I got a key to the Basic Edition. What happens if I have an existing account or already own it?

What will I have to pay?

You can play Card Hunter for free. However, if you wish, you can buy some stuff with real money. You can subscribe to become a member of the Card Hunter Club. This boosts your loot drops. You can buy treasure chests that contain loot and you can purchase costumes for your characters. You can also buy some Treasure Hunt adventures which give you an epic quality item if you complete them.

Aren’t free to play games just designed to make you have to pay to win?

Some free to play games are designed that way, but our model is that we want to provide you a great free experience with the option of purchasing stuff if you like the game and want to enhance your experience. We are striving hard to make sure the game isn’t “pay to win”. With the exception of the Treasure Hunts and the costumes, you can access everything else in the game for free.

Where can I get more information on the actual game?

Read what the press are saying about Card Hunter here Press. We have also written a series of developer diaries as part of the blog that contains a lot more information.

What role did Richard Garfield and Skaff Elias play in development?

Richard and Skaff worked as design consultants on the game. They’re helped us make sure this is a truly great collectible card game.
