Heroes of Magic and Cards is a new pixel art fantasy deckbuilder title out now on Steam. It has been developed by First Day Entertainment, which said, “Heroes of Magic and Cards puts you and your poker deck up against the mighty forces of evil in this nifty deckbuilder”. 

Players play their hand from encounter to encounter and collect relics and enchantments, which change the poker they thought they knew, synergizing with characters’ innate class abilities to reuse or even copy cards. Players will carefully build up their hands towards powerful poker combinations to destroy their enemies.

By biding their time in battle, playing dead-weight cards to do light damage as they build up their hand for truly devastating combos. When the moment is right, unleash the two-of-a-kind, three-of-a-kind, four-of-a-kind, straight, or even flush that they’ve been sitting on to activate your most powerful abilities and leave your opponent as nothing but ashes. Card-enchantments fill this process with twists and turns, adding extra draw-power, or changing the values or suits of cards to build up to the perfect hand.

Key features of Heroes of Magic and Cards include:

Poker Roguelike Power. Build your perfect deck as you traverse the world, ensuring that by the time you fight the next boss, every draw is a guaranteed powerhouse! Crush your opponents with straights and pairs!

Customize Your Plan of Attack! Every run offers a different assortment of enchantments and relics through a series of random encounters. Make the most of what you find, putting together your strategy one shift at a time. Will you focus on healing? Changing your card values to maximize your combos? Will you just aim for raw damage? Every find has its uses!

Choose Your Class! Each class has its own unique abilities to push the flow of combat even further! Powers like Chain Lightning, Hell Fire, and Shield Burst completely change the flow of combat and set you up for devastating finishers on the most powerful bosses!
