Coldshuffle

Coldshuffle is a cozy winter card game set on the frozen lakes of Frostmere. It's
a one-on-one ice-fishing card duel: build a small deck, read the weather, and
out-fish a rival angler hole by hole. Every match is a quiet, quick puzzle of
lures, bait and patience — no timers pressuring you, no account to make, and no
ads or internet required. If you like tidy little strategy games you can finish in
a few minutes, pull up a stool on the ice.

Each duel plays out over ten turns on a shared lake of six ice holes — three
yours, three your rival's. On your turn you spend Warmth to play cards that shape
what happens under the ice: lures raise the odds a fish bites your hole, bait
decides which fish it draws, weather cards tilt the whole lake for or against you,
gear gives lasting perks, and tricks freeze a rival's hole or steal a catch
outright. Fish surface, sometimes bite, and the angler with the higher catch score
when the tenth turn ends takes the match. Win and you earn coins and, from many
rivals, a brand-new card for your collection.

KEY FEATURES
✓ Deck-building — assemble a fifteen-card deck from lures, bait, weather, gear,
tricks and a legendary card, each with its own rarity and cost.
✓ Campaign across three regions — journey from the Pine Backwater through the
Crystal Fjord to the Throne of the Ice King, unlocking each as you win.
✓ Seven hand-drawn rivals — every angler has a portrait, a title, their own deck
and a line of dialogue before the match.
✓ Daily Challenge — one seeded match a day against a rotating challenger.
✓ Field Codex — catch each of the eight fish to reveal its art, lore, habitat and
the number of times you've landed it.
✓ Achievements — earn milestones for your first win, five wins, ten catches, a
legendary fish and clearing all of Frostmere.
✓ Three difficulty levels — tune the rival AI from Easy to Hard, plus a haptics
toggle.
✓ Fully offline — the whole game lives on your device. No sign-in, no ads, no
in-app purchases.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Build your deck in the Deck tab, or start with the ready-made starter.
2. Pick a rival on the Frostmere map and read their opening line.
3. Drag cards onto your holes to bait and lure, then end your turn and watch the
fish decide.
4. Land more fish than your rival over ten turns to win coins and a new card, then
push north toward the Ice King.

WHY COLDSHUFFLE
It's made to be calm and self-contained: a handcrafted, snow-dusted board, matches
that fit in a coffee break, and just enough strategy in the lure-bait-weather
interplay to keep every duel different. There's no meta-game nagging you to come
back, no energy bar, no store. You own the whole game the moment you install it.

PRIVACY
