Frozen Shard Games: "World War II: TCG" Digital Card Game


Just received the news from Isidro that Frozen Shard Games has launched a Kickstarter campaign to launch their first World War Two Card Game! You can find their Kickstarter Campaign here.

I have just read the kickstarter page and watched the video and I quite like the game due to its subject the second world war and the look of the game. I'm looking forward in more news updates and hope the Kickstarter will be succesful for this small Spanish indie studio. Enough here's some fragments from the Kickstarter to give you an idea of the look of the game and gameplay.

From former Blizzard Entertainment workers: "World War II: TCG" a Multiplatform Digital Card Game inspired by the WW2 historic events. The first “World War II” Multiplatform Card Game for iOS, Android & PC! World War II: TCG is the first multiplatform Digital Card Game based on World War II, available for iOS, Android and browser. With over 200 unique cards and unique strategic features. The game core is completed and we expect to launch it by the last quarter of this year, however, due to our funds depleting we had to move some great game features to the backlog, hoping to implement them once the game has been released.

If you decide to help us by pledging the game we will make sure to cover the expenses of the studio untill launch and even hire the extra programmers we need to have all those great features implemented.



World War 2: TCG currently provides:
  • Over 200 Unique Cards.
  • 4 Factions: German, Russian, Americans & Japanese.
  • Single Player never ending campaign: We are initially launching the game with 10 campaigns. However, we are committed to continue adding new campaigns to keep the single player experience alive and challenging. Your hero will always have tougher missions to take on!
  • Historical Units, weapons, heroes, places and campaigns: In addition to the fictional campaign story, we also wanted to provide accurate representations of the greatest historical events that took place in World War 2. You will be able to play the 6th Ranger Battalion, use a Mosin-Nagant, build a Great Gustav or take part on your own Operation Sea Lion.
  • Realistic and brilliant Art Style: We wanted an art style that submerges the players into a warlike atmosphere that takes the Military Card Game genre to a whole new level. World War modeler and artist Anastasios Polychronis provides the art while Ironbelly Studios helps us develop a GUI style that fits perfectly into the game.
  • Original Soundtrack: Immerse yourself deeply into the game thanks to the great Original Sound Track that Riverette (Former Blue Cola Recordings) created for us.
  • PvP Mode: A Cross-platform multiplayer online experience with an Elo ranking system will be available thanks to Gamedonia, including a mode to play against your friends offline. There are many plans for the PvP mode, but we need your help to be able to include them all, so keep reading!
