Showdown: Icons*

A fast-paced card duel pits two players against each other in a battle for victory. Each deck in the game can be played against any other deck.

Players secretly choose a feint card and then a strike card. The strike cards are revealed and combined with the feint card's value. Typically, the highest sum wins, but if both strike cards share the same discipline, the player with the lowest sum wins instead. This adds a strong bluffing element, where reading the opponent's moves can provide an advantage. The game ends when a player has taken enough damage to flip all their aces. It features tough and seasoned characters from the world of Icons, including the King of Clubs and the Queen of Hearts, and comes with five plastic card decks.
