The funny thing is, this isn't even that far from what other TCGs have already done. Look up Shahrazad from Magic the Gathering--its effect literally has you play a second game of MtG with whatever cards are still in your deck.

Cool thing about the way you've implemented the economy is that it makes sense why they didn't play with it in the OG Card Wars episode - it was Finn's first ever time playing so Jake probably didn't want to use an "optional" mechanic to keep things simple for him.
I personally headcannon that Jake just doesn't use it because he doesn't like it, since we see that his style is full-agressive no-brainer (which gets him a lot of loses), while Jake cares a LOT about Finn (best brother fr) he gets kinda heated when its card wars, and he'd would 100% use it to beat Finn with it, no mercy whatsoever, I think he thought it was going to be easy af and just went monkey-mode for fun, no using extra mechanics, so he didn't set it up in the start and mid-way through the game it'd probably be kinda hard, since he was losing BAD
A thought: Instead of behavior cards, each character has a personality which represents what they do in certain circumstances. For example, the "wanderer" personality is like: "Whenever anyone rolls a dice, this card moves in a direction corresponding to the number rolled." This also fits well with the hexagonal cells, there are 6 dice numbers and 6 adjacent cells.
I love that you woke up one day and chose card violence. And you're pumping this content out like crazy too, super impressive and I love every minute of it!
Although they're not quite what you see in movies, holograms do exist, and you can make them at home with the right setup and enough patience ! Using some quantum shenanigans involving light, you can project a 3D image onto a 2D surface, and have it still capture three dimensions. ...would be cool for this game (Card Wars Deluxe pre-order when ?)

Really love things like the economy system you've been building, I play a lot of MTG and I love unorthodox win conditions. My deck is packed full of weird card combinations that lead to instantaneous wins lol In regards to card wars the way to increase the economy's relevance would probably be to build cards that hinge on that gameplay mechanic more than others. Thinking in terms of MTG and some of its unorthodox win combos here are a few examples: -there are special land cards called gates, there is a unique card that makes you win the game when having all the gates. Couple this with lots of cards that let you look thru the deck and you're bound to win -there are special cards that have extreme penalties for yourself, ones like "you take 20 dmg that cannot be avoided" or "you lose the game at the start of your turn". These are meant to be high risk/high reward cards but I like to use the Harmless Offering card to just give them to my opponent to deal with. -there is an indestructible voodoo doll creature that deals dmg to the opponent when it takes dmg, I like to couple it with big spells that deal massive dmg to everything on the board for max effect -there is a combo where you set up two cards, one that gives you hp when the opponent is damaged, and the other that damages an opponent when you heal, all that's left is to gain 1hp or deal 1 dmg to win All this to say that when making new cards you should also think outside the very systems you've been building. Not just for the sake of instant win conditions, but simply to open up that possibility. Having seemingly overpowered cards that either require you to build a whole deck around it or to find other obscure cards to combo them with is part of what makes games like this fun and I think it could work really well with card wars, especially with mechanics like the economy. Imagine cards that turn money into damage, or damage into money, or health in money, and so on and so forth. Or monster cards that let you spend money to buff them. Or buildings you can upgrade with money. Or perhaps it's tied to how the economy is doing? Maybe I build a deck designed to ruin the economy because all of my monters are thieves who get +1/+1 when the economy is low. And you build a businessman deck who gets special defenses when the economy is good!
Really awesome what you are doing here, love to see it. I would like to mention the possible element types that could be added based on what is mentioned by Cardwars media. Jake says there are a total of 16 in the show, but is cut off while mentioning them. The transcript manages to tell a total of 9 elements (Corn, Wheat, Blue, Crystals, Acumen, Torpor, Frozen Lakes, Lizard Holes, and Learning). The videogame has 6 (Corn fields, Blue plains, Nicelands, Sandylands, Useless Swamp, and Rainbow). The card game seems to have 1 extra compared to the videogame, but sounds pretty similar to frozen lakes (Icylands). So the best accumulated list of elements I got so far is... - Acumen ("Judgement.") - Blue - Corn - Crystals - Ice (I seperated Frozen lakes and Icylands into two distinct categories.) - Lake - Learning - Lizard - Nice - Rainbow (Neutral cards I believe) - Sand - Swamp - Torpor (Inactivity/Sluggishness.) - Wheat 14/16, and 2 left for the imagination. It really is up to you though. That was just the best list I could come up with.
