About this board game
Penny Arcade: The Game – Gamers vs. Evil is a deck-building game for 2–4 players that plays in about 45 minutes. Set in the world of the Penny Arcade web comic, it challenges players to build a perfect deck from a shared pool of cards.
Players select cards representing memorable icons from the Penny Arcade world, with each character bringing a unique power. Use your gold to purchase Gamer cards and add them to your deck—yes, even the Merch belongs in your strategy. Gather the right combination of cards as you prepare for the battle between Gamers and Evil.
If you would rather take the fight directly to your opponents, wield the Cardboard Tube to attack an Evil card. The game offers a range of distinctive encounters and alliances, from dodging PAX Pox and befriending a Werewolf With a Top Hat to joining forces with the Cardboard Tube Samurai.
- Build a personal deck from a communal card pool.
- Spend gold to purchase Gamer cards.
- Use character powers to shape your strategy.
- Attack Evil cards with the Cardboard Tube.
- Engage in PvP and seek epic loot from Dark Tycho.
Whether you focus on collecting powerful cards, using clever abilities, or battling other players, every choice helps shape your ideal deck. Skewer Dark Tycho, face the forces of Evil, and win the battle of Gamers vs. Evil.
Released in 2011, Penny Arcade: The Game – Gamers vs. Evil also integrates with Penny Arcade: The Game – Rumble in R’lyeh, bringing the two Penny Arcade deck-building experiences together.
