Nothing out here is free

Revival began as somebody else's game. The studio behind it shut its servers down and the game simply stopped existing, the way a game with no servers does, taking every collection and every match history with it.

We recovered it from a shipped build, repointed the client at a backend of our own, replaced the art, the words and the world, and put it back online. The engine underneath is the original's and it is deliberately untouched.

So the rules a returning player remembers are the rules. What changed is everything above them: the setting is now North American folklore rather than high fantasy, the cards are ours, and it is free.

Quick Match

Ranked, matched against another player, one deck each.

Campaign

Three campaigns of authored stages, each paying out cards you keep.

Duels

A private room and a code. Play a friend, no stakes.

Practice

Against a bot, at three difficulties, plus puzzles and one-rule matches.

Every account starts with the same four starter decks. There is no founder's chest, nothing to buy at the start and no way to skip ahead.

Cards are WON. Clear a campaign stage and it pays a card; the card is then yours to mint as an NFT you hold in your own wallet, list on a marketplace, or take back into the next match.

Two collections, two kinds of scarcity. Campaign cards are capped at mint and stay winnable. Longhunter cards are capped at the WIN, and when they are gone they are gone.

The setting is a collision rather than a single tradition: Quebecois, Appalachian, Polish, Pennsylvania Dutch, Southwestern and Native strands meeting in one cold North American night. It is deliberately not a western, and deliberately not high fantasy.
