The cast of Fantasy Strike has acquired magical gems which give power, but at what price? Those who hold too many gems are cursed forever. What’s worse, the ultimate gem to rule them all has been forged into a single, mighty scepter. Whoever holds it wields even more power at an even greater price.

In Puzzle Strike 2, players build their deck as they play, giving them the tools to arrange and manipulate their set of colored gems. These gems can be “crashed” (destroyed) in order to build up power for four different super moves as well as to flood other players with more gems. As this process unfolds, gems will fly back and forth between players as they desperately try to remain under the threshold of corruption. Holding the scepter “helps,” but can also doom the greedy.

Expansion For Pandánte

Pandánte is a gambling game played by the Pandas of the Pandalands. In this game, lying is encouraged (humans use the softer term “bluffing”). You’ll often have to claim you have a hand that you don’t really have. Be careful though, because other players can call you out for fun and profit.

Pandánte: Light & Dark expansion adds different Light and Dark Panda abilities to the base game for players who want fun and joy or misery and woe! The expansion also adds several extras that can be mixed and matched, including:

Casino Cards:
Each gambit, your group visits a new casino in the Pandalands. Each casino plays the game a little bit differently!

Panda Champions:
Each player takes on the role of a famous Panda. Choose Pandas however you want before the game starts and stick with your Panda throughout the game. Each Panda gives a different special power.

Diamond Dreams:
The blue diamond chips are power ups in this mode. Spend them wisely to get big boosts when you need it.

The Light & Dark abilities, Casinos, Panda Champions, and Diamond Dreams mode options give you 16 possible combinations of game modes. In addition to that, the 17th mode is a seriousface gambling mode. Are you Panda enough to risk real money?

Once you go beyond the Starter Set, you'll get to play 3 heroes at at time and have access to a lot more cards during the course of a game. That said, the Starter Set helps you learn how the Codex system works with fewer cards that are simpler.

Reimplements Yomi

 

Yomi is a fighting game in card form in which physical dexterity is replaced by hand management skills. Just like in a fighting game, you have to know your character, know the matchup, and know your opponent. Each character has a deck that follows the same conventions as a deck of playing cards. This makes it easy to learn the contents of your deck: numbered cards are normal moves, face cards are special moves, and aces are super moves.

Yomi: Panda vs G.Panda — which can be played as a standalone game or as an expansion for either the first or the second editions of Yomi — features two kinds of panda decks, one inspired by the bluffing in the game Pandante.

Yomi
is a fighting game in card form in which physical dexterity is replaced by hand management skills. Just like in a fighting game, you have to know your character, know the matchup, and know your opponent. Each character has a deck that follows the same conventions as a deck of playing cards. This makes it easy to learn the contents of your deck: numbered cards are normal moves, face cards are special moves, and aces are super moves.

Yomi: Round 2 is a standalone item that contains four characters (out of twenty) for the second edition of Yomi. With these characters, you can compete in 1v1, 2v2, 2v1, and solo modes, with each player in the game needing one character deck. The character decks in Yomi: Round 2 can also be played against those in Yomi: Round 1 or any of the individual character decks that comprise the second edition of Yomi. As for the characters, they are:

Quince (challenging to play well)

  • Quince can play TWO cards in combat sometimes!
  • Quince can spin his combat card around after what the opponent played!
  • Politicians are straightforward and truthful, but this deck is very tricky to play

Onimaru (easy to understand)

  • Onimaru has attacks that can beat any other attacks in the game.
  • Onimaru relies on single hits for high damage, rather than big combos.
  • He can guard crush through an opponent's block.

Bal-Bas-Beta (very difficult to understand)

  • Put your opponent at long range and they can't even damage BBB, but BBB can damage them.
  • BBB can play relatively safely while dealing low damage, then shift to high damage plays to end the game.
  • Robots have a lot of moving parts, so it takes some thinking to understand BBB, but once you do he isn't as hard to play as it seems.

Troq (easy to understand)

  • Troq is simple and powerful.
  • Troq smash.
  • Troq throw 'u'.

    Pandánte is a gambling game played by the Pandas of the Pandalands in the Fantasy Strike universe. In this game, lying is okay. (Humans use the softer term "bluffing".) You can lie about which abilities you have access to, and you can lie about whether your cards are strong enough to win the pot! And if you win a pot by lying, you gain the favor of a Panda Lord. Be careful, though, because other players can call you out on your lies for fun and profit.

    Each round (called a "gambit"), players try to build the best hand they can from their two private cards and five community cards, similar to gameplay in Texas Hold'em Poker. Over the course of a gambit, players bet several times while making claims about how good their hands are and using abilities to influence the game. Each suit gives access to a different ability and if you don't have the one you need, just lie about it and hope you get away with it.

    You can play Pandánte as a social game with a definite win condition and no player elimination, or you can play it as an ongoing gambling game in which players are eliminated when they lose their money, like in Poker. You could even play with real money if you're Panda enough.

    Tarot Sleeves 70 x 120mm for 79 cards (including 6 rules cards)

    Contents:

    • 180 professional grade clay poker chips in four different denominations
    • A deck of 79 oversized cards
    • Dealer button
    • 6 player boards
    • Rulebook
    • The box itself has a textured, leatherette finish and a magnetic internal latch

    Expansion Pandánte: Light & Dark

    Pandánte is a light-hearted, Panda-themed gambling game with an emphasis on lying. Players lie about their hands all the time, and that's half the fun. It's also suitable to play for real money and has a higher skill ceiling than Human Poker. (Yes, really!)

