I've seen other people post about this in other threads, which got me to sign up for the beta, but no actual thread yet.

It's a browser based game. A mix between old school DnD and tcgs. You make parties of 3 and dungeon crawl that has art and descriptions very reminiscent of golden age DnD. Instead of equipping a sword that gives + hit, it will gives you slash cards for your deck. Each of your characters has a separate deck. Only 3 races and 3 classes right now. Dwarves, Elves, Humans, Fighters, Clerics, Wizards.
I've made it to level 12 so far. It's pretty fun to play a dungeon or 2 here or there. It's not something I could play for hours every day. It really captures the feel of playing on a tabletop. You can see bags of chips and soda cans off the side of the board.
Unfortunately there's no way to edit deck size. It feels pretty bad to draw one attack card and then a bunch of moves and lose a battle because of that. I refuse to play weapons that aren't packed with maximum attacks, or draws. I'll equip armor that gives extra attacks too.
The early battle are pretty face-rolling but soon the difficulty ramps up. The troglodytes ~level 7 are a well known ass-beat.
I'd recommend checking the game out. It's free to play.
