S U R V I V E: THE A.I. is a digital collectible card game set in a futuristic world where Artificial Superintelligence has become a reality. The game's core mechanics are deeply rooted in strategic thinking, much like the concept of "chess next move," where players must anticipate future outcomes and plan accordingly. In this game, each player navigates three distinct locations, each with unique effects, and must control at least two of the three Outer Locations to secure victory. This strategic layer requires players to think several steps ahead, similar to predicting their next move in a chess match. The game features a Resource System, allowing players to earn Compute, Energy, and Creativity resources, which can be used to activate card Awakening abilities. These resources act as the lifeblood of the game, much like how pawns, knights, and bishops are essential in chess. Players must manage their resources effectively, as each decision impacts their ability to execute their next strategic move. Deck building is another critical aspect of the game, where players gather cards from humans, AI, and hybrids to build their team. The game offers five unique Archetypes, each with its own playstyle, requiring players to adapt and evolve their strategies. For example, the "Copy Field" Archetype enhances all cards, rewarding players who plan their moves carefully, while the "AI Race Power" Archetype focuses on overwhelming the opponent with AI cards. The game also features a PVP mode where players can test their strategic prowess against real opponents worldwide. Winning matches not only earns rewards but also climbs the Rank System, where players can achieve better standings and exclusive cosmetics. In PVE mode, players face off against Zero and his five AI ministers, requiring them to adapt their deck to counter each boss's unique mechanics. The storyline of S U R V I V E: THE A.I. is deeply intertwined with the concept of strategic planning. In 2053, a global war between humans and AI left Earth in ruins under the rule of Zero, the most powerful Artificial Superintelligence. The player, as Irene Nova's disciple, must assemble a team of humans, AIs, and hybrids to challenge Zero and his ministers. The "Mind Control" chip, a remnant of Zero, serves as a tool to infiltrate AI and human minds, adding a layer of complexity to the game's strategic depth. The factions in the game, such as the Resistance, Zero's AI forces, and the Cannibals, each represent different strategic approaches. Players must navigate this intricate world, making calculated decisions at every turn to ensure their survival. The game's timeline, from the birth of AGI in 2035 to the devastating Zero Event in 2053, highlights the importance of foresight and planning, much like predicting the next move in a chess game. In essence, S U R V I V E: THE A.I. is a game where every decision is akin to predicting your "chess next move." Whether it's managing resources, building decks, or adapting to opponents, the game challenges players to think critically and strategically in a world dominated by AI.
