![]() ![]() It’s fairly simple to put your cards up for sale, setting the price in platinum, and extra simple to bid on cards, or buy them outright. The only other aspect of the game is the auction house, where the real ‘trading’ part of “trading card game” comes in. It shows the continents and a giant volcano where the final battle will likely take place. Of course it will be implemented at some point, as there is already a globe you can have a good look at. A minor gripe, but I play games for the storylines more than the gameplay. Of course, my main drawback at this stage is the lack of a storyline. Yes, your cards need to be stronger than theirs, but if you can use an action card and make it so they can’t block or attack, then it’s like they don’t even have the cards there! It sounds simple, as most card games did to me before this, but with action cards and a power your champion can use when it’s charged, there is much more strategy than I had first assumed. Otherwise you just block it, or worse lose your own card. The only way to destroy their cards is to defend your champion (your avatar in the game) during their attacks, using a card with a stronger attack than they have defence. Unlike Yu-Gi-Oh, you don’t have the option of attacking the opponents cards unless you use an action card - which can be used at any point. You and your opponent have 20HP, so you need to make sure you keep it and take theirs to win. Once you have resources, you can play cards to attack the enemy and defend you. You need to put down resource cards to be able to place any cards on the middle battlefield, but if your initial hand doesn’t have any resource cards, you can pick a new hand with one less card. You draw a hand of seven, then another one every turn, even if you don’t use any. You have a match-deck of 60 random cards from your built-deck - which you can put however many you want into, using the deck builder. Both the AI and PvP matches play the same though, obviously apart from being able to message in the chat box to each other and the AI occasionally being faster than a person. You play against other real people, either via random matchup or by choosing an opponent that is waiting for a match. ![]() In the code so far, the Profile and Campaign mode are locked, but the rest is basically finished. You can also pay monthly to become a VIP which has a weekly booster pack in the price, as well as exclusive tournaments. You use platinum to buy booster packs, which obviously gives you cards faster than taking the time to win them playing against the AI opponents. The currencies are gold and platinum, the latter of which is the premium one. It’s primarily a multiplayer experience, which of course means microtransactions. I’m glad I did, because Hex is quite fun. A self-proclaimed trading card game - so something I wished to experience. Hex started life as a Kickstarter campaign - obviously a successfully funded one. Luckily however, a recent update brought in a tutorial, which made a lot more sense than all the static words could ever hope to. All of my experience was with seeing Pokémon cards and watching Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged. ![]() Instead I had a link to the manual and no prior knowledge of how card games worked. It wasn’t a great sign when I loaded up the game and found they hadn’t implemented a tutorial yet - I knew it was still in beta but I expected that much. You can also build decks to challenge your friends/random opponents by excluding the PvE cards in these decks.// Previews // 4th Sep 2014 - 9 years ago // By Andrew Duncan Hex: Shards of Fate Preview Here, you can use any card/champ in your collection and you're not restricted by the grid. This will take you to the Global Deck Builder. First, from the default starting page, click on Collection on the right hand side. As your champions level up, the grid will gradually ease up on the restrictions to reflect the growth of your champ in the story, for example, 3/2/1/1 at Level 1 becomes 3/3/2/2 at Level 3.Ģ) Yes, you can use them in the Frost Ring Arena. In the campaign, your champions start with a Shard Grid (visible on the right hand side of your deck manager within the campaign) which will restrict the the number of commons/uncommons/rares/legendaries from each shard that you can add to your campaign deck, for instance, 3/2/1/1. 1) No, cards earned are not tied to characters that unlocked them.
