When you absolutely refuse to let Monday draw any new problems, play Stubborn As A Goat 🐐 #ALoM #CardGames #IndieGame #MondayMotivation
A Damascene goat with long, floppy ears and a stern expression stands in a rocky landscape with sparse vegetation, chewing on a thorny plant. The card frame is light brown with a green banner at the top showing a tree icon. White text reads "STUBBORN AS A GOAT" above "Insult • Mahjar Coalition". Below the middle text box, the rule states: "Your opponent cannot draw any cards next turn," followed by the flavor text: "Head like stone, path like arrow."

Grinding is terrible, and that's why you get all 140 cards the second you buy the game and open up the Usloob system in deckbuilding. Stacking cards of the same style activates up to four tiers of passive abilities, almost as an RPG armor set bonus. #wishlistwednesday #indiegames #ALoM

Three smiling developers stand arms-linked in front of a white wall under a wooden beam structure. The person on the left wears glasses, a dark blue short-sleeved shirt, and tan trousers. The person in the middle wears glasses, large over-ear headphones around his neck, a white patterned button-up shirt, and light blue shorts while jumping mid-air with his legs spread wide. The person on the right has a full beard and wears a black t-shirt featuring a colorful, neon-lined panda graphic.

While most #cardgames let you dump your whole hand at once, we limit you to one card per turn in #ALoM... But You can still build devastating combos across rounds. Play Extra Toum to double your power and drop a Sa7soo7 slap on the next turn to crush their Enduring Cedar defense. #indiegames

Now that we replaced our crude placeholder with the finished hand-drawn art, #ALoM looks like a real thing. In this clip we play Handala Is Watching to expose the opponent's hand. Seeing they are about to drop the Ultimate Insult Tozz! gives us the opportunity to counterattack. #indiegames

In #ALoM, Traps are one of five card types found in our game and operate purely on spite. You arm them on the board and wait for the moment your opponent gets confident, and triggers based on the effect to destroy their strategy. We'd like to call this weaponized patience. #indiegames

I mean, take a closer look at our new full art layout for cards. It really shows off how we turned a century of geopolitical disaster into a petty gameplay mechanic.
A full art digital playing card titled Borders Drawn By A Toddler. The background illustration features a map of the Middle East drawn over with crude crayon lines dividing the land into A and B. A baby rattle and four crayons rest on the map. The text instructs the opponent to discard two traps. The flavor text reads A child drew it, and we are still paying for it.

This Za'atar Union Trap embodies that Jagal street reputation: it triggers exactly on your opponent's defense to steal a card straight from their hand. We still have 100 cards and 5 Usloobs to reveal, but we gotta save some for later, but feast your eyes on all Shatara Usloob cards in one image.
A grid displaying 20 square comic book style illustrations of playing cards from the game The Arab League of Misfits. The artworks feature various comedic cultural scenarios, including a flying sandal, a glowing shisha pipe and more. The game's stylized logo is centered at the bottom over a solid black background.

A square comic book style illustration of a confident Arab man with a thick black beard and aviator sunglasses sitting on a blue motor scooter. He wears an unbuttoned red patterned shirt and brown pants. He spins a key ring on his right index finger with Arabic text reading "وش!" to indicate a whooshing motion. The background features a yellow textured wall with torn paper flyers, a blue street sign reading "شارع الحمراء RUE HAMRA" in Arabic and English, and a dark wooden window shutter.

"A soft plea that carries a heavy omen." Peak maternal drama treating a canceled lunch like an absolute catastrophe with "Ya Latif!". A card illustration featuring wonderful and authentic Palestinian tatreez from the archival work of Nabil Anani & Sliman Mansour via Tirazain. #indiegame #ALoM
A square comic book style illustration showing an older Arab woman wearing a dark red and black thobe with traditional Palestinian tatreez embroidery. She is reacting with extreme theatrical shock, holding her right hand to her chest with a gasping, wide-eyed expression. A jagged burst of glowing orange and yellow light radiates behind her to emphasize the drama. In her left hand, she holds a smartphone displaying a text message that reads "Mama habibti, I can't come to the family lunch today but pack me a tabarwer of your warak enab". The background features a muted domestic interior with framed pictures and a bookshelf, shaded with prominent halftone dot textures.

🎶 "One ring freezes the entire room." Nothing scarier than an indestructible brick phone vibrating on a table. We captured that specific panic of a loud gathering interrupted by a glowing green screen reading "mom", with polyphonic notes flying out like daggers. #indiegame #ALoM
A square comic book style illustration depicting an indestructible dark gray brick-style mobile phone from the early 2000s vibrating violently on a light gray table. Motion lines and Arabic text reading "بررر!" and "ززز!" surround the device to show intense buzzing. The phone features an eerily glowing green monochrome screen displaying the Arabic word "امي" above the English word "Answer". From the top speaker grill, a burst of musical notes stylized as sharp purple and blue scimitars and daggers shoots outward toward the upper right corner.

