About

A comedy-fueled collectible card game where movie tropes come to life—and run the studio too.
ScreenPlay CCG is a digital card game set in a delightfully absurd universe where the characters from your favorite genres aren’t just starring in films—they’re the ones calling the shots. Literally. These eccentric directors produce, direct, and even sabotage each other’s blockbusters in the most chaotic filmmaking process ever committed to cardboard… or, well, digital cardboard.
Build decks using genre-savvy characters, absurd plot twists, and iconic film tropes to outwit your rivals in a game that rewards strategy, timing, and a healthy appreciation for how ridiculous cinema can be.

Outthink, outplay, out-direct.
Unlike traditional CCGs that rely on slow turns and predictable patterns, ScreenPlay borrows from fighting game mechanics. You and your opponent plan your moves at the same time, then watch the result unfold like you’re watching a classic masterpiece in the making. Whether you’re pulling off a perfect dodge, reading an attack two scenes ahead, or throwing down a plot twist that makes everything go off the rails, victory comes from reading your opponent as much as your deck.
Want to bluff your way through a thriller? Go full ham in a melodrama? You can do that. This is a game of mind games and movie magic.
No waiting, no stalling—just pure, unpredictable chaos.
In ScreenPlay, both players secretly script their scenes (i.e., their turns) in advance. Once you've locked in your decisions, the game cuts straight to the action, playing both turns out simultaneously. The result? A fast-paced, brainy experience where timing and prediction are everything—and there's no room to pause for popcorn.
Every scene is a gamble. Did your Horror Lead strike when your opponent adventurously dodged? Did they perform a dramatic scene while you expected an action movie-style assault? You won’t know until the camera rolls.
Victory isn’t about HP bars—it’s about completing your character arcs .
Every Lead character has a distinct narrative journey. Over the course of a match, you’ll earn Narrative Points by playing synergistic cards and making smart choices. Complete the arcs of any two of your three Leads, and you win the game. No explosions required—though those help too.
This mechanic rewards clever deck construction, genre mastery, and good ol’ fashioned timing. It’s a game of stories within a story, where every match feels like a mini movie—even if the script makes no sense and half the cast is mysteriously missing in act two.
Just remember: knowing your opponent’s Leads and their story goals can help you sabotage their arcs before they reach their big finale.
With over 22 unique Leads available at launch and many more in development, ScreenPlay is packed with genre-hopping personalities ready for the spotlight.
Each Lead comes from a different cinematic tradition and brings a signature set of abilities and cards. Whether you're leaning into the brooding mystery of Richard Spade, the razor-sharp wit of Roast Comic Frog, the righteous vengeance of Maximus, or the pure chaos of the Illuminati Lizard, every character changes how you build your deck and approach the game.
And with the ability to mix and match any three Leads, the combinations are practically limitless—well, not actually limitless, this is still an indie game. But you get the idea.
Deckbuilding isn't just strategy—it's screenwriting.
You’ll start each game by choosing three Leads and constructing a 40-card deck tailored to their unique arcs. Some cards represent their strengths. Others exploit genre clichés or set up over-the-top payoffs. Want to lean into a character’s Plot Armor? Go for it. Here, “lazy writing” is just another path to brilliance.
The result is a game where every match feels like a short film that spirals out of control in the best possible way. Build tension. Subvert expectations. And maybe—just maybe—pull off a finale worthy of a standing ovation.
Not ready for the festival circuit? No problem.
Start off with a guided tutorial and a pre-built deck to ease you into the chaotic world of ScreenPlay. Then, grow your collection by completing daily and weekly challenges, or by taking on boss bots in a rotating lineup of single-player game modes. There’s always something new to do—even if your cast is constantly forgetting their lines.
Future updates will bring full-blown movie campaign modes, letting you explore the bizarre backstories, rivalries, and plot holes of your favorite Leads. Just pray they don’t go on strike before then. The devs writing the scripts themselves? Terrifying.
Challenge filmmakers around the world in a battle for box office supremacy.
Jump into competitive ladder matches against players of your skill level or explore alternate multiplayer formats for chaotic genre mashups. Want to make a romantic horror musical with a sci-fi twist and a noir detective lead? That’s not just possible—it’s encouraged.
Show off your deckbuilding brilliance, master the meta, or just enjoy the ride. Because in ScreenPlay, even the worst movie can still win Best Picture if you play your cards right.
Oh, and don’t forget to join the community on Discord—weekly tournaments, bonus prizes, and the occasional pun war await.
Build your collection your way—whether through grind or glamour.
Earn cards by completing missions, opening booster packs, or climbing the competitive ladder. Got extras? Use the in-game crafting system to recycle duplicates into the cards you actually want.
Feeling like a silver spoon-fed producer? You can also buy cards directly. We get it—not everyone wants to hustle in the editing bay. No judgment (well, maybe a little).
New content, every quarter. New drama, every time.
Every three months, ScreenPlay gets a fresh injection of content—new Leads, new cards, new movies, and new ways to play. These expansions keep the meta fresh and the production mayhem rolling, giving you endless ways to reinvent your cinematic masterpieces.