You mentioned in your playthrough stream that you're randomizing the decks so someone can't just choose all OP cards. Maybe have a limit on the total health/attack/other of a deck? So you can only have a couple really strong cards, and have to fill out the rest with stuff like wandering bald man
I think you should def automate the card choosing (any suffle and discarding should happen automatically after you choose the cards) ig it would mean one of the cards you choose might only be in your deck later, but it would make deck choosing way faster (which is a good thing if you expect players to choose a deck every game without letting you save decks and choose them for quick games)
Ive been following since the first episode of the series as im a hugeee adventure time fan and also a magic the gathering player. Ive always wanted to play card wars and im super exited to see your progress and try it out!
Not gonna lie, but wow, this alpha came out way sooner than most other board games. You've clearly been working diligently on this for a while, and it shows keep up the great work.
Since there is a disparity in strength between some cards in the future you may consider give then a value when you are making a deck, for example you may spend 50 points to make an deck stronger cards like the tank(i don't remember the full name of the card) may use 5 points to put on a deck and weak ones like the bettle may use only one point in that way the decks will have cards with different strength like the maize walker and the bald man without being unbalanced. I'm sorry if my english is bad not mine first language.
Nah point system in deckbuilding always sucks the fun out of it. Since decks are randomly generated anyway, you just need a rarity system that keeps the incidence of powerful cards down.
I'm not here because i love adventure time or card games. I'm here because i love game design, and i LOVE seeing people approach "difficult" or unusual ideas. What you made is by no means some odds-defying feat, but most other people would look at card wars and say it would be too complicated or cumbersome without even trying to work out some concepts. Even the official version doesn’t try very hard to emulate the game shown in the show. And i think your innovations here are great and that wherever you take this, you've definitely got a mind to make something great out of it. I'm immensely excited to try this. Thank you so much for your present and future contributions to the realm of recreation
I think my least favourite thing about most board games is when my opponent takes ages to play their turn, and this would be even more of an annoyance in a fast paced game like card wars. I think to keep the game quick and more enjoyable you should either reward the players or punish the players based on the time spent before taking action or just adding a timer (like chess). Just a suggestion though let me know what you think!
This is amazing man i have been wanting someone is give a working interpertation of the card wars game for a hot min. This look super promsing! mad props
Having a lot of optional mechanics for the game, like the economy or player behavior randomness, is genius. It makes it so much easier for beginners to really get the groove of the game before getting into the deep end. It allows the game to simultaneously be beginner friendly while also being very complex.
Wow, I remember seeing card wars on the episode and becoming borderline obsessed with it. I remember 9 or 10 year old me at the time playing on cartoon networks website quite frequently. My email and computer knowledge was very limited at the time, but regardless I figured out how to send an email and emailed Cartoon Network basically begging them to make this a game. Looks like you are taking on that task over a decade later, super cool
This made me nostalgic with the old Card Wars Adventure Time App on the phone many years ago. I tried to find it in the recent years and sadly it was removed from the App Store and Play Store.
This is the series I never knew I needed. As a fellow game developer (although focused more on art and technical animation), I can't wait to see where this game goes! Good luck!
uou are like my new favourite person. i was super sad when card wars got taken off the app store, but youve managed to cook a better version up than any ive seen before.
So excited to see the final product. I truly believe you’ll be in history for this one. With the right showmanship i think this game could start a serious and positive trend in gaming.
