EXCLUSIVE Early Access AVAILABLE for all to try NOW, until the 5th of FEBRUARY 2024!
There is 6 Decks available for you to discover this all-new upcoming TCG with an innovative gameplay.

What is it ?
Altered offers a new, refreshing approach to both competitive and casual players. Set in a universe of rich lore and visual design (influenced by Miyazaki's work and Dixit-like illustrations), this game is about exploring a new, reshaped Earth after a mysterious event, the Confluence, profoundly altered it.

Shape your own adventure, choose a faction and lead your expeditions through an ever-changing world. Be the first to discover what the universe of Altered has in store for you!

What really lies at the heart of this revolution is a ton of expertly tailored details — a new rarity system, deep evolving lore, innovative game mechanisms and design — and a phygital experience that comes along with its myriad of life-quality improvements, both for the players, tournaments organizers and store owners alike.

Born and led from the mind of talented game designer Régis Bonnessée (founder of the Libellud studio, which published Dixit, Mysterium, Dice Forge, and Seasons), this project is brought to you by the French studio Equinox, based in Paris, in partnership with and exclusively distributed by Asmodee.

Discover it right now from your browser, tablet or computer, by clicking below:

Will there be any kind of online version available of the actual released game? I'd rather not get into this game for the demo if not, I will hate to fall in love and then not really be able to play. (I just don't have time for real-life play these days.)

I appreciated the chance to try the game but seeing that there are rare variants of cards that are just strictly better versions makes it clear that this game is not something i'm going to back on kickstarter.

You should take a look at the deckbuilding rules. The use of rares and uniques is limited, your deck needs to consist mostly of common cards, so it's very easy to get a competitive deck.

I gave it a try, and one glaring issue I immediately struggled with was the different rarity cards. I like different cards being visually distinct, I do not want to read the same card through every time to check if it has a single digit or symbol different. It's a very confusing design choice.

I am also curious if this is something that will be released online as well especially with the new idea of owning digital rights to cards I would think this would make sense.

Also do you intend to enable turn based within the demo period. I would enjoy playing the game and being able to read over the cards and look into the art more without someone chatting me to take my turn already 🙄
