Press release:
Kungfu Card, winner of Dice Con’s Best Chinese Indie Board Game of the Year, is out now Steam in Early Access with a price of $4.99 / £4.59 / €5.19 and a 10% off for 14 days. The game, developed by ZeroCastle Game Studio and Miwu Studio and published by 2P Games, transforms traditional martial arts into a tactical card play creating a unique gameplay where every counter feels like a Jackie Chan movie.
ABOUT THE GAME
Kungfu Card removes complex energy costs and replaces them with pure psychological warfare. Using simple hand rankings from 1 to 9 and four basic moves: Fist, Palm, Leg, and Elbow , which players can chain and combine to create dazzling martial arts combos.
Channeling the essence of classic Hong Kong kung fu films, players can fluidly switch between Offensive, Defensive, and Feint Stances, or trigger a “Disrupt” ability that will turn the tables. This “easy to learn, hard to master” approach allows players to focus on the mind games: do you probe your opponent with small moves, or build your hand for a decisive strike?
The game currently features 1v1 ranked matches, local multiplayer battles, and a solo campaign. Future updates will also introduce a solo PvE roguelike adventure mode, as well as Free-for-All Pillar, a 2–8 player mode.
KEY FEATURES
Dynamic gameplay allows to seamlessly shift strategies and adapt to the flow of battle.
Immerse yourself in the spirit of classic martial arts films, both in gameplay and visual style. Reading the opponent, switching tactics, and turning their strength against them are key to mastering Kungfu Card.
A hard to master gameplay. Anticipate your opponent’s moves, play specific card combinations (such as triplets or straights) to trigger a “Disrupt” , break their flow, and create an opening for a devastating counterattack.
Diverse martial arts schools and styles: Explore multiple fighting styles, from the precise forms of Emei to the unpredictable nature of Drunken Fist. Customize your strategy by combining specific “Principles” and “Techniques.”
Challenging game modes: sharpen your moves in the single-player Roguelike runs, or compete in ranked 1v1 Arena Matches using secret martial manuals. A post-launch update will also introduce the 4–8 player battle royale raising the stakes and chaos to a whole new level.
