How to play

The Grim Reaper explains most of the rules in game, but here is some clarification of the various phases and mechanics:

- Draw Cards > You and the Grim Reaper draws cards up to 5 at the start of every round

- Play Cards > Cards can be put to the battlefield if you can pay for them. The price is indicated on the card. You and the Grim Reaper will take turns playing cards as long as you want to and can afford it.

- Battle > When both players have played their cards, battle will take place. In the battle, the strength and health of all cards are combined and compared to the other players strength and health. The players will take damage equal to the amount of damage not stopped by enemy health.

- Deal damage to cards > In addition to damaging the other player, your army will also damage the other army. The total strength of all your cards will be equally split between enemy forces, those that can not defend against the damage will be discarded

- Gambit Card > The Grim Reaper also holds a gambit card that can be played on their turn without cost. The gambit card is a special card that alters the rules of the game when activated. At the start of every turn, the coin is flipped. The coin will decide if the rule change on the card will activate or not. Red side, means the card is activated and the rules change. Green side means no alteration of the rules this turn.
