Description

Swordplay is a quick, fun, strategic and easy-to-learn two-player card game in which players are engaged in a one-on-one swordfight. Players manage a small hand of cards and a deck that runs out quickly, choosing and playing moves in order to try and hit their opponent. Three hits wins the game. Cards represent attacks, blocks, and evades, and the trick of the game is Refresh - a highly vulnerable card that you must play to reset and enhance your deck. —description from the designer
