Description
Custom Heroes is a card-crafting, climbing trick game in which plastic cards are added to sleeves in order to modify the cards already in those sleeves.
Please note: Custom Heroes is shipped with a protective plastic film on each card which should be removed prior to play. Once removed the colors will be more vibrant and it will be easier to see cards in a stack inside a sleeve.
The players attempt to win rounds by getting rid of their cards as quickly as possible using the classic climbing trick mechanic. e.g. If a player leads with three 4s then the next player must play three of a kind of equal or higher value. When all players pass, the last player to have played cards leads a new trick with whatever card or set of equal cards they want. Go out of cards first for first place, second for second, etc.
However, you also have advancements you can sleeve onto your cards. These may increase or decrease the value of the cards, or even add new abilities such as turning a card into a wild or reversing the direction of the values (i.e. you are now playing lower numbers instead of higher) or making cards count as multiple copies of themselves, etc.
But since all of the cards are reshuffled and dealt to start a new round, the changes you made may end up with someone else (and vice versa), and the common distribution of values will begin to change and shift over multiple hands. Thus, a good strategy must factor in not just doing well in the current hand, but also managing your resources (card advancements) over multiple hands and maximizing their impact though well timed plays.
You earn points and more advancements based on your end of round position. Be the first player to go out each round and gain the most points, but draw fewer new advancements for the next hand. To win a player must first get to 10 points, and then win a hand.

Un drole de mélange | |
Soyons franc. Il s'agit du jeu de cartes du Président (connu de manière populaire comme le "Trou'd'cul") mais avec une twist "gamer". J'ai été vraiment surpris du résultat. Un bon petit jeu, facile à jouer et drolement amusant. Beau concept original :) |

Custom heroes | |
Custom heroes est un excellent jeu pour soirées entre amis ou en famille. Les règlements sont très simple à comprendre et très simple à expliquer. Custom heroes est une version revue du jeu du trou de cul. Il est seulement par fois difficile de mettre les cartes dans les sleeves. |

Excellent jeu de carte avec modificateur | |
Ce jeu est très plaisant puisqu'il s'agit d'un jeu de carte assez simple avec des modificateurs de cartes qui permet d'avoir diverses stratégies. La chance ne suffit dont pas. Excellent jeu! |

Sympatique | |
Un jeu qui rappelle le jeu du président où un joueur place une carte ou plusieurs cartes pareil. Ensuite, les autres joueurs joue sur ses cartes avec une ou des cartes de plus haute valeurs. La différence est le fait que vous pouvez modifier avec d'autre cartes la valeur pour la durée de la partie. C'est bien passé et assez original. |
