From BoardGameGeek

A quick and snappy dueling game for 2 players focusing on wit, timing, and misdirection all wrapped in a fantasy rpg theme. Players will have a a hand of 6 cards. Each turn, both player's will secretly choose a card from their hands to play and reveal/resolve them simultaneously. These cards have a variety of effects, but generally will either be dealing damage, blocking damage, or healing HP. Players start with 10 HP and the goal is reduce your opponent to 0. After each card is played, it waits for three turns in a "Queue" before it returns to its owner's hand. Players will also know at all times every card in their opponents hand. So they must choose what card they think will counter their opponent the most. -description from the designer
