S U R V I V E: THE A.I. is a digital collectible card game that reimagines the traditional digital chess board as a dynamic and immersive strategic battleground. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where AI Superintelligence has taken over, the game combines the classic elements of a digital chess board with cutting-edge card-based gameplay. Players must navigate three distinct locations on the digital chess board, each with its own unique effects, and aim to control at least two of the three Outer Locations to secure victory. The digital chess board serves as the core of the game's strategy, where players deploy cards to increase their power and outmaneuver their opponents. Each card has its own strengths and abilities, and players can spend mana to play their cards, with the mana pool increasing by one point each turn. A special Central Location on the digital chess board rewards the leading player with an additional +1 Mana per turn, adding another layer of depth to the gameplay. In addition to card placement and mana management, the digital chess board features a Resource System that allows players to earn Compute, Energy, and Creativity resources. These resources are generated by the locations under the player's control and can be used to activate the Awakening abilities of their cards, further enhancing their strategic options on the digital chess board. Deck building is a critical aspect of mastering the digital chess board. Players can gather cards from humans, AI, and hybrids, each with unique abilities and attributes. The game currently recommends five unique Archetypes: Copy Field, AI Race Power, Powerful Card, Self-Destroy, and Enemy Destroy. These Archetypes provide players with diverse strategies to dominate the digital chess board. The game also features a card rarity system, with cards categorized into Common, Uncommon, Rare, Super Rare (SR), and Special Super Rare (SSR). Players can obtain Awakening Skills by dismantling SR and SSR cards, allowing them to equip these skills on any card. This feature enables players to mix and match skills, creating unique and powerful card combinations tailored to their digital chess board strategy. For competitive players, the game offers a PVP Mode where you can battle real players from around the world on the digital chess board. Winning matches earns you a boost in the Rank System, where you can climb higher and achieve better standings. Each victory rewards you with Gems and Card Shards, which can be used to enhance your gameplay and dominate the digital chess board. The game also includes a PVE Mode where you play as the protagonist, battling against Zero and the Five AI Ministers to uncover the truth. The progression consists of chapters, each containing 6 stages, with the final stage culminating in a boss battle. Completing chapters rewards you with SSR/SR Shards and Gems, while replaying stages offers random Gems and Shards. To succeed, it's essential to adapt your deck to counter the mechanics of each boss, making the digital chess board a true test of strategy and skill. In this futuristic take on the digital chess board, players are immersed in a world of AI Superintelligence, where the line between human and machine is blurred. The game's rich storyline, combined with its deep strategic gameplay, makes it a must-play for fans of digital chess board games and collectible card games alike.
