What is Card Coder?

This single-player, turn-based card battler centers on cybernetically enhanced warriors from across the galaxy. You combine triggers, conditions, targeting rules, and effects to determine their abilities, then position cards to influence enemy targeting while protecting your Commander. Between fights, you collect rewards, shop, and manage your ability components.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy engineering chain reactions across the battlefield
  • +you like unlocking more building options between runs
  • +you want constructed and random draft gauntlets

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer real-time action to turn-based combat
  • −you want relaxed battles rather than challenging runs
