Match of the Century
Two rival grandmasters replay a historic championship through a compact, card-driven match. Players take alternating quick games composed of a few intense turns, resolving chess-like confrontations without a full board. Each player uses an asymmetrical deck of cards with unique effects to influence the opponent’s mental endurance and the result of individual games. Cards often require sacrificing positional advantage to trigger effects, so players balance short-term gains against long-term match strategy as they play a series of games to decide the winner.

from 17 Ludoya reviews
One of the best 2p games I have ever played. With similar feelings than Watergate, Schotten Totten and Hanamikoji, it succeeds on making an exciting game with lots of decisions and tension that lasts less than 30 minutes. An instant classic for me
