Hardback — Price & soundtrack

Hey board game fans! If you enjoy forming words and building a card deck that leads you to glory, Hardback is the right choice. Imagine this: you're a 19th-century writer, trying to make your next masterpiece a hit and, of course, earn some prestige points. The goal is straightforward: be the first to reach 60 fame points, and to do that, you'll build a deck with letters that have special powers. The cool part is that any card can act as a 'wildcard,' which offers awesome flexibility!

The game encourages you to be bold with the 'ink' system, letting you risk drawing more cards – but be careful not to get tangled up and unable to form any words! Matching the genre colors of the cards gives you an extra boost, and there are some 'timeless classic' cards that stay in play until someone uses them.

For those who love to compete, the classic mode for 2 to 5 players is pure adrenaline. But if your group prefers to team up, there's a cooperative mode for 1 to 4 players where you face a simulated 'villain.' Oh, and for solo players, the game also includes rules for a solo mode. Hardback is a card game with deck-building and a word focus, perfect for those who aren't afraid of a good challenge and love a sharp vocabulary. It's a game that heavily relies on language, so you know what that means – time to brush up on your English!
