About Drug Rush

Drug Rush is a satirical trading card game where different substances compete for dominance. Inspired by the rock-paper-scissors mechanics of classic TCGs, each of the four drug classes has strengths and weaknesses against the others.

Built as a creative concept project — 32 cards, four classes, and a whole lot of flavor text. The game is free, non-commercial, and meant to be enjoyed with a dark sense of humor.

If you enjoy the project, consider supporting development on Ko-fi to keep new cards and expansions coming.
