Rising Revolution

Rising Revolution

By Matthew Trent

General Overview:

You will play as the Russian revolutionaries in this strategic card game and attempt to dethrone the Russian Czar, Nicholas II.  You will do this by getting the Czar's health to zero before your own. Each card in-game that you'll in your battle against the Czar is a different historic event or situation that contributed to the Czar's downfall. May the odds be ever in your favor, good luck!

Basic game run through:

Upon opening the menu you will select a difficulty from the top left (1 is historic) and then press 'Play' to begin the game.  Once you're in the game there is a shuffle button (card on the bottom left) which you'll press to deal the cards to yourself. You then play your three cards (dragging them onto the earth to play them) and then press the end turn button (very bottom left) to end your turn and let the Czar attack you back. Then repeat until one of you is dead (zero health left). You may also use the power ups to aid you during your battle (they are the four light blue buttons on the upper left). The power ups  can only be played once a game and provide, if played correctly, an immense advantage. Along the way to switch songs, figure out abilities and more press 'RMB' to switch between the game and info tabs.
