He doesn’t play solitaire to use his abilities, he simply waits for you to finish your card streak and then attacks. Once you cast a spell, the pool of the resource type you used is depleted. The first 4 resources are used within the level to power up your spells. There are 5 different resource types – attack, defence, agility, willpower, and gold. So how does a game like this work? Well, each card has a resource type, and as you pick that card up you acquire that resource.

I mean, who wants to play solitaire with some spells in it? Err – me, as it turns out… because this game is very, very good… My first victim… mwahahahaha! The basics OK, let’s just state the obvious – the concept of this game sounds a little peculiar.