There are two board games I met recommend as sources of ideas for a show accurate card wars. One is Faiyum, for its card triggering control of essentially farmlands. The other is the Pocket Battles series of games for its use of laned combat.
good job man. the fact that you managed to recreate this game with such crazy mechanics (that were created just so it would look good in a cartoon) is really impressive
I have been following this since the series' first video and this project is so well thought out and interesting. I'm a big fan of using the little Root figures for creatures as they are so cute and match the adventure time aesthetics
This project is RADICAL! Very big TROME vibes from it! I'm EXCITED to see it go from speculative designing (which I've personally done a lot of) to an actual game (which I've never done)
The Unpredictable Behavior feature, which is interesting, wouldn't be used in a game that is designed to be competitive, and especially not one where net gaining cards is rare. I recommend turning unpredictable behaviors into keywords, and putting them on creatures as an effect with a chance to happen for a die roll. These keywords would then be detailed in the rules. For example, a keyword "Lazy" with a chance of 6 would be, whenever you try to use the card, you roll a d6. If you roll a 6, it skips its turn due to laziness. But stronger cards with a harsher drawback might have a laziness of 4, meaning rolling 4, 5, or 6 would cause that card to become flooped or flipped. That's just one example of a keyword. This would add drawbacks to specific cards without disrupting your draws due to the rarity of net positive draws while keeping the random behavior mechanic. An alternative is giving these behavior cards "draw 1 card" on them, meaning they never disrupt your rare draws, but again, if you want the mechanic to be actually part of the game a not a mechanic no one uses outside decks that utilize it for some reason, tying them to cards might work better.
I have never watched the show, before watching these videos I had no idea what card wars even was. Yet I am so intrigued and invested in this now playable from a show game.
For games to try out I recommend Across The Obelisk (this might help for fleshing out the behavior mechanic)(with its boon/curse system) Pathfinder Card Game (this might also help with behavior mechanic)(Also I believe there is versions of it on Tabletop Simulator) Mansions of Madness (this might help with an idea of companion apps tied to running your game some in a game master sort of way this)(if you implement something similar it could help having more complicated mechanics, or things that roll dice and look at tables associated)
This project is totally radical! I'm very impressed already. I love when people take things, games, objects or props from a show or game, and then make it real. IT makes you feel like you're in the fictional world. I'm very excited for where this will go next. Now if only I had some friends to play this with
Crazy bro I watch the first video a couple months ago and now I see how much its come to very wild man honestly hope this works out, would be a childhood dream unlocked happy to see others have the same common dream kind of.
I think having cards or types that play off of the discard pile/graveyard would be a great idea for how prevalent it is in the game, which could also help the flipping for money part of the game so those creatures being killed after making that money is less detrimental. I think the economy is my favorite aspect because it lets you get more cards while still having downsides which benefits this type of game well, I think having types that benefit off of money or auctioning and use it more than others would be quite interesting and I'm curious if you're still using the worker ability and what it does. Having certain types keep more prevalent abilities or a theme to them in general would be pretty awesome, and I think the randomness of it is amazing. One of my biggest gripes with a lot of card games is that it can be too easy to take advantage of insane combos and leave your opponent in the dust but having adjustable levels of random makes it so much more than just racing to the win. I love your stuff and the progress you've made is nothing short of amazing I really hope you can keep this going and I'm excited to try it out.
I think aslong as the games that happen in the show are technically possible to happen in the final game, then you have alot of freedom in how the final thing turns out
I feel like ur doing this SUPER fast. Like not that long ago you were taking notes on the episodes and explaining that pig fight for the first time. Nice job!
I floop my dev card, he now spends my main phase creating a fully functional card game within this card game!
Exhausted for the next week, doesn't unfloop for the next 7 main phases
The funny thing is, this isn't even that far from what other TCGs have already done. Look up Shahrazad from Magic the Gathering--its effect literally has you play a second game of MtG with whatever cards are still in your deck.
