Hearthstone-like CCG Kards' gets a third expansion with new cards and mechanics

Despite its outward appearance as a Hearthstone-clone and the painfully bland name, over the past year KARDS - the free-to-play WWII-themed digital card game - has asserted itself as perhaps the most interesting new take on the 'digital CCG' model. With its addictive tug-of-war-style play, historically inspired mechanics, and excellent period-propaganda and original art, KARDS fills an interesting and previously unfulfilled market niche for players who are both wargamers and CCG fans.

With the release of its newest expansion, Breakthrough, the team at 1939 Games continues to build on the excellent foundation they've created since the game's official release earlier this year.

Breakthrough marks the game's third content expansion. The first, Allegiance, was released last winter while the game was still in Early Access and added France and Italy as ally nations alongside a bunch of new cards. The second, Theaters of War, added fewer new cards but delivered a set of well-constructed single-player campaigns for each of the five major factions.
