Artifact

released on Nov 28, 2018
by Valve

A collaboration between legendary card game designer Richard Garfield and Valve, Artifact Classic is a digital card game that combines deeply strategic, competitive gameplay with the rich setting of Dota 2. The result is an immersive and visually stunning trading card game unlike any other. Wield your deck across three lanes of combat, answer every move of your opponent with one of your own. Unlimited hand size. Unlimited number of units you control. Unlimited mana you can employ. Artifact Classic is free to play! Furthermore, all cards are now available to all players. If you paid for the original Artifact, your cards are promoted to Collector's Edition cards. Paid game event tickets have also been phased out.

Dead Game, it's pity, I somewhat liked it, when it launched.

Valve really missed the mark on this one. Artifact had an eager player base and a giant company to back its game, but it completely flopped. Needed to be play tested and worked on more prior to release. Lack of interesting card design, poor visuals, and greedy monetization drove this game into the ground. I would have loved for this game to be a slam dunk, but unfortunately I am stuck reminiscing on what could have been.

The worst game I have ever played. People like to say it was the ''monetization''... but the game is completely free now and still nobody wants to touch this junk.

Best card game with worst monetization ever.

I tried this game but I don't remember a second of it. It was so forgettable that I don't even remember what it looked like.

I wanted a new valve game instead of a lame Dota 2 Card game
