Building up the units and then the cost becoming their health reminds me of how the minion work in Vampire the Eternal Struggle.
Oh yeah, it sort of is!
This is a great video. I don't think I'll be playing it but it's great to see how you can make an economy for a card game work so differently. (Keyforge also has the draw up to hand size at end of turn rule, and it almost doesn't have an economy.)
Thanks!
This is really informative. I've played lots of MtG and Netrunner but am excited to back Wormwood and give it a shot! Can't wait for the crowdfunding campaign!
Thanks!
@@damonsteaDOA. You got 5 games to fight. Sorcery, Flesh & Blood, Myrtle, 6 arms, Alpha clash, Lorecona, Shadowverse, .
@@TempoLOOKING Not looking to replace any of those. This is a non-collectible game that is optimized for 3-4 players as well as kitchen table play, not 2 player tournaments. But you do you!
Do you have some kind of hand traps that trigger when revealed by opponent, like Snare of Jinteki faction from Netrunner?
Not thus far, but I've thought about it. Perhaps in future expansions!
I am in love with this!
Thank you!
I am seeing some similarities between the systems different in Wormwood from MTG and those which are already present in smaller CCGs. Would you be willing to do a callout of any other CCGs that you were inspired by and how Wormwood is also going to differ from those?
Hey! Netrunner and Magic are the ones I am most intimately familiar with and the only ones I could knowledgably comment on, but I was definitely influenced by a variety of card games- Star Wars, Legend of the Five Rings, Vampire: The Masquerade (Jyhad), Pokemon, WARS, etc. Curious to know which games you see parallels with!
the secret-keeping and information aspect is really really cool. really cool. feels like it could be super political, looking at someone's card then lying to another player about it, stuff like that
It can get very political! Once a group has played a few times you see a group culture emerge. Thanks for taking a look!
Are there any plans for a digital spinoff with the ability to play as a single player? Edited for a typo.
I would love to make an app if I can get the money to program it! Hopefully in the future
I'm liking what I'm hearing here.
Thanks for checking it out!
Man, what a cool game.
Thank you!
Will the Tokens be made out of plastic or cardboard?
The base game will have cardboard tokens, but we will have acrylic tokens as an addon for those who want it! We have been limited in our material choices since they need to print with a different color on each side!
You need a new microphone setup. At max volume I can barely hear you.
His mic setup is fine, what he need is simple compressor/limiter on audio channel 😁
Thanks for the feedback, and sorry about that. We are working on getting a new audio interface
@@damonsteaNo need to apologize : I could clearly follow and hear you and this was very informative :-)
is that AI art?
We have worked with over 30 artists on the art- many of the pieces are licensed personal pieces, not commissioned by us. You may see a few AI pieces in this video for cards we haven't completed yet.
