Lunarch Studios’ Prismata is a game you may have heard of recently if you’re a fan of digital card games such Hearthstone or Magic: The Gathering. Prismata aims to hybridize the card game genre by mixing in RTS-style combat, while removing the traditional deck building bottlenecks that tend to hold back players the most. Prismata is currently in the final days of their Kickstarter campaign, and are nearing close to their initial funding goal.
CCG Writes - "Prismata is a very strange game as it doesn't belong to any existing subgenre. It combines real-time strategy elements, deckbuilding elements through over a hundred different units, and the interface of a board game. The main goal of Prismata is to eliminate all forces on the opposing side of the board while protecting yours. It’s a surprisingly simple concept but the way it is executed is nothing of the sort."
Shaun M Jooste writes: "Prismata is a fun and challenging deckbuilding strategy game that many will love. Even though the game is still in Early Access, there is enough going on in this game to state that it is very nearly close to perfection."
Prismata is certainly different, charismatic, and lacks charm. Sound all over the place? Well, not to those who had written the story it seems!
