I think this has the potential to be extended into a full-fledged game with multiple encounters and a story.

It even feels like it is well balanced. Did you already had a 'Hearthstone-Prototype' or was this completely from scratch?

It was really fun if maybe too easy. Also I didnt quite understand what the card that let you discover a victory condition did. The visuals felt quite polished too and looked nice.

There are so few cards simply because I run of time (and steam).\r\r@MaximumIllusion Cheers :)\r\r@Junber More or less scripted version of Hearthstone is exactly what I had in mind when I set out to do this, so I guess I did it :)\r\r@OttoOtteist I had some quite nasty bugs that took a lot of my time.
