WORMWOOD is a far-future, civilization combat card game, with eight different techno-tribal societies competing for control of their new homeworld. It combines elements from worker placement games, tower defense, and LCGs, to create a dynamic hybrid experience where a society can rise and fall in under 2 hours. Key points:
-Plays well with 2-5 players. Sweet spot is 3-4.
-Games average 15-30 minutes per player
-Offers the dramatic, combative tension of LCG’s with no player elimination. Multiplayer oriented.
-Focused on strong world building and emergent narratives
-Available to test in Tabletop Simulator or as a Print and Play fileset

Unfortunately, because the game uses non-licensed temp art for many cards, I can't offer it as a public beta just yet. But if you comment below or send a PM, I can send you a zip file to PnP with your friends. If you would like to test on TTS, just comment or PM with your Steam username, and you'll be added to the playtest group!
The latter - internet images are used on many cards, for some of which we don't have original artist contact information. In a small alpha playtest that's a gray area, but obviously as a public TTS mod that could be detrimental to their work.
The LCG vs TCG weirdness has been one of the first things brought up - originally called the game a TCG (although there is no trading) and several people noted that LCG is more accurate (if illegal). So LCG it is, if only to draw in testers who are interested in that model, vs booster packs.
Maybe we should call it just a CG.
