Card games are very popular now, and they can be found more and more often in the open spaces of the App Store. But Earthcore is not your typical card strategy. Rather, it resembles "Rock, Scissors, Paper" and is built according to the same game principles.

Most likely, thinking over the rules of the game, the developers were inspired by this particular picture:

Just imagine now fire in place of a stone, earth in place of scissors, and water instead of paper. Now you have already learned the rules of the Earthcore game. Why air was not added to these three elements is completely incomprehensible to me.

You will need maps to play. Some of them will be given to you at the very beginning, some will appear in your deck after passing several levels, others can be bought at the store for virtual coins or crystals.

Each card depicts a creature belonging to one of the elements, with its own risk factor: 4, 6, 9, and further in ascending order. According to this coefficient, either you or your opponent's health decreases during the battle.

In addition, many creatures have their own superpowers: someone can turn the opponent's card into dust, someone can inflict an additional blow, and someone can swap cards. There are a lot of heroes and creatures in the game, so remembering all these abilities at first is simply impossible. It is better to click on the card and read at the bottom of the screen what it gives you in the battle with your opponent.

The game is beautifully drawn and voiced, it has a lot of details, and it takes a lot of time to study them. But, despite all this abundance of information, the game is very simple, and I'm not sure if I want to go through it to the end, since each new level is similar to the previous one. In general, fans of card strategies, download and give your verdict to the game world of Earthcore.
