Imagine you are a mortal girl who suddenly finds herself caught in the middle of an epic conflict between two powerful factions: the radiant light of the Court of Glimmer and the mysterious shadows of the Court of Gloam. Your goal is crystal clear, but it's far from easy: you must build the most powerful Faerie Court to secure your victory. This is a super agile strategic card duel, perfect for those looking for a quick game with a touch of tension. The mechanics are straightforward: on each turn, you basically draw a card and manage your hand to play another. Sounds simple, right? But that's where the real challenge lies! You'll need to use the special abilities of characters and magical artifacts to create strategic advantages and try to outsmart your opponent. The real standout here is the hand management and the attention to detail. The game flows dynamically until the shared deck runs out. Once that happens, there's a twist: everyone reveals their hands and starts scoring based on specific objectives. Whoever manages to score the most points from these objectives will be the ultimate winner of the Court. It's a fast-paced strategy game with an enchanting fantasy theme, ideal for those who love a card duel that doesn't take all night but requires careful thought to avoid being swallowed by the shadows! ## FAQ ### How long does a game last?