Conditional affect: gets exhausted for 4 turns when board state changes or is verbally abused by enemy combatants.
Having a card that makes a smaller game for you that you have to play for its effect to resolve sounds very much like a card wars card.
What are we waiting for, can we make a fully functional card game?

Really love things like the economy system you've been building, I play a lot of MTG and I love unorthodox win conditions. My deck is packed full of weird card combinations that lead to instantaneous wins lol
In regards to card wars the way to increase the economy's relevance would probably be to build cards that hinge on that gameplay mechanic more than others.
Thinking in terms of MTG and some of its unorthodox win combos here are a few examples:
-there are special land cards called gates, there is a unique card that makes you win the game when having all the gates. Couple this with lots of cards that let you look thru the deck and you're bound to win
-there are special cards that have extreme penalties for yourself, ones like "you take 20 dmg that cannot be avoided" or "you lose the game at the start of your turn". These are meant to be high risk/high reward cards but I like to use the Harmless Offering card to just give them to my opponent to deal with.
-there is an indestructible voodoo doll creature that deals dmg to the opponent when it takes dmg, I like to couple it with big spells that deal massive dmg to everything on the board for max effect
-there is a combo where you set up two cards, one that gives you hp when the opponent is damaged, and the other that damages an opponent when you heal, all that's left is to gain 1hp or deal 1 dmg to win
All this to say that when making new cards you should also think outside the very systems you've been building.

Maybe I build a deck designed to ruin the economy because all of my monters are thieves who get +1/+1 when the economy is low. And you build a businessman deck who gets special defenses when the economy is good!
The amount of sheer dedication you poor into this project is mind blowing!
Keep up the amazing work.
Really awesome what you are doing here, love to see it. I would like to mention the possible element types that could be added based on what is mentioned by Cardwars media. Jake says there are a total of 16 in the show, but is cut off while mentioning them. The transcript manages to tell a total of 9 elements (Corn, Wheat, Blue, Crystals, Acumen, Torpor, Frozen Lakes, Lizard Holes, and Learning). The videogame has 6 (Corn fields, Blue plains, Nicelands, Sandylands, Useless Swamp, and Rainbow). The card game seems to have 1 extra compared to the videogame, but sounds pretty similar to frozen lakes (Icylands).
So the best accumulated list of elements I got so far is...
- Acumen ("Judgement.")
- Blue
- Corn
- Crystals
- Ice (I seperated Frozen lakes and Icylands into two distinct categories.)
- Lake
- Learning
- Lizard
- Nice
- Rainbow (Neutral cards I believe)
- Sand

- Torpor (Inactivity/Sluggishness.)
- Wheat

For example, a keyword "Lazy" with a chance of 6 would be, whenever you try to use the card, you roll a d6. If you roll a 6, it skips its turn due to laziness. But stronger cards with a harsher drawback might have a laziness of 4, meaning rolling 4, 5, or 6 would cause that card to become flooped or flipped. That's just one example of a keyword. This would add drawbacks to specific cards without disrupting your draws due to the rarity of net positive draws while keeping the random behavior mechanic.
An alternative is giving these behavior cards "draw 1 card" on them, meaning they never disrupt your rare draws, but again, if you want the mechanic to be actually part of the game a not a mechanic no one uses outside decks that utilize it for some reason, tying them to cards might work better.
YOU HAVE MY 100% SUPPORT ON THIS, will become a member to help you out in this mod development.
I love seeing this progress and get better, also i like that its playing the background music from the cult of the lamb game
This makes me remember that mobile game they made on the apple store all that time ago in a good nostalgic way. Probably more than 10 years ago.
Absolutely love that you used the meeples from root here!
