Description
Custom Heroes is a card game that combines climbing trick mechanics with a unique card-crafting twist. Players aim to get rid of their cards as quickly as possible, using the classic climbing trick mechanic where they must play cards of equal or higher value than the previous player. However, things get interesting with the introduction of advancements that can be sleeved onto cards, changing their value or adding new abilities. As players progress through rounds, they must manage their resources and time their plays carefully to maximize their impact. The game requires strategy not just for the current hand, but also for future hands, as the distribution of values shifts and changes. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of just 45 minutes, Custom Heroes is a fun and engaging game for 2 to 6 players that's perfect for a quick game night.
