How to play:

Each player takes turns moving their disciples attempting to gain control of all of the planets. When a player controls all of the opponent's planets the game ends. The player with the most planets wins the game.

Drawing cards from your deck and playing them allows you to change the game and alter the movement of your disciples. Create a strategy around a custom deck and test it against your friends!

How is this different from other games?

Rarity: The goal of Planets Unbound was to make the cards useful through their own merit rather than artificial rarity. I believe that this will favor ease of access for new players and will allow for better gameplay and metas to develop. Instead of traditional rarity the game will include "alter" rarity. Some cards will have alternate artwork and frames. No cards will have an initially lower chance of being found.

Deck Limits In Planets Unbound your deck is limited to one copy of each card. This keeps the price of assembling your perfect deck cheaper and allows the game to prioritize mechanics while also making it easier to balance the game.

Energy Any card can be played without relying on drawing another card. You have much more freedom to design your decks as they are not limited by color or type. The balance in your deck can be completely personalized to your playstyle while still allowing you to play your favorite cards from your collection.
