Looked it over for a few minutes but couldn't glean any clues about how to actually play it! You should at least put some instructions on this page so people know the rules and what to do.

For some reason the game would not load, using chrome btw. I will come back later and will refrain from voting for now.

Looks promising, but I've got the same problem as "graebor"... I simply couldn't figure it out, how to play the game :-(
Probably you should add some tutorial or documentation (and audio^^).

Anyway, keep on working on it - probably it will become the "Heartstone" alternative for web browsers! ;-)

No idea how to play. Cards look nice though. Can you add some instructions?

Didn't load for me in chrome for some reason either but I'll try it on another computer tomorrow.

I have posted directions above in the description.

It seems neat, but you should possibly make the game more streight-forward?

Cute cards with a good sense of humor and accurate mythological references... I really liked the look of it! Despite your instructions, though, I still really couldn't tell what to do. I seem to have ended up in some kind of stalemate after the very first turn, and couldn't manage to buy the special upgrade cards at all. Thematically, it was all there... I was very eager to play, but some sort of idea of how to play a good hand would be helpful.

Hmm, the link appears to be dead over here :(

I'll check back later, this looks interesting

yoni 2014-08-29 13:46

Does not load :(

What happened with the link?
I don't know what this game is about, but I like the idea of play cards. I will return later.

Hi there. Website appears to be down. Not rated

sarahfrisk 2014-08-29 14:47

Should be back up.

I got some questions...
How much does a card cost, how do you buy it (clicking on it?), when do you get it after you bought it (next turn, is it added to your deck)?
When are the bids compared (As soon as one player has bid both a elemental and a magic point?)? Who wins a bid (sum of magic+elemetal)? Why does loki have thors cards and vice versa?
Do i have to use all cards in my turn? etc...

This game needs way more info. Please give a structured overview of the possible moves of a turn and the computer logic behind it. For example: [[[

REGIONS:

1111.2.4
1111.3.5
........
67.88888

1: Shop
2: Lokis bid for the current world
3: Thors bid for the current world
4: The current world
5: Discarded cards
6: Current Player
7: Deck
8: Your Hand

TURN
Drag a card of [your hand] and
1) drop it on [the current world] to raise your [bid for the current world] by the cards resources, or
2) discard it.
* If you raise your bid with a bought card, you wont be able to use such a card again, until the next world.
* For every discarded card you can buy a card of the top left box by clicking it. This card will be on your hand on the next turn.

GAME
Until 5 worlds have been won, repeat:
1) Lokis turn
2) Thors turn
3) Both bid values are calculated by adding the magic + elemental bid, higher bid wins the world card.

]]]
I guess there are some errors in this example descriptions, because i did not understand it fully...

bugs:
* The worlds claimed counter is not reset on new game. (7/5 worlds)
* Some cards miss the black+blue/red card background (only the picture and the text is shown)

Nice art + concept! :)

I love the gfx, but i couldn't figure out how to play :( looks promising though, you should try to add an non-hotseat version.
