About the game
Forget everything you know about collectible card games. In Varia, there aren't any minions to protect you or walls to hide behind. You raise the shield. You cast the spell. You swing for the win with your weapon of choice. If you want to stay ten steps ahead of your foes, you’ll have to unravel their minds yourself... Deck Difficulty: 3 out of 5 - Intermediate Level —description from the publisher
