Altered is a trading card game (TCG) that was successfully funded on Kickstarter. Earning well over $6 million, it holds the record as the most successful TCG to ever be funded on Kickstarter. And with its pleasing art, innovative spirit, and happy vibes, it is easy to see why. Now game publisher Asmodee Group is making this exceptional Kickstarter available for retail.

Altered is a fantasy trading card game with starter deck and booster options. Altered keeps fast-paced gameplay with turns lasting under a minute and uses a mana system. One unique aspect of this game is that it lets players print on demand. That is, if a card is lost, damaged, or you simply want more, you can order singular cards online and have them printed fresh and delivered to you. It’s a player-friendly system that really showcases Altered as being community-focused.

Centuries ago, our reality collided with the world of stories and dreams in a cataclysm known as the Confluence, an event that profoundly reshaped the Earth as we know it. Beings from this world suddenly roamed amongst us, and changed the way we lived. Since then, we’ve formed alliances with them, and together we patiently rebuilt a new civilization.
With peace and prosperity now secured, it’s finally time for us to rediscover the altered world around us. Six leading Factions have chosen their heroes to lead courageous expeditions beyond the gates, where the Tumult, a remnant of the Confluence of old, still mutates everything in its wake. – Altered website
