Hey
So 2016 has been a pretty busy year for us. We released SUPERHOT , then it came out on Xbox, after that SUPERHOT VR came to light. We are not stopping here though. Among many other projects we are also planning to tackle the world of tabletop games. Yep. Tabletop games. Because why not?
With help of our friends from Board&Dice we are working on SUPERHOT THE CARD GAME for which we plan to launch a kickstarter campaign in 2017 .
The game was designed with love of the source material, and with meticulous attention to all the details that make SUPERHOT so amazing. The game will be produced in Poland, using the highest quality materials, and with assistance from tried and true production partners.
Hand crafted micro deckbuilding mechanisms will immerse you in the ever changing, visceral and already iconic fight sequences of SUPERHOT. Every turn and every move is an intense snapshot of lethal combat frozen in motion. Your decisions and your execution dictate the pace of the game. Daredevil maneuvers and risk taking can reward you greatly, or exact harsh punishment.
Every card you play advances the timeline. You shoot a guy’s head off. Enemies pour into the room. A shower of bullets fills the air. The clock is ticking.
CARD GAME MECHANISMS
In this crafty card game, you will face a line of enemies moving your way. Make the most of your hand of cards, taking them out, and using items and elements of your location to your advantage.
In this intense puzzle of moves and plays, a dynamic strategy is the key to survival.
DYNAMIC GAME PLAY
Interact dynamically with a line of enemies. If you take a foe out, their card will go straight into your hand, and you will be able to make use of it next turn. Observe your surroundings, react, and create a set of events that leaves only you standing.
The cards you play hasten or slow down movements of the enemy line. Depending on what cards are in front of you, the pace will change. That’s something you want to keep an eye on, especially when bullets start flying!
STRATEGIC DECISIONS
Your deck and the enemy deck are the heart of the game. The cards cycle between them, and it is up to you to control this movement. Strategically choose the cards you play, as they will end up in the enemy deck, and remember that the cards you go through, end up in yours.
Knowing when and what to play is the key. Learn to manipulate time, create sequences of moves, observe what’s in front of you, and what might appear…
GAME MODES
You can dive into SUPERHOT THE CARD GAME in Single Player Mode the moment you open the box. Scenarios chock-full of lethal puzzles and daredevil risk-taking will give your wits and focus a run for their money. The game will leave you exhilarated every time you prevail, completing a mercilessly difficult action sequence leaving you the last one standing.
Once you’re done, you’re ready to play other modes, to teach your friends, and to spread the system!
Compete with a friend, as one of you takes control of the game system.Will a whole new array of tricks be enough to overwhelm, outsmart and utterly dominate a human opponent?
If you’re not in the mood for tearing your friendship apart with an unhealthy dose of crippling distrust, join forces and cooperate with a friend. Work together every step of the way, as one poor decision will spell disaster for your pyrrhic campaign.
Do you have one more to join in? Then play a three player mixed mode, and feel the deep, dark satisfaction of dominating two opponents at the same time. Three’s a crowd? Destroy them both, or work hand in hand with a mate to take down that sociopathic friend of yours, who would dedicate their time and focus to one thing only: to see you both crash and burn.
We’re having way too much fun testing the game now with the folks from the Board&Dice Team. Everything works pretty damn well, but we want even more, and the moment we have no less than that, we’ll reach out to you again. Remember, it’s only with your help that we’re bringing SUPERHOT THE CARD GAME to Kickstarter.

Blurring the lines between cautious strategy and unbridled mayhem, SUPERHOT is the FPS in which time moves only when you move. No regenerating health bars. No conveniently placed ammo drops. It's just you, outnumbered and outgunned, grabbing the weapons of fallen enemies to shoot, slice, and maneuver through a hurricane of slow-motion bullets.
With its unique, stylized graphics SUPERHOT finally adds something new and disruptive to the FPS genre. SUPERHOT’s polished, minimalist visual language helps you concentrate on the most important - on the fluidity of gameplay and cinematic beauty of the fight.
SUPERHOT features:
- Endless Mode - How long can you last against unyielding waves of enemies?
- Challenge Mode - Take on SUPERHOT with your bare hands, no restarts, timed runs, and more.
- Replay Editor - Edit and upload your best runs for all to see on Killstagram.com
- Extras - Delve further into SUPERHOT with mini-games, ASCII art, and [redacted].
Thirty months in the making. Thousands of hours put into development and design. From its humble origins in the 7 Day FPS game jam, through a hugely successful Kickstarter campaign to a plethora of awards and nominations from industry experts, SUPERHOT is a labor of love by its independant, dedicated team and thousands of backers from all around the globe.
