`When the King is deceased, four will claim the throne, but only the last standing shall rule`

The Four Warlords is a single player card game concept. Right now it's only available as a digital game. The player draws cards and place them in a 3x3 board. At the end of a turn, only one card shall remain. Each of the four types has a condition to be removed (e.g., the Shaman will be removed if there's a card on a diagonal).

There's a detailed "How to Play" page in game. There are default game rules, but you can try other gamemodes and deck size, and it would be nice to receive feedback on how the game works best.

You can play it on browser or by downloading it on Windows. We are thinking about making a physical version when we have time.

This game was made for PIGSquad Tabletop Jam 2021 by me and le millhouse.

This Game Has An Interesting Concept and its good From my point of view I took me Some Tries to beat last Standing with 24 cards but eventually i did beat it But for some reason i cant play Kill all Because the button will just turn Gray and i wont be able to click it.

I interested to see if there will be more of this or something similar.

I give it a 8.5/10 Good Job.

hey, this really took me back. Cant believe it is was 2 years ago!!
it was my first take on a 1player card game and I always wanted to go back and develop it further, maybe this is the push I was needing... although its hard to imagine how much you can actually take of this concept, seeing that every outcome is probably easily solved at any state of the game

anyways, i believe 'kill all' is disabled bceause i didnt have time to finish it for the jam (:

this was very cool! i played on the browser version & i think i liked the default gameplay mode (last man standing) the most.

is there an option to make it full screen? it might just be an issue on my browser, but the text appears very small. (also, this wouldn't be an issue for a print version since you could check a physical instruction manual, but it'd be cool if there was a way to open the "how to play" menu or a quick cheat sheet showing the different warlord types while in-game!)

I think I could enable full screen on frame options here on itch.io, but i believe it would create a blank space rather than stretching the game view, and i believe the downloadable version would have the same problem. I used the default font from godot, but maybe i can upload a bigger one and update the game if that is possible for the jam.

and about the instructions, that is a very nice tip actually, i didn't even think of that but it makes so much sense. maybe we could add a pause menu in-game. the cards actually have an icon kind of showing its positions, but its good to have more accurate instructions accessible.

thanks for playing and for the feedback, I'm glad you liked