    It's a little bit like the Human Poker game Texas Hold'em, but you get to improve your hand with "snacks" cards, lie about your hand, and cause mischief with a few simple abilities. You don't have to fold nearly as much as in Human Poker, and there's no Panda-elimination either, so everyone can play the whole time.


    If you're new to Pandánte, this new Second Edition base set has the Light & Dark expansion content built right in!


    This expansion adds tons of content to the game while simplifying the base game. There are now fewer rules than the earlier version of the game, and it's faster to teach and faster to play.

    You can choose how much complexity you want by mixing and matching the many new game modes such as Casino cards, Panda Champions, Diamond Dreams mode, and the Light & Dark abilities.

      The playmats help you separate your gem pile and other game zones, plus they look great! They're made of the same high quality mouse pad material as the Yomi playmats, and you could even use them as mouse pads.

      This upgrade pack is compatible with the second edition (pink boxed) version of Puzzle Strike, and not the first edition Deluxe with the wooden chips.

      Yomi is a card game that simulates a fighting game. It tests your ability to predict how your opponents will act and your ability to judge the relative value of cards from one situation to the next. Also, it lets you do fun combos and be a panda. There are 10 characters to choose from, each with their own deck, abilities, and style. Each deck also doubles as a regular deck of playing cards with beautiful artwork (the complete game features a whopping 120 different character illustrations).

      Yomi is the Japanese word for “reading”, in this case as in reading the mind of your opponent. Yomi: Fighting Card Game is a simple competitive card game that simulates a fight between two characters. Each deck in Yomi represents one character, with 10 decks in the first release.

      Champion fighting game tournament player and tournament organizer David Sirlin designed the game to test the skills of Valuation and Yomi. Valuation refers to your ability to judge the relative value of moves (or cards) as they change over the course of the game. Yomi, the game's title, refers to your ability to guess which moves your opponent will make. There is more to it than guessing, though: some players have the uncanny ability to “guess” right almost every time, no matter the game.

      The core mechanic is a paper-rock-scissors guessing game between attack, throw, and block/dodge (sometimes modified by special ability cards). Attacks and throws usually let you follow up with combo cards from your hand, while blocks let you draw a card. While it first seems "just random," you soon discover that the unequal and uncertain payoffs in this guessing game allow you really read what the opponent will do. Yomi captures the kind of mind games that occur during the high level in fighting game tournaments.X

      Family Puzzle Strike (Third Edition)


      Puzzle Strike Shadows is the standalone expansion to Puzzle Strike (3rd Edition). You can play it by itself or combine it with the base set. The expansion contains 10 new characters, 24 new puzzle chips, as well as:

      • Panic Time rule to prevent games from going too long
      • A 3-player and 4-player mode with no player elimination and that allows crashing your gems to whoever you want
      • A 2v2 Team Battle Mode
      • A Custom Clockwork mode to draft your own character
      • Puzzle chips and character chips updated to ensure healthy competitive play in tournaments
      • New components: game boards and screens

      Puzzle Strike is a card game played with cardboard chips instead of cards that simulates a puzzle video game such as Puzzle Fighter or Tetris.

      It's a deckbuilding game, which means you build your deck *as* you play the game. Every game is different because the bank starts with a different set of chips each time. Also, there are 10 characters to choose from in the base set, each with different gameplay. Between all that, there are over 411 MILLION starting conditions in a 4-player game, and even more if you include the expansion.

      A built-in comeback mechanic means that when you're on the edge of losing, you're also able to do even more combos than usual.

      You don't have to worry about shuffling cards because you just put your cardboard tokens in a bag and shake them up to shuffle! Plus, it’s pretty ballin’ to play a game with chips. Play it on your yacht, impress potential mates, etc.

      Though the game is fun even if you're terrible at it, it's also balanced for high level play by veteran asymmetric game balancer David Sirlin (Street Fighter HD Remix, Puzzle Fighter HD Remix, Kongai, Yomi, and Flash Duel).

      Puzzle Strike: Bag of Chips is all that and a bag of chips!

      Puzzle Strike is a card game played with cardboard chips instead of cards that simulates a puzzle video game called puzzle fighter that, in-turn, simulates the fighting game street fighter that is emulated in puzzle fighter

      If you don’t understand any of that, that’s ok! Puzzle Strike is a complete game in a box that has the fun of a customizable card game without the marketing scheme of selling you parts of the game in random packs. You build your deck *as* you play the game. Every game is different because the bank starts with a different set of chips each game. Also, there are 10 characters to choose from, each with different gameplay. Between all that, there are over 411 MILLION starting conditions in a 4-player game.

      A built-in comeback mechanic means that when you're on the edge of losing, you're also able to do even more combos than usual.

      Shuffling cards takes too long and is boring, so in Puzzle Strike you just put your cardboard tokens in a bag and shake them up to shuffle! Plus, it’s pretty ballin’ to play a game with chips. Play it on your yacht, impress potential mates, etc.

      Though the game is fun even if you're terrible at it, it's also balanced for high level play by veteran asymmetric game balancer David Sirlin (Street Fighter HD Remix, Puzzle Fighter HD Remix, Kongai, Yomi, and Flash Duel.)

      Puzzle Strike contains:

      • Almost 350 cardboard chips
      • 4 cloth bags
      • 8-page full color rulebook
      • Colorful box with inside designed to separate the chips by type, for storage
