Mindbug - First Contact (Eng)

Summon hybrid creatures and send them into battle against your opponent! But be careful: your opponent can use one of their Mindbugs to take control of it.

Outsmart your opponent in a fascinating duel, where it can be deadly for you to have the best cards and play them at the wrong time.

Mindbug combines the ease of a simple card game with the strategic depth of a complex strategy game. The result is a skill-based dueling card game that feels completely different from any other card game you have tried before.

Although Mindbug is extremely easy to get into, it continues to surprise you with new and exciting challenges and combinations. The unique Mindbug mechanic allows you to control your opponent's creatures and leads to unique decisions that require even veteran card players to adapt their traditional playstyle.
