"Herdz is a fun, fast-paced card game where players build powerful dinosaur herds, strategically fend off rival players, and survive devastating prehistoric natural disasters."
Lead Your Prehistoric Herd
The stakes are high: only the strongest will survive the Cretaceous Period. Recruit diverse dinosaur cards—from towering herbivores to fearsome carnivores—to build the dominant herd. Each turn is a frantic balance of resource management, territorial defense, and aggressive raiding.
Every dinosaur card has unique strengths and weaknesses that force you to constantly adapt your strategy to the ever-changing landscape of your rivals' decks.
Survive the Natural Selection
The world is constantly trying to destroy your herd. Master these fundamental actions to ensure your lineage survives:
- Diversify Your Herd - Hatch different dino's to keep your Herd well-rounded.
- Unleash Devastating Attacks - Decimate rival herds, crippling their defenses and stealing resources.
- Play Defenses - Fortify your territory against both player attacks and sudden environmental threats.
- Trigger Disasters - unleash devastating natural events, such as Volcanoes, Floods, or Meteorites!
- Different Game Styles - Play one-on-one duels, every herd for themselves or team herd domination.
- Be the last Herd to avoid extinction!
Family Fun, Fierce Strategy
Herdz is designed to be accessible to players of all ages while offering deep strategic depth for seasoned gamers. Turns are quick, rules are simple to learn, but the tactical decisions—like when to play a Flooding card or which dinosaur to sacrifice to a rival—are endlessly engaging. It’s a game of fast decisions, high tension, and chaotic, prehistoric fun.
Victory: Be the Last Herd Standing
The goal is simple, but the path is treacherous. To win the game, you must be the last player on the table with an **active herd of dinosaurs**. Use your resources wisely, manage your carnivores and herbivores, and ruthlessly exploit your rival's vulnerabilities to claim dominance over the prehistoric world.
⚠️ Still in Active Development
Herdz is currently undergoing extensive playtesting and refinement. The core system is finalized, but we are continually testing and improving card balance, art, and overall player experience. New dinosaur cards and advanced rules are planned!
