Field notes
The rulebook spells out a side-by-side number comparison: a higher touching value flips the opponent’s card, while ties usually do nothing, with an Equalizer exception and an optional Classic Mode setting. Players can save up to ten decks per grid size, and the page describes both draft matches and a league with three named opponents. The site identifies itself as version 0.64 Alpha and cautions that cards and rules may change.
