A few early game results

David and Sherry Palmer easily defeating Nina Myers and her Femme Fatales.

Jack Bauer, with a lot of help from Kim, defeated Charles Logan and his minions.

Yet another Jack Bauer vs. Jack Bauer match up, I think Jack won that one.

Jack Bauer barely held off the Palmer onslaught.

To finish the best of the early games today a nail bitter between two different Palmer decks.

Day Three Begins

Playtesting started again about 40 minutes ago, after a nice breakfast of donuts and well more donuts. The extra sugar should help get things going. Today is shorter day than Friday and Saturday but we'll still get in plenty of games. One of everyone's favorite cards so far is the senator version of David Palmer. Man he is really good. Well off to test.

Day Two is Done

Well Day Two is finally done. Some 14 hours or so of testing, it is time to call it a day. Let me just say this game is turning out to be a blast.

Keep on keepin' on

12 hours later and we're still going. From Jack Bauer to Nina Myers to Chase Edmunds to Victor Drazen we've seen it all today. The fast-paced game engine has held up just like we thought it would. Players are having a very good time playing their favorite characters from 24. The unique timing and deck size are creating a great TCG experience. We'll have some more updates and fun playtest weekend stories over the next few weeks. Don't worry we're not done with updates this weekend though.

Day Two is well underway

We're not quite as hardcore as Jack Bauer, instead of 24 hour days we went from 8am till 8:30pm yesterday. The plan today is from 9am till about 11pm or 12am. We started a little late, around 9:30 or so. With an even dozen of us we should get in around 400 or so games today, not bad.

My plan today, at least for the first part of the day, is to play Nina Myers and her Infiltrators. These are the bad guys who represent the spies, the ones who sneak around and try to back stab everyone including CTU. We'll see how they go.

Jack Bauer vs. Jack Bauer

In my first playtest game of the weekend it was a Jack centric deck vs. a Jack centric deck. In a series of three turns Jack killed Jack five times between me and the other player. What good times.

Playtesting

This weekend (May 4 - 6) is our first major playtesting session for 24 TCG. We've been working on the game since November 2006 and now it is time to grind out and test the cards. It should be fun, about 16 or so of us will be here all weekend and we'll be testing over 450 cards! I'm going to make sure to post some funny stories and insight from the weekend. Check back for as many updates as we can post.
