Ciak! is a card game where several pictures companies fight for the dominance of Lollywood, recruiting actors, crew members, all-time-legends in order to "pillage" other companies and eliminate them from the game, by making then loose all their "dominance" points.
Classical LCG mechanics are reimplemented in this new setting, and several game modes are available: team game, free for all, one against all.
The game is played in turns, divided in phases:
Phase 1: the active player draws a card from the pile and gains 1 million.
Phase 2: the active player recruits from his/her hand actors, crew members, all-time-legends, paying their cost in millions, when present. Other players can use "istant speed" abilities and cards.
Phase 3: The active player chooses an opponent to attack him/her. After performing a successfull attack roll, the attacking player sums all the attack values of his/her recruited cards, while the defending player adds his/her defence values. Istant speed abilities and cards can be used to modify such results. If the attacking player wins, he/she performs a pillage action: the defending player will loose one o more dominance points. If the defending player wins, he/she can damage one of the attacking payer's recruited cards.
Phase 4: same as Phase 2. At the end of this phase, all damage and activeted abilities are cleared off.
A company which looses its last dominance points is eliminated from the game.
