Description

Mark of the Muse is a new card game, designed with the idea of community in mind. This system allows for artists to submit their art for a team of game designers to turn their work into a playable card. It’s meant to be fun for collectors, and a recognition opportunity for artists. Cards are of course completely playable as a game, encouraging collectors to seek out and browse artists for new cards, and aid artists by both getting their names out there and being another source of income.

The cards are designed to maximize the original artwork while being easy to understand and see all the necessary stats and abilities. We decided to not use any borders on the edge in order to see as much of the art as possible.

On a turn, players draw a card then play cards to attack their opponent. When a player has defeated 10 cards the player wins.

Certain cards have a life point on them, with only a specific amount being playable each turn. If these cards' HP get reduced to zero that card goes to the Lifeline. Cards on the Lifeline may still be used as resources, fueling other cards' abilities when flipped. When the Lifeline contains 10 cards, that player is out and the remaining player wins the game.
