Go to the site and click 'PLAY NOW' to start the game.



Click 'LET'S GET STARTED'.



Select an occupation from options such as 'Queen' and 'Viking' and click 'NEXT'.



Select 'Special Power' and click 'NEXT'.



12 cards are dealt according to the selected occupation and special power, so choose 3 cards from these to build a deck. The pictures and flavor texts written on the cards are all generated by AI. The card at the top says 'Android the glitter wizard sprinkles the stars with spakles'. The number on the upper right is attack power.



Each card has attributes. There are 5 types of attributes in total. At the top of the image below is 'flame', clockwise, 'air', 'metal', 'earth' and 'water'.



Attributes are related to each other. Fire, for example, is strong against air and metal and deals extra damage. Air is strong against earth and water, metal is strong against air and water, earth is strong against metal and fire, and water is strong against earth and fire.



Click the arrow next to the card to flip through the cards, and when you find a card you like, click the '+' icon to add it to your deck.



After selecting 3 cards, click 'JOIN A MATCH' to start online match matching.



An opponent has been found. Within 10 seconds, drag one card from your deck and bring it onto the field. You can't see your opponent's cards, and on the other hand, your opponent can't see your cards.



When each other puts out a card, a 3 second countdown starts.



After 3 seconds, the card is turned face up. Basically, the one with the larger number on the upper right corner of the card defeats the smaller one. This time the opponent is 93 and I am 87, so I lose.



Then the second round started. Since you can no longer choose the card you chose earlier, choose the one you like from the remaining two and put it on the field.



Again, this number is smaller, but this is where 'attributes' come into play. Since 'metal is strong against water', this metal card can give 'additional damage' to the opponent's water card.



As a result of dealing additional damage, the opponent's attack power decreased from 91 to 81.



The numbers are compared in this state, and finally this one wins.



The same is true for the third round. Since 'air is stronger than the earth', the opponent's attack power is lowered.



This card with 78 attack power won against the opponent whose attack power dropped from 87 to 77.



Regardless of winning or losing, 3 rounds are played, and the winner is the one who wins 2 rounds. If you win, you can select 'NEXT MATCH' to start the next match.



The next opponent is a different opponent from the previous one. You can't change decks, you'll be fighting with the same cards. The goal of the game is to accumulate consecutive victories and record how far you have continued to win.



This time, he lost after three straight wins. Click SUBMIT SCORE.



Enter the name with 3 letters of the alphabet and click 'ENTER'.



You can choose to share your results or return to the main menu.



At the time of article creation, the first person had achieved 40 consecutive victories.
