These resources often comes from the moons around planets and other celestial bodies. From the Inexperienced to the Extreme Farmer, each of them have their own stats and skills!</p> <h1>Rules</h1> <p><strong>The main objective is to collect 42 moons</strong>. The first player to do so wins the game.</p> <p>There are two types of cards: Farmer cards and Events cards. Farmer cards are differentiated from Event cards by their Harvesting Power (HP hereafter), which is printed at the bottom center of the card:</p> <p><a href="https://preview.redd.it/jsmnzo3mewta1.png?width=7442&format=png&auto=webp&s=e208794efcb691612e569342309c2fbb15bb0af3">https://preview.redd.it/jsmnzo3mewta1.png?width=7442&format=png&auto=webp&s=e208794efcb691612e569342309c2fbb15bb0af3</a></p> <ol> <li>Event cards are played, their effect takes place and then the cards are put in the discard pile. Example: Upfarm is a card that lets a player add 1 moon to their RP. The player plays it, adds that moon and discards Upfarm to the discard pile. </li> <li>Each player starts the game with a deck with a number of cards between 27 and 30, and with 15 moons on their Resource Pool (RP). </li> <li>Only three copies of the same card can be on the deck, with two exceptions: Nano, The Big One, and Ito, Horizon Breacher. Players can only have one of these on their decks. </li> <li>Players can play a maximum of three cards per turn. </li> <li>There are no costs to play a card, unless the card states otherwise. </li> <li>The game automatically ends when a player reaches 42 moons on their RP.</li> <li>If a player can't draw cards anymore, this player loses the game.</li> </ol> <p>The phases of the game are:</p> <ol> <li>Draw phase, where the player draws 2 cards from their decks;</li> <li>Farming phase, where players play Farmers and Event cards.</li> </ol> <h1>Installing Cockatrice and uploading the card database</h1> <p>I used Cockatrice, which is a platform originally made for playing Magic: The Gathering. I created the .xml card database to be used by the software. To install and play:</p> <ol> <li>Go to <a href="https://cockatrice.github.io/">https://cockatrice.github.io/</a> and download the software, installing it afterwards;</li> <li>Create an account. Go Cockatrice (in the main tab) and click on Register to server. Put your desired username and email and leave the other fields unchanged;</li> <li>Click Cockatrice > Connect. You should now be connected on the server;</li> <li>Download the card_database.xml file from here: <a href="https://github.com/MoonfarmerTCG/Game/blob/main/card_database.xml">https://github.com/MoonfarmerTCG/Game/blob/main/card_database.xml</a>;</li> <li>Click Card Database on the tab and go to Add custom sets/cards;</li> <li>Select the card_database.xml file you've downloaded.</li> </ol> <h1>Building your deck</h1> <p>That's it. You have your account, are connected and have the cards ready. Time to build your deck!</p> <ol> <li>Click Deck Editor and select Create New;</li> <li>Navigate to the cards you want and add them to the deck. Be aware no more than 3 of the same cards are allowed, and you can only have one copy of Ito and Nano!</li> <li>Save the deck.</li> </ol> <p>That's it! Let's now create a game and wait for friends to join us.</p> <h1>Playing the game</h1> <ol> <li>Go to Server and select Other games. Click join;</li> <li>Click on Create and set the details of your game, like e.g. password, room name and such;</li> <li>Give the details to your friend, who should have done all the steps above to create their deck etc.</li> </ol> <p>You can now start playing!</p> <h1>Seeing the effect of the card</h1> <p>When you click over a card, Cockatrice will show it's text/effects:</p> <p><a href="https://preview.redd.it/9cdh0kvyewta1.png?width=2389&format=png&auto=webp&s=36c222701e88c004160431432028cfc3fb0bb5b7">https://preview.redd.it/9cdh0kvyewta1.png?width=2389&format=png&auto=webp&s=36c222701e88c004160431432028cfc3fb0bb5b7</a></p> <h1>Communicating with your friends during the game</h1> <p>Cockatrice has a chat function, but it only supports text.
