Interesting! I wonder if there's a significant distinction in player enjoyment of RNG in watching someone else play vs. playing themselves?

Thanks! The third line is tough lol.
I want to convey something like, "even when it seems like bad things are happening and you've done something you regret and you want to take it back but you can't, keep going, you'll see what happens," but it's hard to get all that succinctly and not be cheesy 😆

LOTS of level-up moments for players with this card too: realizing they can give a new ability to a card that has exhausted/lost one, realizing they can use it offensively against broken abilities, realizing it can snipe certain cards, etc.
Even though it's "random" there's lots of agency with it!

But then later, players get two "level up" moments with Spikyball!
First, when they realize they can overwrite its bad ability with a good one. Then it's way better than Hellfang!
Second, when they realize that sometimes it can be beneficial to have a bad ability if the enemy steals it, hehe.

What about a card game where 5th graders argue on the playground over Capitalism/society/human existence? XD store.steampowered.com/app/3087810/...
Recesses on Steam
It's recess. Time to play cards, find your missing friend, discover the meaning of life. The usual 5th grade playground stuff.
