The classical abstract game in card form.


Special rules

Actions do not go in the deck. They're played depending on your gesture queue.

All players play simultaneously. The turn sequence goes:

  1. All players draw a card;
  2. All players play up to one card per hand;
  3. Players reveal their plays and spells resolve;
  4. End-of-turn effects resolve;
  5. All players discard to five cards.

You have two 'hands'. You play Things on either of those Hands, forming a queue. When the last Things of the queue form a certain sequence, you've launched a spell.

Each wizard has 15 HP. If they end the turn with 0 HP or less, they lose the game.
