Meet Catastrophe Director

The Director plays with cards: a 15-card deck, fusions that level up and 56 combinations with their own artwork. Three modes, mutations and upgrades every match, and Ranked.

FISSURE
LAVA
SPLASH
BLAST
ZOMBIES

The Director can't throw everything at once: their hand and the draw timer hold them back, and every card is a decision. The survivors pick their items, read every warning and revive one another.

The game is in development: the numbers will be fine-tuned through play.
