A recent announcement by Catalyst Game Labs provides additional detail on the company’s Cartoon Hangover license, a deal which I reported on back in August. Specifically, Catalyst is planning to publish Bravest Warriors and Bee and PuppyCat collectible card games.
Planned for release in 2014, the games will incorporate the LevelUp system, “a cooperative play card game with fractured story telling.” LevelUp challenges players with threats grouped into “episodes”. The players roll dice to overcome those threats, and when they do, they turn over the threat cards to see their rewards—at least that’s what they hope for. Sometimes on the other side is a trap or greater villain. During the course of the game, players may also advance their Bravest Warrior cards and flip them over to reveal advanced powers.
