A Quick Update!May 21, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsSome of you may have noticed that CUE’s Steam page now displays the message: ‘Notice: Cards, the Universe and Everything is no longer available on the Steam store.’ This follows an ongoing discussion with Steam regarding the PC version of CUE. They’ve raised some concerns about the title and, while we haven’t yet found a solution that works for everyone, we’re continuing to explore options and doing everything we can to move things forward and get the game onto the platform. Thanks, as always, for your support and patience - we’ll keep you updated as things progress.📽️CUE coming to PC: Developer Discussions!📽️May 6, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsJoin AvidJoe, AvidPM, AvidAli, AvidGrant, and AvidMark (deep breath) in our latest Developer Discussions Episode as we dive into what excites - and slightly terrifies - us about the upcoming PC launch of Cards, the Universe and Everything! We’re thrilled to bring the game to Steam, and we can’t wait for you to experience it. Got questions?

CUE Coming to PC: Developer Discussions video!Cards, the Universe and Everything: First Look at Cyberspace Cards!Apr 28, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHey! I’m Joe, Community Manager at Avid Games. If you’ve ever witnessed me misplaying basic cards live on stream or seen me stumbling around on Discord and socials - you already know the deal. Our new Season, Cyberspace, is now live, bringing with it the new Programming collection (as you probably know!). But you're here for a sneak peek at some of the interesting new cards arriving this week, right? Let's just say I might have accidentally stumbled upon a top-secret Google Doc (don't tell anyone at Avid), and I'm about to spill some exciting beans. Some of you might even find my potential future trouble amusing, so without further ado, let's dive headfirst into some of the awesome new cards heading your way in Cyberspace! First up, feast your eyes on the Excellent Elements buffer, Atomium! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45433390/e9b4264e4de62bf8901833545ac2e8b155e51837.png The Atomium isn’t exactly what you'd call understated. Built in 1958 for the Brussels World's Fair, it was Belgium’s bold declaration that science was the future - and also that they were really into giant metal spheres. This new addition is set to create a fantastic new deck archetype, pretty much perfectly synergizing with your Excellent Elements and Super Structures cards! For our newer players, Super Structures are a fantastic starter deck, and this looks like the perfect evolution for those beginner decks. Now, squeezing my beloved Super Structures down to just 9 cards in a 9/9 split (18 cards in a deck and we need 9 for the play ability) is going to be a challenge for a massive fan like myself. Sorry, Golden Gate Bridge, my love, but you might have to take a breather this season! New to the wonders of Super Structures? Check out the Curated Deck in-game – you'll find it at the bottom of your deck interface, the fourth one down. (Maybe we should add some direct links in the future, eh? It is 2025 after all!) Okay, enough with the complex stuff for now. Let's move on to a more straightforward card that you'll be eager to add to your collection: the adorable Little Owl! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45433390/f0a2608c965ff78e1068f0c4035207609c513a0f.png 12 power, you say? Doesn't sound like much, right? WRONG! The Birds collection is already a great option for newcomers, but this little feathered friend packs a serious punch, granting permanent power to your Life on Land cards in hand for a mere 2 energy! And you know what they say: permanent power is good. Very good. Circling back to that super-low energy cost, Tiny decks have been getting some exciting new toys lately, and the Life on Land album boasts some incredible low-energy collections. Think of Tiny decks as a powerhouse of low-cost cards boosting each other to crazy heights. So, Little Owl is bringing BIG power to the Tiny scene! (Okay, I promise to stop just typing whatever pops into my head... moving swiftly along!) And now, for the grand finale of this week's sneak peeks! I'm even venturing a bit further into the future than I'm usuall...History Highlights this week!👀Apr 17, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsGladiator (8/65) Welcome, bloodthirsty spectators, to another thrilling day in the Roman murder dome! Are you not entertained?! Vengeance, in this life or the next When drawn, your The Roman Empire cards in-hand gain +30 Power this turn. When played, for every Round you have lost this game, your The Roman Empire cards, wherever they are, gain +12 Power until played. When returned to your deck, if you lost the turn, your The Roman Empire cards remaining in-hand gain +20 Power permanently. Aka Manto (3/29) Attention, toilet users! If you find yourself in the fourth stall of a Japanese school bathroom, facing a masked man in red, do NOT engage. You’re in the presence of Aka Manto, the phantom of the lavatory opera. Red paper, Blue paper If played in the left slot, give your Japanese Folklore cards with Draw abilities, wherever they are, +23 Power until played. If played in the right slot, give your Japanese Folklore cards with Play abilities, wherever they are, +23 Power until played. Tennin (5/50) In Japanese Buddhism, Tennin (or “sky people”) are celestial beings tasked with maintaining cosmic order between deities and mortals. They float between heaven and Earth, draped in luxurious kimonos and feathered scarves (hagoromo) that grant them flight. Heavenly Raiment When played, if your deck contains exactly 5 Albums, your cards, wherever they are, gain +16 Power until played. If your deck contains exactly 5 collections, your cards, wherever they are, gain an additional +10 Power until played.
