-Arcomage is a card-based heroic fantasy based on a game found in Might & Magic VII for the PC. This is an excellent remake of the classical card game in Might & Magic VII (playable in the Taverns of the PC game). It was ranked third in the Neoflash Summer Coding Competition.
+This is an adaption of the Acromage card game on the DS. Arcomage is a Heroic Fantasy type card game, which made its first appearance in the PC role-playing game Might & Magic VII, as a side game/quest that was played in the various taverns of the game. Subsequently, 3DO and Ubi Soft made it a full-fledged PC game, in the form of Shareware.
-==Objectives==
+It was ranked 3rd in the [https://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php?topic=3005.0 NEO Summer Coding Compo 2006].
-Each player has a deck of cards and holds a tower and a wall, which they can upgrade or attack using cards.
-There are also three different resources: beasts, bricks and gems. Each resource is needed for a specific type of cards and increases every round, depending on a modifier.
-The goal is either to achieve a specific limit of resources, tower or wall or to completely destroy the opponent’s wall and tower.
-==How to play==
+==User guide==
 There are several online guides for Arcomage if you are lost, but since the DS version is slightly different, here’s how to play:
+* You start, you and your enemy, with a Castle of a certain Height and a Wall, protecting it.
+* Your goal is to destroy enemy's Castle before he destroy yours, or reach a value of 100 for your Castle.
-You lay out each one, you and your enemy, of a castle and a floor protecting it, all two of a certain size.
+For this you've got 3 types of resources, each grows according to resources generators you own:
+* Temple - Mana.
+* Quarries - Stone.
+* Gold Mines - Gold.
-Your goal is either to destroy the enemy castle, or to assemble your castle to the maximum size of 100.
+For example, if you own 2 Temples, 3 Quarries and 1 Gold Mine, you'll get 2 Mana, 3 Stones and 1 Gold each turn.
-For that you have resources (Mana, Pierres, Or), which increase with each turn according to the number of generators (Temples, Carrires, Gold mines) that you have.
+To reach your goal, you've got a hand of 6 cards, which have different effects. Each card need a certain amount of resources to be played:
+* If you have enough resources, play your chosen card (or select the cart with the stylus and tap on it to play it). Otherwise, the card can't be played.
+* If you can't play a card or don't want a card, you can discard it.
+* Once you've played a card (or discarded it), it's computer turn.
+* After each turn, you get a new card to play.
-With the beginning of the turn you have a hand of 6 cards with the various effects, which require each one a certain number of resources to be played.
+And so on, until you win, or lose?
-If you have enough resources to play it, place your cursor above and press A. If on the contrary you wish discard a card, press X.
+==Controls==
+Stylus or A - Play selected card
-In each case, your turn is played and comes that from the computer.
+X - Discard card
-After its turn, you recover a new chart and your resources are increased according to your generators.
-And so on until the victory… or the defeat?
