affects Flying. Flying Characters can attack normally.

Spiked: When a Spiked Character is dealt damage, the Character that damaged it (if one exists) is dealt the same amount of damage. For example, if a Character with 2 DEF attacks a Spiked Character with 1 DEF with 3 damage, the Spiked Character would gain 2 (3-1) Damage Counters and the other Character would gain 1 (3-2) Damage Counter.

Paralyzed: A Paralyzed Character is considered to have blank card text except for its list of attributes. Any player may take an action to flip a coin. If its heads, remove Paralyzed from all Characters.

Notes

This deck is similar to the Mario Bros. deck, but it will be bigger and more detailed.

Scope

The deck can contain any card based on any of the Mario RPG or platformer games. It can also contain other cards based on Mario's interactions with the characters and locations elsewhere on Mushroom Planet.

Rule Ideas

This is an area for ideas about how the game should work.

• I think the Locations should still be in the new deck, but their role may change
• The rules for the other deck should be kept simple, but that doesn't have to apply to this one
• Maybe for enemies we could have specific states e.g. 'Flying' 'Spiked' etc. and that would effect other things.
