How C.U.T Came About

I had started making martial arts content on TikTok for almost a year and meet so many wonderful martial artist and content creators along the way. Because there were so many martial artist and content creators on TikTok I had an idea that I thought would be really fun to create. Why not create some sort of martial arts card game that I can play with all my friends, family and even children. So, I set out on a mission to create one and reached out to several martial artists and other content creators that I interacted often with and pitched the idea.

Eventually a group was formed, and we started collaborating and sharing ideas on what would make a great card game. I want to give a shout out to the following TikTok creators that were there through our ups and downs and all their contribution to the game. Without them we may not have finished it. Please check them out on TikTok from the links below.

All warriors in this game will be first and foremost Martial artist and content creators on TikTok and possibly from other social media platform. I also want to keep it interesting and educational in creating a martial-arts related combat card game that anyone can play with including younger children. If the game becomes successful, I will be printing more copies of it and sending them out on demand per order. We may also consider building am online version of this game in the future if there are more interests.

In this first edition, you will have 6 warriors to choose from. Each warrior in the game is a real person and is a content creator on TikTok dressed in their style of combat. Each warrior belongs to 1 of the 6 different districts. In the future, the game will have other types of warriors ranging from traditional martial art styles like Kung Fu, Karate, Muay Thai, to modern combat systems like MMA, BJJ, Krav Mega, to cosplay and fantasy warriors like Pirates, Vikings, Naruto, Zoro, etc. As the game becomes more popular, we will create future booster packs with more warriors and expand to other options like story books, online games, game app, NFTs and DND game style play.

There are 2 sets of cards, the Attack and Defense card. A set of dice will also be used for the game as part of gameplay.  Each attack or defense card represent will show actual techniques used by one of the 6 original warriors. They will have their own style of combat for attack or defense depending upon the content creator. Each warrior will have 3 different attacks techniques and 3 different defense techniques.

SAMPLE ATTACK & DEFENSE CARDS

You will have to choose wisely on what type of attack or defense you will be using against your opponent to survive. You will also need a combat strategy and some luck to defeat all of the other warriors and become the ultimate Undercity champion.

We are now planning on future upgrades and booster packs along with online NFT cards depending on the success of this project.

Printing & Pre-Ordering

We are also with the creation of the first game and are now ready to go to print. We choose to use a Tin box as the packaging option to save cost for production and for you. We want to keep the game affordable. I will be marketing the game on different social media sites especially on TikTok and recruiting more content creator for the game. We’ll work with other content creators and have them help us promote the game. It may take a few weeks to get it printed individually and sent out but if we are able to get a bulk order, we can have it all coming in at the same time and have some on inventory.

Interested In Being Part of the Next Booster or “Action” Booster Pack?

Because the game requires lots of preparations, work, time and cost associated with creating each card, we would like to offer you a chance to be part of the game with different levels of participation. You can choose from the different levels of involvement and for each level you will get a copy of the next booster pack or next version of the game depending on your contribution level.
