For the game’s history, please refer to Descry: Card Game.
Each game consists of three rounds. In order to win the game, you must win two of the three rounds. If a round results in a draw, the round is replayed.
Each round, both players make a contested intelligence check. Whoever rolls higher will win the round. Each deck can impose an additional +2 or -2 modifier on the intelligence check depending on the matchup. Each deck has two good, one neutral and two bad matchups. Mirror matchups, where both players are playing the same deck, grant no bonuses to either player.
Proficiency in Cards allows you to add your proficiency modifier to any rolls made in Descry.
Many players across Eos hold rare, unique cards. For every three rare cards held, the player gains an +1 bonus to any rolls made while playing Descry, stacking infinitely.
