Notre Game introduces two games…
“Planet Surprise
Game of universe exploration. You don’t need much to play. Each player has one scratch card of the same series (this means that under a scratch-off layer of certain planets are always hidden the same point values.) Thanks to the simplicity of the components you can play when traveling by train or parachuting.
Players take turns. Player on the move has a choice of several types of actions. The played action is marked by scratching off the top layer (as if scratching eg. scratch ticket, with fingernail or a coin). The game is played in a fixed number of 10 actions. Players have an overview of the number of laps by scratching off the actions.
The most common action is scratching – discovery of a planet. After scratching off the top layer, the player will see the point value of the planet as well as a little graphic joke. At the end of the game the goal is to have scratched planets with the highest point value on your ticket. It seems as a coincidence, but the opposite is true. The game offers actions where you can look into your opponent’s game and see what planets he has scratched and what is worth scratching. You can also command what the opponent must scratch and some actions even dictate you to publicly report what you are scratching off. As a result, you must use
deduction, psychology and tactics to use the right action at the right time. For example, it makes no sense to look into your opponent’s game too soon or too late, simply because it may be too early to find out which planets are worth scratching or it may be too late because you won’t manage to apply the information in time and therefore you won’t be able to scratch off the right planets since there may only be few actions left… It’s exciting, fun and fast and all you need is a fingernail and brain 🙂
Currently we offer 4 different universes with modified planets to explore. In the future, we plan on adding more games to the platform X Surprise.

“Scratch Wars
Very, very unusual collectible card game, which in some modes is closer to board game. The game is set in a fantasy environment. Players have cards of heroes and weapons. A player can start playing with at least two cards, one hero card and one weapon card.
Cards are sold as scratch cards. It has several reasons, one of them is that each hero card is very unique – it has its generated name and value of their abilities. Nobody in the world will have the same card (eg. The Czech edition contains about 2,000,000 different cards). In each country heroes will be named wittily according to national customs…
The player enjoys the surprise until the end when scratching the cards, until the last moment he doesn’t know what stats his hero will have. Despite the breadth, this game is well balanced and even with weaker heroes who are well combined with weapons you can win.
Another great innovation is the mechanical weapon spinner, which lies at the plastic stick (which is also the counter of lives), spin it around and pick the game effect. The focus of the game is selection of weapons, equip the hero and use the weapons in the game. The game is based on strategy and risk management. Players try to use the right weapons at the right time.
The physical version of the game offers many different game modes. You can play duel with one hero equipped with up to 5 weapons, or with a team of heroes or even with the deck – army of heroes. It is also possible to play with more players, teams … The same goes for the phone application.
Each card contains a QR code and can be uploaded into iOS and Android. The application is free and offers countless game options. All characters and weapons are modeled and animated in 3D and unlike in the physical version, magic appears in the game. You can play duel, online tournaments or conquer territory. Each card has a unique ID and therefore players can upload experiences on their cards and acquire spells etc. If you ever decide to exchange or sell the physical card, you can do so in combination with digital versions and with all the progress that is attached to the card in a digital form (eg. three rare spells).
In the future, the game will offer extensions in the form of “trade” cards and “ability” cards. Trading makes the game even more like board game and complex entertainment. Within 4 actions that player has in his turn, the player can either use the weapon to get combat effect or to get money and buy something in the store…
The game will be released in January 2017 in the Czech Republic and we will probably seek resources for its English version on Kickstarter in March / April 2017. Players may try the game in Essen at our stand 4-A116.
