Another successful kickstarter card game. Looks good. It's currently in alpha. Just wondering if anyone here is a backer for this program? Looking for some trustworthy review. haha. hextcg.com/

Looks good They most certainly have a better Kickstarter video than the one Wulven put together for their KS project!!!

It certainly looks good. However, I'm not a fan of pay to win games. It seems that you will need to spend a couple bucks in order to get a strong deck.

Hex pulled off a very successful campaign but the mechanics seemed more complex (read troublesome) to apply on mobile gaming so I gave it a miss.
Do keep us posted on your progress!

Hi, I am a backer and the game is really fun. It's still in alpha, so it's quite buggy. There are really cool card combos and it's possible to counter your opponent on their turn. There is more strategy to it. I can't wait to see how the PvE works.
My understanding is it's really like MTG, so if you liked that game you will like it. They are trying to make it into an e-sport which would be cool. This would allow people to make real money playing it.
They will be adding modes for tablets and such at a later date. The game is really fun to play and they have a tonne of cash to put into it so I'm sure when it's ready it will rock.
BTW, it is a similar pay scheme as SE. You can play the AI, PvE, and get good cards. Then you can sell them on the Auction house and use that money to buy more cards for playing against player, PvP. There are cards that can only be used in each gameplay mode and some that crossover. They have a membership you can join for $4 per month where you get a booster pack per week. You can use these for draft tournaments or even sell them on the AH. It's possible to get decent decks without paying much, just like SE.

I am not a backer but currently eagerly awaiting this one. I don't mind spending a few bucks on a ccg if it is good, and it looks like they are putting a lot of work into this one. everybody I have heard talking about it speaks very highly about it.

It does look good. Looking forward to see how the campaign raid works for PVE too.

Hey guys, just want to give you an update on this game. It is in closed beta right now but they have already said that they will release their second set in August. By this time next year they will have the third set out and have more cards than SE. They have been doing a lot of work on the game. PvE isn't in yet but they have drafts and the auction house will be added in the next few weeks.
If anyone is interested in trying out the game let me know. I could possibly get some beta keys from people that I know that have some extras.

I will find one for you. The Auction House is in now so you can sell cards. There are some starter trials too so you can add a few cards to your deck.

samche999 I sent you a Beta Code, enjoy the game, it's super fun. For the others I will do what I can to find more Beta Keys. Just a note samche999, all of the starter decks are basically equally powerful so none are better than the others. Just play the one that sounds like the most fun style.

So far, no more beta keys guys. Sorry. There is a thread on the main forums at hextcg.com. You might want to go there to check out if you can get one. My IGN is Cuzbot. Also, check this out coryhudsonjones.tumblr.com/post/81619510529/the-art-of-hex-book. Bobbypim you might like this because it's about how the art is done for the game. Goes to show you what it really takes to make the art good for a game and not just picking up random artwork from Deviant Art. I know it's all Kyle can afford, I just want to show you guys an alternative and really well done game.

Just an update for those of you interested in playing this game, it is now in open beta. If you go to hextcg.com you can now play the game and it's awesome. They don't have the PvE in yet but it's getting close. They really need lots of people to sign up now to do major stress tests. 2 weeks ago I participated in an 800+ person tourney.
They are working super hard to make sure the game is very stable. I think they can run 128 person tourneys with no problems now. I mostly just play 8 person Swiss draft and I love it. I like draft because it's more fair to play, it doesn't matter who has the better card pool. Plus, in this game you keep the cards you open.