Cool idea but the starter decks are all the same with no variation. Playing with my friend and we were doing the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ things because we had no little reel maneuvers to make new cards. Challenges were unfun and left me feeling like making a deck was out of reach and not worth even playing for, which is the entire point of a card game. Making decks that do cool ♥♥♥♥ but it is unattainable here.

Mal, no funciona el tutorial me congela la PC, se me tilda la maquina. Ahora mejoro pero tira error archivo no encontrado o algo.
Игра ScreenPlay CCG зацепила меня своей уникальной механикой "сценариев". Вместо обычного сражения карт, здесь разыгрываются полноценные сюжетные эпизоды, где карты выступают как актеры и декорации. Правила легко освоить, но глубина стратегии поражает – нужно учитывать не только силу карт, но и их взаимодействие в рамках сценария. Оформление карт приятное, хоть и не хватает анимаций и более детальных артов. Баланс пока немного хромает, некоторые колоды явно сильнее других, но разработчики активно выпускают обновления и правят мету. Самое интересное – это создание собственных сценариев. Это открывает безграничные возможности для творчества и позволяет делиться своими идеями с другими игроками. ScreenPlay CCG – отличный выбор для любителей CCG, которые ищут что-то новое и нестандартное. Рекомендую!
I am in love with this game. However, I am sad that not many know of this game. given that this is such an original take on CCG genre, the tutorial doesn't do justice. First of all, a game where simultaneous play makes sense. It takes a while to unlearn some stuff from other games but once you get into it, you can play for hours. The characters are awesome and so funny. So many movie references... though the younger audience might not see them. Art style is great. I got into this game cos I love the archie lead and actually is my favorite lead. There are not many players on the server but I had fun playing the cinematic debut and against bots. I read some other reviews and agree that this needs a roguelike mode. Also, I feel the game needs a bit polish for the onboarding of a new player. A lot of information bombarding too early on. That being said, for an indie game, the quality is top and I hope you can finish this. I don't mind the ai art but I prefer the artist drawn one... they are so good quality and makes me happily sink my wallet for them. A small suggestion... when a player loses a match, maybe some suggestion on how the deck could be improved? The godfish lead is a tough one to beat and it took me a while to figure how to stop him. Also, the voice lines are great but not all characters have it. The lead final animations are cool but lack sound fx. Overall, I hope people give this game a try and support. It needs more players and it needs success so they can finish it and also add more cool content.
A game that puts your card collection to the test, with a digital twist that's not too shabby.
No game perfect but II love the humor of this game and it plays nice. I'm not one to talk about balance and stuff though
This game is like many other turn based card games like Magic the gathering, Marvels Snap!, etc. Each card has certain powers, levels, hp, and xp. you can have fun with this game and though it's a bit corny it's still a fun relaxing game, once you know how to play.
Bright colorful cards, good tutorial, and fun to play! This game is craftily organized around movie and crafty game playing.
