I'm a member of the indie studio Abrakam, creators of the strategy card game Faeria.
Why am I here?
Well first of all, I'd like to thank Fluxflashor for giving me permission to make the thread.
Next, I'm here to answer any question you may have about the game.
Finally, I have a few Steam keys to give out to anyone interested.
We don’t have the resources for any kind of massive marketing. We rely often by word of mouth and by small promotions.
To get straight to the point, we've recently released our game as a one-time-purchase on Steam, with supporting DLC. It's a big step for us, and we're looking to invite as many people as we can to try it. One of our main goals has been to deliver a cool card game without the need to spend hundreds of dollars on packs in order to play and be competitive with everyone else.
Faeria has been critically acclaimed during Early Access and our previous Free-to-Play model with 85% positive Steam reviews. We believe Faeria is a game that can appeal to many people who frequent these forums.
Many of us in the studio are fans of Hearthstone, and I myself have recently broken 3000 Arena wins. I know that's peanuts compared to a lot of people here, but I'm proud!
What is Faeria?
Put simply, Faeria is a turn-based card game that takes place on a "living board." We call it a living board because the players build it as they go, making each game a different experience.
You make Mountains, Lakes, Forests, or Deserts - and use those lands to play cards. In the screenshot above someone is playing one of the new cards we just released in the last expansion - Rain of Fish.
For example, if you want to play a Hydra - you're gonna need to make a bunch of lakes. If you want to play an Ogre, you're gonna need some mountains. Nothing stops you from making both Mountains and Lakes to play both, either. You can pretty much do what you want.
We've got over 100 hours of solo content, including co-op missions and puzzles. The puzzles get pretty tough, by the way.
Multiplayer supports Ranked, Casual, or Pandora mode. Pandora is basically our Draft mode, with some added tweaks like special treasure cards that only appear there.
We're very community focused and have a fairly active esports scene where we run $2500 tournaments every season.
Faeria is available on Steam. We recently released the first part of our latest expansion, Fall of Everlife, on July 18th. The next 20 cards release August 21st - featuring subtype (tribal synergy) for the first time!
I'm not really sure the best way to do it, but I think we'll go with this:
Each day at around 05:00AM CEST I'll pick a random person who has posted in the thread and hook them up with BOTH a Faeria key and Fall of Everlife DLC key.
Edit: Hey, this thread is still bumping! About once a week or so I will be giving away:
Five Faeria keys
Three Fall of Everlife keys
Whenever I post the keys, I'll also pop in a free key for anyone who can grab it first.
I'll keep it going as long as there is interest in the thread or until the mods ask me to stop!
Ask me anything
That's it! Ask me anything you'd like about the game or our studio. I'll answer to the best of my ability.
As a Hearthstone and Faeria player I can say that these two games can peacefully coexist and complement each other. For me, Faeria is like a combination of a card game and chess. Beautiful art, interactions and very interesting mechanics. I highly recommend Faeria to anyone passionate for card games and strategic games in general.
Seems awesome! As a longtime fan of card games, I'd love to give this one a try too. I've heard great things about this game, and seen a few big streamers play it.
This looks fantastic, and I'm honestly really excited to look into it further. I've played a lot of Hearthstone, and I've been playing games like Chess and Catan all my life, so seeing this is quite exciting!
I saw this game long ago, can you tell me please — why do I cant download it from GooglePlay??? Im from Ukraine, it says the game doesnt exist in my region... How can I play it on my phone??? thanks a lot
Looks like an interesting spin on digital ccg games I have tried Shadowverse and ESL but found the pvp games were very samey. Would be very interested in trying this but am curious if there are plans for a mobile version as I play Hearthstone on my phone most of the time.
I played a bit of faeria quite a while ago and enjoyed it. I'd definitely recommend card game buffs give it a shot, and I wouldn't mind giving it another chance with some new DLC to play with :).

Just popping in to say that there is no need to report this thread. Thanks :)

I love card games and would love to try out Faeria

Strictly PC? And if so are there plans to eventually go to mobile?
Faeria is a nice game. I played it in the past and I liked it a lot. I don't know how the game is now, gonna try it another time.
Sounds like a fun game, playing Hearthstone since beta and another game next to Hearthstone might be worth a shot!
Well, if I got gift, I'd certainly give it a try :)
Good luck to all in GA. I want to try it too!
Always big fan of hexagon board , reminds me Heroes of M&M . I will try this game today.

I am wondering the same thing. Most of the time I play while I travel. Being able to play a card game at home and on the go is a must for me.
Looks pretty cool. Whats the expansion cycle like and how often are balance changes done?
This game look sick!! Wanna try it one day if i will be able to.keep up with good work. :)
Just one question. How many cards are in the game for now?
I will take my chance with this.
When the weak court death, they find it.
