About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a nostalgic showdown with Porradaria, a card game that teleports you straight to the arcades of the 80s and 90s! Here, you choose a character with unique abilities and go head-to-head against opponents using a strategic combination of weapons, attack cards, and even the battlefield to your advantage. The goal is simple: be the last warrior standing, eliminating everyone else in a brawl.

The game uses two decks, each featuring five characters. If you have a smaller group, say 2 to 5 players, one deck is enough. But if the energy is high and you have up to 10 players, just combine both decks and the chaos intensifies! Each round, you draw cards, assemble your attack combo – thinking about the right weapon, special moves, and the most favorable scenario – and activate your character's abilities to take down the competition.

The rules are quite straightforward: each player picks their character, gathers their cards, and devises a strategy. Choose your target wisely, build your attack, and try to survive. Whoever loses all their cards is out, and the last warrior to win 3 battles is crowned the champion. It's a fast-paced game with plenty of interaction and that 'take that' feel we all love. Perfect for those who enjoy fighting games with a lighter, fun twist, and for anyone who isn't afraid to send their friends to 'game over'.
