My basketball card game

Hey, all!

Just wanted to share… I know I had mentioned this here before, but I’ve finally put the finishing touches on my basketball card game, Hardwood Duel!

Been to a bunch of conventions, hosted huge tests… and I’m happy to say that 100+ testers later, and 700 or 800 games later, it has held up SO well!
Incredibly quick to learn… everyone gets it in the first hand… and quick to play… a Pick Up or College game takes only 10-12 minutes, start to finish. And everyone who plays it enjoys it; basketball fans love it, gamers love it… my kids love it, their friends love it, and my own friends love it.

So thought I would share! Going to Gen Con this week to meet with a few people to discuss production and distribution, and hopefully it will be available in the not too distant future!

If you’re thinking about expanding the game, you might want to look at how sports card box breaks keep things exciting with random pulls and rare finds. Maybe introducing a similar element where players get surprises or limited-edition cards could add another layer of fun. A mix of strategy and chance could keep players engaged while also making each session different. Just an idea based on what keeps collectors coming back.
