Card Game Island coming soon to KardBoard Kings

Hey card sharks!

If you were watching the Akupara section of MIX Next Publisher Spotlight you would have seen news of the major content update coming to Kardboard Kings called Card Game Island! You can watch the trailer here!

In the Card Game Island update, you’ll actually play the card game and face off against other characters by buying a plane ticket to Card Game Island! I’ll go deeper into the card game in the future.

Also coming in the Card Game Island update is a new hard mode appropriately named King of Games. You’ll need to be a king at Kardboard Kings to not close down shop. Each day your reputation takes a small hit, you pay taxes every week, and more. While each small little thing doesn’t do too much but together makes the game that much harder. Can you keep the card shop afloat in this new unfavorable mode?

Kardboard Kings Season 2 Launches!

Hey, card sharks!

The second big content update for Kardboard Kings is now live!

We've got three new card sets and a brand new (much requested) gameplay feature to help endgame players churn through their massive collections.

As a note for any achievement hunters out there, all achievements referencing card sets (such as collecting a shiny of every card in the game) will be updated in 0.7.9 to require the new card sets as well.

We’ll be going dark for a while until the next big content patch is ready but… boy let me tell you, it’s gonna be a doozy. Without spoiling anything, I just wanna say… the #1 most requested gameplay feature is coming to Kardboard Kings. It’s happening.

[h3]New Card Sets[/h3]
We’ve added 3 new card sets to the game, Noodle Love, Raw Sugar and Pushing Up Daisies from the artists raindemitree, Robert Ruszczyk and ungfio respectively. These new cards look absolutely stunning and I hope you’re excited to add them to your collection!

[h3]The Bargain Bin[/h3]
A highly requested feature from deep endgame collectors, the Bargain Bin is going to help you dump your cards without needing to risk a clearance sale or spend days flooding the shop with dead weight. Instead, the Bargan Bin will let you drop any card in for $0.25, making it nice and easy for you to clear out all the cards you’d rather not worry about selling.

[h3]Buddy Gets Rich: Bargain Hunting[/h3]
And last but not least, if there’s a new patch, that typically means there’s a new episode of Buddy Gets Rich on the horizon! I’ll be playing at 11AM Pacific this Friday, August 5th. You can feel free to give our Twitch stream a follow to make sure you get the go live notification!

As ever, thank you for your support and please feel free to report any issues to us on the Steam forums or the Kardboard Kings Discord!

New cards, new decorations!

Hey, card sharks!

The first big content update for Kardboard Kings is now live!

We've got three new card sets, eight new decorations and a host of bugfixes all come in our first big content update for Kardboard Kings. The new sets are each done by a new slate of guest artists (who absolutely knock it out of the park, by the by) and will seamlessly add themselves into your current save or a brand new file. Either way works! Same thing will happen with the eight new decorations, these ones coming entirely through Declan's weekly shop goals. Be on the lookout for those exclusives!

As a note for any achievement hunters out there, all achievements referencing card sets (such as collecting a shiny of every card in the game) will be updated in 0.6.3 to require the new card sets as well.

We've got more plans for more features in the next big update (especially to help players in the deep late game with huge card collections) so you can bet I'll be showing that off in the not-too-distant future as well.

Check out the full patch notes:

Features:
  • Added 3 new card sets to the game, Hell of a Summer, Legends of Morthia and Oasis of the Unreal.
  • Added 8 new decorations to Declan's weekly shop goals rewards.
  • Added a small UI counter to show the number of cards in a player's inventory.


Bug fixes:
  • Added missing localised lines.
  • Fixed alignment of various Set Posters.
  • Fixed Mail issue caused by receiving multiple handwritten letters on a single day.
