Constructing your deck sets the stage, but directing your cards during combat demands sharp decision-making. In battle, your cards become active units and ship components that you strategically deploy on two battling vessels. Since playing cards and commanding your crew use the same scarce command points, you constantly weigh how best to allocate them.
As you upgrade your ship’s structure, you influence key attributes such as its durability, command capacity, and energy reserves. You’ll find new ships and enhancements in singleplayer runs, expanding your tactical options and allowing for diverse playstyles. When facing other players, you pick from the full roster of ships you’ve unlocked, mixing your deck and ship choices for maximum impact.
Hundreds of cards, each with their own special traits, let you craft decks bursting with synergy and surprise. Singleplayer begins with curated decks, but the real fun comes from building your own combos as you gather new cards. PvP and custom battles unlock all your collected cards, offering deep deckbuilding possibilities against human or AI opponents.
Traveling through the roguelike campaign rewards you with new cards taken from opponents, which stay unlocked for future battles. With cards permanently unlocked, you can continuously refine your decks for PvP or solo skirmishes alike.
Built to support mods and community creations, Star Scum offers endless potential for new ways to play. Community creativity is at the heart of Star Scum’s future, with mod support enabling fresh strategies and gameplay styles.
From high-stakes PvP battles to gripping singleplayer runs, Star Scum demands sharp tactics and smart deckbuilding to prevail. Lead your crew and cards into battle, making split-second decisions that will determine your fate in this dynamic, ever-changing game.
