-You may [[how-to-play|check how it is played here]], or [[exode-versions|learn more information about our released versions]]. +
- +
-We have also started releasing game mechanics and statistics, some of which [[games-rules-orders|can be accessed here]]. +
- +
-You may also use this wiki to check everything about the [[concepts|game concepts]], [[features|features]] ​and [[history|history]]. +
- +
-We also strongly advise to check the [[https://​youtu.be/​fD7GOLElyxY|introduction video]] to understand the game better. +

-==== A Collectible Game ====== +
- +
-To check specific information about a "game card" ([[cards|cards]] are assets ​that players can exchange), like current values of a card, more information will be made available on: +
- +
-  * [[starbase-datacore|The Starbase Datacore]], for any information related to civilized ​assets ​that players can escape with. +
-   +
-  * [[supplies-datacore|The Supplies Datacore]], for any information related to supplies which can be [[delivered|delivered]] to [[player-colony|player colonies]]. +
- +
-  * And quite possibly [[exode-webzines|EXODE Webzines]] when they will be made available. +
-  +
-The game also allows to preorder specific [[packs|packs]] and follows a [[rarity-system|rarity system]]. +
- +
-Note that EXODE does not brand itself as a TCG or CCG. +
- +
-EXODE cards have far more options than basic Attack/​Defend/​Health attributes and EXODE does not stand as a face-to-face card system. TCG is a very successful system and EXODE tries to build something further than that. +
- +
-EXODE is a "​collectible strategy game" ​(CSG? we know it's a new acronym) with some roleplaying features. It opted for more [[cooperative|cooperative]] ​and contributive elements between players, discarding PVP attacks on less equippped players, but encouraging also full competition between players and [[leaderboards|leaderboards]]. +
- +
-This means that we consider it "a living collectible strategy game"​. +
-  +
-EXODE will be released as a browser game before expanding its features thanks to a game client. +
- +
-==== More about it? ====== +
- +
-A full [[faq|FAQ]] has been released. Check it out! +
- +
-To understand ​the game sequence: +
- +
-Players create a [[main-character|main character]] by using [[character-class|character class cards]] and adding [[skills|specific skills]].  +
- +
-Then they escape with [[starships|ships]],​ [[crew|crews]],​ [[passengers|passengers]] (who will become [[citizens|citizens]] laterand [[crates|resource crates]]. +
  
-Once players choose ​and [[settle|settle on a planet]]they receive ​[[player-colony|colony]].+===== The Manifesto ===== 
 +The first and most important thing about any new game is to know what is in the designer/​developer’s head.  It will tell you what he believes is importantwhere his priorities are and, generally, which way he is likely to decide when there are multiple options. ​ Conveniently,​ Elindos has written ​Game Manifesto that gives a great feel for where his head is at, what he wants to do and what he wants to avoid. ​ It is relatively short and extremely well written. ​ You should go and read it now before proceeding
  
-They will then be able to [[colony-management|manage their colony]], [[planet-exploration|explore their planet]], [[galaxy-exploration|explore the galaxy]] and [[player-resources|create unique resources]] specific to their planetary discoveries.+https://​exodegame.com/​documents/​EXODE_Manifesto.pdf ​
