Cross Blitz

Are you ready? It’s time to BLITZ!

Cross Blitz is a new, exciting card based role-playing game set in a fantastical world teeming with vibrant characters and fierce battles. Select one of five heroes and adventure through their story as you uncover the many wonders of Cross Dawn Isle! From bloodthirsty lion pirates, to showy pop-star bards, you never know what you’ll run into next in this quirky fantasy universe.

Taking inspiration from beloved JRPG franchises like Breath of Fire, Dragon Quest, and Final Fantasy – and mixing them together with elements from popular card games like Hearthstone, Slay the Spire, and Steamworld Quest – we aim to deliver a unique, thrilling adventure for all types of players.

Cross Blitz contains multiple content-heavy single player modes – ranging from narrative driven story modes like ‘Fables’, to the deadly rogue-like challenge of the ‘Hollow Hunt’. And for those who love a heated PvP experience, exciting challenges await in the ‘Coliseum’ – an online competitive mode with cross-play functionality between all available platforms (PC, Mac, iOS, and Android).

– Play through each hero’s story as they face a variety of trials and tribulations! Sail the dangerous waters of the Southron Sea alongside the pirate Redcroft or explore the underbelly of the bustling city of Dawndell with Quill the pipsqueak thief!

– Collect over 250 cards across 5 factions – War, Nature, Balance, Fortune, and Chaos. Gather ingredients from winning battles to craft even more powerful cards!

– Partake in fierce battles that require strategy and cunning – build the perfect deck to stomp your enemies into dust! Easy to pick-up, but difficult to master, you’ll have to harness the strength of your minions alongside a plethora of spells, trick cards, and Blitz Bursts if you’re to claim victory!

– An expansive world awaits, filled with colorful characters and curious locations. The hex map exploration system makes it easy to navigate from region to region – with plenty of secrets to be found along the way!

– The Hollow Hunt beckons! Play against increasingly difficult opponents as you make your way through this exciting rogue-like game mode, venturing deeper and deeper into the abandoned ruins at the border of the Hellwilds.

– Partake in the Coliseum and battle against opponents online with cross-play across all supported platforms.

– Beautifully rendered pixel art awaits you at every twist and turn.

Cross Blitz is the third project from Tako Boy Studios. Development began in 2019, shortly after the completion of their first game, Candies ‘n Curses. Tom, the studio’s lead programmer, has dreamt of developing his own full-fledged card game for years – and Cross Blitz was his opportunity to turn that dream into reality.

Tako Boy Studios is an independent game development studio, co-owned by Tom Ferrer and Phil Giarrusso. Their design philosophy prioritizes juicy, exciting gameplay populated with colorful, quirky characters – building on the foundations of their favorite games, and melding these inspirations with unique twists of creativity. Lovingly crafted pixel art is their specialty.

Community engagement is important to Tako Boy Studios, and they actively participate in discussion on Twitter and Discord with their audience. By listening to players and incorporating their feedback, they aim to develop the best games they can.
