In 2077, the world is dominated by huge corporations. All they care about is money, more precisely: credit. In Heroes for Sale, you enter a dynamic card duel and send superheroes into the game round after round. Whoever bids the most gets the heroes and tries to take over the opponent's bases. During the game, players will hire heroes and use these to destroy the bases of the opponent. However, the heroes have no morals, and if the opponent is willing to pay more, they will not hesitate to turn their back on you. Each turn involve you attacking with all your heroes followed by playing our a new hero. Your opponent gets to make an offer for recruiting that hero, and you may either let them have it or overbid to get the hero yourself.
