![]() Single player is probably the better game, but I haven't played through an entire session yet (I really prefer to play with other people). Ascension is packaged primarily in full-card sets which include everything needed to play. I guess it may play better with more players (currently only played it with 2), but I rarely get the opportunity to play with anyone else besides my sister. This results in giant swings in player abilities and makes turns feel either extremely gratifying (if you end up with a good market tile) or extremely useless, like you are constantly playing catch-up/scrambling to make up the difference (if you don't have a good market tile option). This is a new edition of Ascension that is strictly for 2 players and takes cards from many different expansions and combines them for a specialized 2 player experience. It's a race to get the market items before your opponent does and 1st player has the real advantage.Some games have multiple ice cream stalls of the same colour and no +1 fruit baskets and other games have 3 +1 fruit baskets and only 1 ice cream stall. The 10th Anniversary edition is all the same as the original Ascension, but it has a new board. The game designer is working with iOS partner Playdek to add features like cross-platform play to the current game version or “transition users to a newly released app with all the features we are promising in this Kickstarter.I REALLY DISLIKE how random the market is. Whenever you acquire or defeat one of the cards in the center row, instead of replacing it from the draw pile, move all the cards on it’s left over one space to the right, then draw to replace the now empty left-most spot. ![]() We feel that Ascension Online deserves a dedicated team, one that can commit all of their time to developing for new platforms, creating new features, and ensuring timely set releases.”īackers have access to rewards such as exclusive physical and digital promo cards and decks, unique avatars, free expansion downloads, and more - like a bobblehead, playmat, and much fancier incentives at the mid-tier and higher levels. With Ascension’s solo play, you set up the game as usual, grab your starting ten-card deck, and lay out 50 Honor Tokens. “With this Kickstarter, however, we will be able to bring on additional programmers to develop Ascension Online in parallel. The Ascent is a solo and co-op Action-shooter RPG set in a cyberpunk world. “Our programming team currently has their hands full making SolForge,” the campaign page reads. ![]() (The fourth expansion, Rise of Vigil, is due out in April and even earlier for backers.) The team is focusing on enhancing the Android and PC version with new features, including online tournaments, a campaign mode, and a base game that’s free to anyone who wants to play it - with in-app purchases in the form of additional expansions and bonus features (cosmetic changes, special event tournaments, and so on). Stone Blade introduced the physical card game in 2010 and has since released three expansions (Return of the Fallen, Storm of Souls, and Immortal Heroes) plus an iOS version, along with supplemental promo cards. “We think it’s time to take Ascension to the next level.” “The Ascension iOS app has been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times, and players have logged over three million games played online,” the Kickstarter page reads. Now it wants to bring Ascension Online to Android and PC “by the end of 2013.” The audience is clearly there, and today - one day into the campaign’s launch - Stone Blade is already approaching half of its funding goal, with more than $57,000 in donations pouring in. On top of that, its previous Kickstarter for the SolForge digital trading-card game amassed nearly twice its target goal of $250,000. There are daily quests for each level bracket that also include dungeon. The team has already found huge success with the mobile version of Ascension on iOS, tallying 2 million play sessions in December alone. You can access a variety of rotating daily quests via the call boards in capital cities. A lot of companies need an entire month to publicize a project and convince would-be backers that it’s worth their money, but not Stone Blade.
