Mindbug: First Contact EN (Base Set – Retail Version)

Product detailed description

In the game Mindbug, you summon hybrid creatures and send them into battle against your opponent - but when you summon a creature, your opponent can use one of their Mindbugs to take control of it. Outsmart your opponent in a fascinating tactical battle, where having the best cards and playing them at the wrong time can be deadly for you!

The cards in the game Mindbug represent strange creatures with unique and powerful abilities, such as Compost Dragon, Snail Hydra, or Kangasaurus Rex. Each player starts the game with ten creature cards (five in hand and five in the draw pile) and tries to use them to reduce the opponent's life points to zero. Additionally, each player receives two Mindbug cards, which can be used when played to control the mind of the opponent's creature. This innovative "Mindbug" mechanism is the core of the game and leads to a unique decision-making process, making Mindbug completely different from other card games.

Playing a card in Mindbug does not require any resources. As a result, the game has no preparation phase (such as resource gathering) and does not require weak cards. Because no deck is formed, you can start playing with just one deck. There is also no unfair advantage, as players draw cards from the same deck and always have the opportunity to control the thoughts of the opponent's strongest card. Ultimately, it all depends on your own decisions, making the game incredibly fair and competitive.
