Greetings, the inhabitants of our little forest!
This update focuses on changing items in the game. Many items now add cards to the deck when equipped.
And we also have a new type of card - Effect. And the first effect card in the game is Curse. This is a negative effect for the player. So far, it can only be obtained if you take the Cursed Skull. In the future, cards of negative effects will be given by the traits of opponents and will vary in behavior. Now in the development of another card: Wound, Exhaustion. In general, such cards is the standard mechanics for deck building games.
Oh, and now you can dismantle unwanted items. For this you get a small amount of gold.
