Puzzle Strike 2

Players acquire magical gems that grant power but also add corruption; accumulating too many gems causes permanent penalties. A single powerful scepter raises strength further while increasing the risk of succumbing to the curse. Play uses a deck-building mechanic where players buy and arrange cards that let them manipulate a personal pool of colored gems. Gems are crashed (discarded) to charge four different super moves or to send additional gems to opponents, creating a flow of gems between players as they manage their corruption level. The scepter confers strong benefits at a steeper corruption cost, forcing choices between immediate power and long-term survivability.
