Pixel Rush: RTS - Alpha play test

What is the game about?

Pixel Rush: RTS is a fantasy real-time strategy deck builder where every monster, spell, and evolution comes from the deck you bring into battle. Summon units onto the battlefield, evolve them into stronger forms, cast spells at key moments, and fight for control of towers in fast-paced real-time matches.

Pixel Rush: RTS combines the planning and strategy of a deck builder with the pressure of a real-time strategy game. Build your deck, read the battlefield and time your plays to provide the most value possible.
