Overview

Cross The Ages is a radical new approach to the card game genre. Seven books by 13 authors, many of whom have won awards for their work, define the universe. It describes a world inhabited by three distinct populations: the Arkhante, the Mantris, and the people from the Rift.

Cross The Ages novels will be made available for free over the course of several years. The game's mechanics will evolve in accordance with the lore. The first novel has been published and is available at crosstheages.com, and a new chapter of the second is being made available every week. The 365 digital cards that accompany each Cross The Ages book come in varied degrees of rarity.

The game drops the traditional half-board for each player and replacing it with 4x4 tile board. Outside of the game, Cross The Ages is building a full IP with deep lore behind each character. Cross The Ages makes it possible to collect digital cards with capability for physical activation. 

With digital NFT ownership, players can track ownership history and collect Cross The Ages cards without risk of damage or theft. Cross The Ages will allow players to convert their NFT into a real-world off-chain asset. Another benefit of Cross The Ages is that your assets and currencies can be used in other games that the developer plans to make in the future. Increasing its worth over time. Two additional games have been announced by the project management for later in 2024 and 2025.

Gameplay & Game Modes

Cross The Ages takes in a lot of inspiration from Legends of Runeterran and Hearthstone, two of the most prominently known names in the traditional gaming card genre, while adding their own twist to the gameplay design. Players face off in intense turn-based duels, with each match lasting an average of 5 minutes. The objective is to create the best strategy to conquer and get the most points within the battle arena.

The action in Cross The Ages is constantly shifting and evolving. In the heat of combat, you and your opponent will do anything to get control of as many battle cards as possible. The core of the game is based on the affinity or trinity of the player's deck of battle cards, as well as the cards' powers and elements (called Arkhome). When a duel begins, both players attempt to take control of the board by capturing combat cards. Whoever reaches the goal points first, or has the highest total when the board is full, wins.

You will win if you capture as many of your opponent's cards as possible and use them to form as many affinities and trinities as possible.

You get two points for every card you flip over. Every time that you maintain control of a trinity (a sequence of three elements according to the heptagram), you score three points (one for each card in the trinity). To succeed at Cross The Ages, you'll need to master a number of concepts. These include board mechanics, card usage, and capture strategies.

The team over at Cross The Ages are as passionate as they come, with hardcore Magic: The Gathering players spread across all their departments. This ties in with the NFC and physical card iterations of the game's library as the main goal is to bridge the gap between web3 gaming and physical products.In ranked mode, you can climb the ladder and unlock Affixes at different levels. Affixes are random parameters adding dynamism and excitement to Cross The Ages games!

At the highest competitive levels, up to two affixes can be active in a single game, and their effects are variable: from increasing or decreasing the final score, to adding field effects randomely for specific turns, to the shift of the heptagram for the whole game. Affixes will test your capacity to stay the top player!

Game Modes

Cross The Ages offers many game modes: RANKED for the competition where you can challenge players from all over the world and NORMAL to fine-tune your deck and strategy. Whether you're a beginner or advanced player, you will find your place!

When playing Cross The Ages in Ranked mode, you are right in the thick of things. You will be severely punished for even the smallest infraction, but the ultimate prize is triumph. The higher you finish each week in the rankings, the more points you will receive at the end of the season. Rewards will be given out at the end of the era based on your total point balance. Winners receive special rewards, including bundles of Trisel and Prana as well as card chests and even rare cards. Then why are you still on the sidelines?

You should not worry about falling in the rankings. The best way to try out new decks and strategies with friends is in the Custom mode. You can alter the settings to suit your preferences. You can set any parameters you choose, such as the required point total, the time restriction, the Arkhomes benefits, the affixes, etc.That's the spot to host your own tournaments and competitions with your pals!

Cards: Types and Rarities

There are two main types of cards in Cross The Ages; Battle and Field cards. The former is the backbone of the game since they are what you will consistently to attack and defend your board.

On the other hand, Field cards are special cards that allow you to change the element of the board and boost all cards of the same element.

There is 8 different rarities of cards you can get out packs and they are as follows:

  1. Common
  2. Uncommon
  3. Rare
  4. Special Rare
  5. Ultra Rare
  6. Mythic
  7. Exclusive
  8. Unique

Rarities from Common to Special Rare are attainable to players who put in the time towards climbing the ranked ladder and playing Cross The Ages regularly. Ultra Rare and Mythic however are a bit more difficult to obtain since they are only available inside Apprentice, Disciple, and Primus packs.

As for Exclusive and Unique cards, these are split between airdrops, investors' exclusive, and redeemable codes found in physical Cross The Ages merchandise. Both of them only differ in artwork and have the same characteristics as Standard cards. Unique cards live up to their name though since only one model ever in-game and the studio is keeping it under wraps for now on how to get any of them so you will have to dig up some information and be the first to claim a Unique card.
