Starting with Offline Mode you can create a game with up to four players, set their difficulties (determined by the green half-block that you can click to switch to red), set them to CPU or human, and finally determine which expansions you want in the game…which there are a lot of expansions and promo sets to use for a combine total of near 700 cards. The first thing you’ll notice is that there are both offline and online modes, but each one has a couple of issues to contend with. I’ve read it’s basically a port of the iOS version of the game, but outside of checking it out at GenCon a couple of years ago I’ve never played the iOS version…or the physical game for that matter. So now that we know how the game works, let’s take a look at the Steam version. While not an issue with the Steam version, I find this a bit annoying as it can turn what seems like a sure win into defeat depending on what’s in your deck, though it does add a bit of strategy to the game. However, just having the most Honor tokens isn’t enough as you’ll have to go through your hand, deck, discard pile, and Construct pile and add up the Honor in the bottom left of those cards and add them to your total.
On the other player’s final turns they may still gain Honor even though the pile is gone.
if you start the game and take the final Honor token on your turn, all other players still get to take their turns). The game ends when the final Honor token is taken AND the last player to start the game has taken his turn (ie. The goal is to end up with more Honor than your opponent(s)…sort of, and here we come to my only real quirk with the game itself (as in the actual card game, NOT the Steam version of the game). While there are multiple ways to gain Honor, defeating monsters is the most typical way to do so. Runes are used to purchase other cards from the central row, such as Heroes and Constructs, while Power is used to defeat monsters in the central row. You begin with eight rune cards and two power cards. Each game starts with a certain amount of honor in the Honor Pool dependent on the number of players (60 honor for two players, 75 for three players, and 90 for four players, though these are only the recommend amounts and you can change them if you wish). In Ascension the goal is to obtain more honor than your opponent. These new cards can give you more resources or options to help towards the goal of the game, which could be any number of things depending on the game. Those cards will be placed in your discard pile after they’re purchased and then shuffled into your deck once your deck runs out of cards. both players may buy cards from this area). At the start your cards will only generate resources that can be used to buy more cards from a main central area that’s shared by both players (ie. In general each player starts with ten cards as their “deck”, draws five each turn and, typically plays all five. If you’ve never played a deck building game, here’s how they work in a nutshell (or at least the few I’ve played). Many different DBGs exist and today I’ll be taking a look at the Steam version of Ascension. The easiest way to think of a Deck Building Game is a game in which both players share the same pool of cards in which to make their own decks during the course of the game. If you’re familiar with Collectible Card Games, this is similar, but not really. Playable as a stand-alone game, and completely compatible with other Ascension expansions.A couple of years ago while on a trip to GenCon I checked out the tablet version of a game called Ascension, a new (at the time) Deck Building Game. This set includes Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer, Ascension: Return of the Fallen King, Rat King Theme Pack, Rat Queen Theme Pack, Samael Claus Theme pack, Leprechaun Theme Pack and the entire first year of promo cards! Beautiful cards and premium components make this the perfect centerpiece for any Ascension collection.
