THE SCENE3 TRADING CARD GAME!
“IT’S NOT ONLY A CARD GAME, IT’S SOMETHING I GO TO WHENEVER I NEED STRATEGIES TO DEAL WITH LIFE”.
- Michael
This guide will quickly teach you everything you need to know to start playing the SCENE3 card game:
- Building the deck
- Rules of the game
- How to determine the winner at the end
Building the deck
A deck consists of exactly 6 cards with the following constraints:
- You can have max 1 Legendary or Beyond card
- You can have max 3 Extreme cards
- There are no other constraints, that we know of yet.
Rules of the game
Before starting, shuffle your deck and place 3 cards faced down in front of you (facedown cards) and 3 cards on your hand.
THE ONE WHO BOTH PLAYERS DEEM TO BE OF THE LOWEST CLASS TAKES THE FIRST TURN.
Each turn one player plays a card, this triggers the ability of the card.
The card stays in play until it is taken out by another card or itself.
If a card has a passive ability, the ability is in effect until the card is taken out or disabled by another card.
active abilities only trigger once for the turn it’s played.
Abilities should be applied from oldest to newest, if two cards cancel each other out,
the card that was played first “wins”.
How to determine the winner
The game ends when all cards are played, both facedown and from the hand.
To determine the winner, count the amount of cards left on the playing field after all abilities have been calculated, the player with the most cards left wins! If both players have the same amount of cards, the one with the highest sum of power levels in play wins.
If both players have the same amount of power levels, flip a card to decide the winner.
