SURVIVE: THE A.I. is a digital collectible card game that emphasizes strategic deck-building through DIY deck plans. Players can gather cards from humans, AIs, and hybrids, each with unique abilities and traits, and build their team with different Archetype strategies. Whether you prefer the Copy Field Archetype, which boosts all cards' power, or the AI Race Power Archetype, which enhances AI tribe cards, the game offers countless possibilities for DIY deck plans. With DIY deck plans, players can mix and match Awakening Skills by dismantling SR and SSR cards, allowing these skills to be equipped on any card. This feature enables players to create unique and powerful card combinations, ensuring no two decks are alike. Cards can be acquired through various methods, including drawing cards, shard crafting, and purchasing shop bundles, giving players flexibility in building their DIY deck plans. In PVP Mode, players can test their DIY deck plans against real opponents from around the world, earning Gems and Card Shards to further enhance their decks. Meanwhile, in PVE Mode, players must adapt their DIY deck plans to counter the mechanics of each boss, such as using energy-heavy HAI cards when facing AI opponents. The game also features a Resource System, where players earn Compute, Energy, and Creativity resources from controlled Locations, which can be used to activate a card's Awakening ability. DIY deck plans are at the heart of SURVIVE: THE A.I., offering a deep and engaging experience for players who enjoy strategic deck-building and customization. Whether you're a casual player or a competitive strategist, the game provides the tools to craft your perfect deck and shape the future of this post-apocalyptic world.
