Fair trade is not about equality, it is when both sides are satisfied.

Gather various pieces of art for your collection by trading with other collectors.
Present your collection to them in a right way to get the most value out of it.
Make you collection bigger and bigger to be able to buy the rare ancient items when they appear in stock. Gather all 3 rare items to finish your collection and win the game!

Controls: mouse

How to play (there is full tutorial in the game, but you can read this if you want):

Select a group of cards to sell. All cards have base cost and some have effects that will increase cards total cost. You can sell only one group of cards per shop. Press "sell" button to confirm. After you sell items you can buy new cards from the shop. Your objective is to obtain more and more powerful cards. All remaining money will disappear after you leave the shop.
(lore-wise there is no money in the game world, this is just an imaginary counter of the value.)

After you exit shop you can choose one of 2 next shops. Door color represents location (which affects what cards are sold) and also you can see a modifier above each door. This modifier allows you to gain more value when selling your items.

After 5 normal shops you will encounter a special shop. There you have only 1 very expensive card to buy. You must buy it, otherwise you lose the game. In this shop you can sell multiple groups of items.
Each special item will give you some powerful passive effect.

You win the game after collecting all 3 special items.

The game is short, but takes multiple tries to win. And you can play a few more times to try other strategies. There is a lot, we checked.

Kinda fun, but didn't get it...

Great art in here! I appreciate the call backs to famous paintings in your games style. I love the animation you've done for the "Stone Break" name in particular. I did find the game text a bit difficult to read which made understanding what's happening a bit more difficult. A fun play on the collector theme with a good title.

Not a huge fan of card games but I enjoyed this one (even though I was a little confused). The art was very good.

So incredibly impressive. Art, music, and mood were so polished. Game itself was a blast! I would pay money for this and play it for hours. Really really well done. Only nitpick to say is the text was a bit hard to read

great game, simple and fun to understand the game mechanics as you go.

Difficulty had good scaling

art was good, and had a distinct style

Took me some time to figure it out, but after all I really enjoyed it and played until I won :)
I feel like you can turn this into a bigger project afterwards!

Эта игра прекрасно реализована как технически, так и визуально. Интересная идея и продуманные сцены позволили мне погрузиться в эту игру полностью! Спасибо вам за полученный мной игровой опыт!

This was a really creative and good artstyle to go with it. I actually failed 5 times before I got past the first 15 gold vendor.

wow, this is an absolute banger! I love every thing about this game and looking forward to see it on Steam with metaprogression and a crazy story! I bet you can pull off one with these characters)

was so fun to figure out a good strategy and felt really rewarding, liked the card names/descriptions too?

The game feels very polished. The visual style and feedback are excellent, very respectable.

Очень самобытная во всех смыслах игра. Я наверное не до конца понял как в это играть, но впечатление очень положительное)

Hmm, that’s a cool concept — I also like the atmosphere! There’s definitely potential here to turn it into something really interesting later on.

Wow. This might be my favorite game from the jam. Only feedback is I wish I could see my deck when choosing the shop.

A near-perfect game in every way—I especially love the nods to classic artworks, and the mechanics are so well-balanced and fun that it’s an absolute blast to play!

Fantastic card game. Some seriously great synergies to work out, and really good mechanics in general. Hope you work on this post jam as well

Cool card game! I really loved the art style and the story behind the trading cards. Polished game for a jam. Great job!
JonasOlsson9 Oct 2025, 17:37
This game is amazing! As others already have pointed out, the artwork is super cool and the music is nice and soothing. I find it pretty addictive and min-maxing is always fun. Nothing to complain about really, good work!

Honestly loved this, the art, the gameplay loop, the references and everything else! If you were to tune some balancing and add some more content in the future - I would love to revisit this project!
Martynas Dargis9 Oct 2025, 18:58
This is my favourite jam game. I played it for an hour at least. Great job! The only improvement I would love to see is ability to browse your cards before choosing which store to visit. Also I really loved the art and the backstory. The mechanics are really clever.

looks very polished. I very much like the art style. I think I did not fully understand what I was doing but still enjoyed the different scenes =)

Sorry I'm late to playing your project, today was the first day I could get back on the computer, but I'm here now so let's go!

I mean this is clever, pretty, and just a solid execution. This is one of my favorite projects in the jam. Really no complaints, any plans to keep going post jam? I'd love to see this universe expanded upon!

Great entry! I got the three relics on my first try. The cards and combo mechanics feels nicely balanced, though I did not use the different David statues. The art, character design and music are beautiful, and I loved the whole "clandestine" atmosphere. Very nice!

I liked it, it's addictive! The music is well-chosen and doesn't get tiring. I also quickly grasped the rules of the game, even though I'm not an experienced card player.

А мне понравилось. Подходишь к торговцу, говоришь "не в масть тебе такие котлы, дядь, давай снимай", а он тебе "а ты мне закурить". Единственное упущение, как мне кажется, что деньги между раундами не сохраняются. Было бы круто, если бы сохранялись, я чутка расстроился и дропнул на последней двери, когда перед ней решил продать всё и оставить себе тупо деньги на финальную покупку, а они сгорели.

INGVIILD12 Oct 2025, 09:54
@mr-mesmer в этом и суть игры, что денег нет, есть только бартер)
И нужно просчитать ценность карт таким образом, чтобы хватило на равноценный обмен)
mr_mesmer
mr_mesmer12 Oct 2025, 10:04
@ingviild игра ваша, решать вам. Я бы ещё думал в сторону случайных событий между дверьми, где текстовый квест и варианты выбора (по типу знаков вопроса в slay the spire). И сами двери заменить на планеты, и дать возможность летать на космическом корабле по карте

Seen quite a few card games around this jam but this one absolutely holds the spot in terms of graphics and style. Gameplay may not be the most unique and isn't also the most thinnest in what can actually be played. For a jam game, very well done.

Очень классная игра! Прошел после нескольких попыток, как и было предсказано =) Приятно было поразбираться в механиках и подумать над стратегиями бартера с учетом долгосрочной цели накопить большую сумму перед редким обменом.
