Short description

One honest purchase unlocks everything. No ads, no microtransactions.
Long description
Nova Clash is a fleet-battle card game. Each match is a 5–10 minute tactical duel: you and an opponent each field a fleet of starship cards on a shared board, spend energy each turn to deploy ships and play tactics, and win by destroying the enemy Command Ship. Ships follow an "attack OR act" rule — a ship can strike the enemy or use a special ability, never both — so every turn is a real decision.
Six playable factions each bring a distinct identity, from disciplined Nova fleet planning to Hollow deck-corruption and time manipulation. Advanced mechanics go far beyond "attack and boost": salvage destroyed ships, plunder the enemy's graveyard, sacrifice ships for value, mill decks, and corrupt. You are the commander — equip once-per-match Active Orders, refit individual ships in the Shipyard, and assign named Ace pilots for signature powers. A fully authored branching campaign, roguelike tournament ladders, repeatable patrols, and local multiplayer round out the package.