I am so glad for this guy and so happy to be here
I LOVE YOU BRO, YOU MADE A GAME THAT SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE TO BE PLAYED, PLAYABLE
I might won't play the game, but I love how much effort you guys put into it, and love how much fun you have.😊 Really MATHEMATICAL 🗡️🐶
I have never watched the show, before watching these videos I had no idea what card wars even was. Yet I am so intrigued and invested in this now playable from a show game.
For games to try out I recommend
Across The Obelisk (this might help for fleshing out the behavior mechanic)(with its boon/curse system)
Pathfinder Card Game (this might also help with behavior mechanic)(Also I believe there is versions of it on Tabletop Simulator)
Mansions of Madness (this might help with an idea of companion apps tied to running your game some in a game master sort of way this)(if you implement something similar it could help having more complicated mechanics, or things that roll dice and look at tables associated)
This project is totally radical! I'm very impressed already. I love when people take things, games, objects or props from a show or game, and then make it real. IT makes you feel like you're in the fictional world. I'm very excited for where this will go next. Now if only I had some friends to play this with
Hey can u give the the tutorial how to dwn the game.
Yesssss!!! Finally! Ive always wanted to do this but you beat me to it. 3d printed minis would be a good addition for print to play
Crazy bro I watch the first video a couple months ago and now I see how much its come to very wild man honestly hope this works out, would be a childhood dream unlocked happy to see others have the same common dream kind of.
amazing work so far, I can't wait to see the final product its about time someone made a game that is true to the show. AMAZING WORK!
i could feel the excitement in his voice 🔥. dat's something for the ages to remember
no one can blame u ma guy 💪
so awesome seeing this come together from the start
I think having cards or types that play off of the discard pile/graveyard would be a great idea for how prevalent it is in the game, which could also help the flipping for money part of the game so those creatures being killed after making that money is less detrimental. I think the economy is my favorite aspect because it lets you get more cards while still having downsides which benefits this type of game well, I think having types that benefit off of money or auctioning and use it more than others would be quite interesting and I'm curious if you're still using the worker ability and what it does. Having certain types keep more prevalent abilities or a theme to them in general would be pretty awesome, and I think the randomness of it is amazing. One of my biggest gripes with a lot of card games is that it can be too easy to take advantage of insane combos and leave your opponent in the dust but having adjustable levels of random makes it so much more than just racing to the win. I love your stuff and the progress you've made is nothing short of amazing I really hope you can keep this going and I'm excited to try it out.
That rate at witch you have developed this and put out these videos in insane! Even in just a month the game is going to look unrecognizable!❤
I pray to god this game lives long to where we can have multiple kinds of landscapes other than only the ones that finn and jake used.
I just found your channel about 7 hours ago and just finished this playlist. I am so excited to try this absolutely trome game.
When it's done, this needs an external app for PC or Mobile.
It's so cool, my childhood is being brought to fruition by this man.. I might cry.
so happy that you are working on this good job so far
Hahaha, I love the pieces from ROOT in the prototypes.
Looks like your game is coming together, which is always cool to see! Keep up the good work!
I’m so excited to see the polished result from all this hard work
I am so radical, excited, and trome for this project.
Whattttt that was an idea i have for years and I wished someone will make it a game. Good job dude
been putting off getting ttsim forever now, but once I saw Bigholes' Card Wars I knew it was time
I am so pumped for this playtest release! Radical! Excited! Trome!
Daaaaaaaaaang I missed it :3 I’ve been checking on this for I think like half a year now. I’m happy seeing this grow! I can’t wait for full access!
I think aslong as the games that happen in the show are technically possible to happen in the final game, then you have alot of freedom in how the final thing turns out
I wanted this to be a game back in like 2013 so bad, im glad its finally here
Can't wait to see where this goes, hopefully far!
I feel like ur doing this SUPER fast. Like not that long ago you were taking notes on the episodes and explaining that pig fight for the first time. Nice job!
Pretty cool! I also love the Root lizard cult on the orange side of the map :3
1:00 Dang, the Eyrie and Lizard Cult are making guest appearances in this game
