Luminous is a 2 player collectable card game with tradeable cosmetic elements designed for ages 14+. The game takes approximately 10 minutes to learn and 20-40 minutes to play. Players purchase “faction” decks, which contain a complete set of cards to deckbuild with, allowing them to be competitive right out of the gate without the need for randomized pack hunting. Play orbs to cast spells, relics, and units from your hand to reduce your opponent's life to 0. Sequencing and careful decision making is important to make sure you aren't overwhelmed by your opponent. -description from the designer
