Been anticipating this game for some time. It's like a mix between RPG, CCG and boardgame. And according to the forums, there's going to be a demo coming out this week! And closed beta is next on their list. http://www.cardhunter.com/ Basic idea: You've got three characters, they level up, you equip your characters, the equipment gives you cards, that you draw and play during the fights, which are boardgame style. The higher level your characters, the better equipment you can equip(and thus the better cards in your decks), each character has a separate deck. 3 classes and 3 races to begin with, more are scheduled for post-launch. (Wizard, warrior, cleric for classes, human, elf, and dwarf for races, for 9 combinations, you can use any 3 combinations for your party, including duplicates, for a total of 729 possible party makeups). Boardgame combat is basically turn-based tactic style.
Thanks for the heads up on this one. It looks like a lot of fun, and free to play and no booster packs to buy just sweetens the deal.
