Cards

From 9 Kings Official Wiki

Each king has 9 possible cards. Each game will start with 3 cards from the selected king. After each battle you can gain a card from the defeated king. The cards can be rerolled but the cost increases by 10 Gold with each reroll and usually the cards will be from the same king. Cards can also be purchased from merchants for the cost of 30 Gold, increased by 15 for each card bought from the same merchant.

Almost card comes in three levels. They can be upgraded by playing another card of the same type on the same plot.

You can throw cards from your hand into the well to discard them but recover 9 Gold per card.

You can only play or discard one card before each battle, excluding cards obtained from the merchant.

The first card placed each turn will be the Kingdom card. A life will be lost if any enemy unit reaches it should be placed in the back row.

After each battle a number will appear over each plot, showing how much damage they dealt during the last battle.
