Parallel TCG is the first game project in the Echelon Ecosystem. It is a trading card game set in an augmented reality (AR) and geolocation accessible parallel universe. It draws inspiration from traditional TCGs such as Magic the Gathering and Hearthstone, but the style is one of modern/future tech or sci fi.
Players compete head to head for tokens. A Parallel match is typically a 1 vs. 1, turn-based battle, where the first player to have their life points reduced to zero loses. In the game, each player represents one of the lore’s five Parallels. Decks must consist of 40 cards, selected from a single Parallel and the “Universal” pool. Outside of those 40 cards, a Paragon—a unit offering unique passive and active abilities belonging to the deck’s chosen Parallel—must be selected. Each card in Parallel has an Energy cost (located in the top right of every card). Players start the game without Energy, but gain energy by Banking cards. Players get 1 unit of Energy to spend on playing cards for each card in the Bank. Energy is refilled to the current maximum available at the start of each turn. Unspent Energy remaining at the end of the turn does not carry over to the next. As the game progresses, players will gradually build a larger Bank. Banked Energy in later rounds allow players to play increasingly expensive cards, opening the game up to more impressive moves and powerful abilities.
The pro circuit (official name to be determined) is the pinnacle of Parallel organized play. A few times each year, Parallel will host a mega-tournament where Bonds compete for prize pools. These tournaments would require fully NFT decks in order to participate, providing an edge to well-formed Bonds that are able to share their cards amongst their most skilled members. This circuit would involve regularly scheduled daily or weekly events that would be used for placement in the main events where the largest prizes would be awarded to the winning Bonds.
