Alice Card Episode: A Balatro-Inspired Wonderland Adventure

Given that Mafgames typically focuses on mobile games featuring adorable cats and fat hamsters, their venture into a card-based Balatro-esque deck-builder might come as a surprise. Yet, that's precisely what ACE: Alice Card Episode promises to be. This upcoming game joins the growing trend of Balatro-inspired titles, boldly claiming that players won't be able to do anything else once they start playing. The developers even humorously warn players to "not make any plans before playing this game," adding a charming touch to the anticipation.

The Alice in Wonderland-themed premise of ACE: Alice Card Episode adds an intriguing layer to the game. Players find themselves sucked into grandma's pocket watch and thrust into Wonderland, tasked with defeating the main villain. To achieve this, players must build and refine their deck, focusing on dealing burst damage with strategically chosen cards.

As you progress through the game, defeating card soldiers along your noble quest, you'll earn coins. These can be used to purchase and upgrade from a vast selection of 130 unique Jokers, each offering distinct skills. The integration of the "Joker" concept into this Carroll-esque theme is particularly fascinating and adds depth to the gameplay.
