''Bloons Card Storm'' is a turn-based card game played with two players. At the start of a match, each player draws their starting hand and can redraw a card in their starting hand up to 3 times. The player that goes first starts with 3 cards, while the other player starts with 4 cards and 1 extra Gold. At the start of each turn, the turn player draws one card and gains Gold. Players can have up to 8 cards in their hand and can save up to 20 Gold. The amount of Gold earned at the start of a turn starts at 1 and increases by 1 after each turn, up to a maximum of 10 Gold per turn. On each turn, players can spend Gold to play cards, use their [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]]s to attack the opponent's [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s, or spend [[Bloontonium]] to use one of their [[Hero]]'s Abilities. At the end of their turn, all of the player's [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s reduce their turn delay by 1 and attack the opponent's Hero when they reach zero. The player to reduce the opponent's Hero's health to 0 first wins the match. | |||