We translated that tea-fueled confusion into gameplay for this Shatara Trap card, as it triggers on an Insult to scramble your opponent's hand into unreadable glyphs, losing them in heavy Libyan slang over a thick, foamy glass of Shahi al-Alla.
A gameplay screenshot from the digital card game Shatara showing a hand of four Za'atar Union cards fanned out across a wooden surface. The Scramble VFX is active, transforming all standard typography, including card titles, mechanical abilities, and flavor text, into unreadable, stylized alien glyphs. While the rules text is scrambled, the central comic book style illustrations remain visible.

"Heard the talk, lost the translation." Unintelligible Dialect features Shahi al-Alla as a potion that induces caffeine jitters and hyper-local dialect fluency. Honestly, this thick, foamy brew might be the reason the rest of the Arab world struggles to keep up with Lybian slang. #indiegame #ALoM
A square comic book style illustration featuring a close-up of a traditional metal teapot pouring a dark stream of tea from a height into two small glass cups sitting on a brass tray. The cups are filled with dark tea topped with a thick, frothy beige foam. Around the vertical stream of poured tea, concentric oval sound ripples radiate outward, containing Arabic Libyan slang text reading "شن الدوة؟", "كنك؟", and "والله كساد".

On top of our main carrying traits known as Usloob, cards also carry a Regional Bloc tag to fuel network mechanics like Call In and add cross-cultural satire: Nile & Couscous Accord, Za’atar Union, Oud Cooperation Council, and Mahjar Coalition (from top left to bottom right). #indiegame #ALoM
A black square image displaying a two-by-two grid of four solid white flat icons representing regional blocs. The top left features a traditional Tajine cooking pot with a conical lid resting on a shallow base. The top right shows a shallow plate filled with Zaatar, featuring a textured serving swirl in the center. The bottom left displays a Mabkhara, a tall geometric incense burner, with two wisps of smoke rising from the top. The bottom right features a classic rectangular travel suitcase with reinforced corners and two vertical fastening straps

We're testing a new card layout for better accessibility and readability. We removed heavy color fills and shifted the Usloob color coding directly into the geometric framing Tell us what you think! #indiegame #ALoM
A vertical trading card design featuring a muted olive geometric frame. The title at the top reads "BORDERS DRAWN BY A TODDLER" in a white box. The central illustration displays a map of the Middle East overlaid with crude red, blue, and green crayon lines forming arbitrary borders. A baby pacifier, a silver rattle, and four crayons rest on the map, alongside faint historical signatures dated May 1916. A green circle icon containing a white tree sits on the left side above the card type "INSULT". The ability section uses a white background with black text stating "Your opponent discards 2 traps from their hand (if they have any)". A colorful geometric pattern line separates the ability from the italicized flavor text reading "A child drew it, and we're still paying for it". The bottom border houses the illustrator credit "Illus. Nazih Fares" on the left, a tier system indicator icon centered directly on the border, and the card number "017/140" on the right

🍬 Gum chewed longer than promises. Under-the-Table Gum is today's Trap card reveal from the Za'atar Union bloc and Shatara Usloob. This sticky trap triggers on the opponent's use of a defense card, to completely negate its effect with a sticky relic of school desk history. #indiegame #ALoM
A square comic book style illustration showing a close-up of a wooden school desk interior. A sweating person's hand has accidentally touched a massive, ancient wad of pink chewing gum molded into the shape of a hot air balloon, stretching sticky, web-like strings of gum between their fingers and the artifact. The background shows a classroom wall with Arabic posters

🏹 "Shot your arrow? Catch a zinger that snaps it mid-air." Quick Qafsha is our new Shatara Usloob reveal, an Insult card inspired by the Arabic word for spontaneous, sarcastic comeback or zinger, famously used in most 1950-1960s Egyptian movies. #indiegame #ALoM #cardgames #Egypt
A square comic book style illustration showing a suave mustachioed man resembling a 1960s Egyptian cinema acto leaning casually against an arched stone wall in a traditional Cairene courtyard with a fountain. Smiling effortlessly, he uses both hands to snap an incoming wooden arrow in half, triggering a bright orange sound effect bubble with the Arabic text "طَقّ" (or Tak in English). Several other arrows are standing still in the air in the background.

The universal reply when patience runs out. Tozz! is the Ultimate Insult card from the Shatara Usloob. Folkloric etymology traces the word back to the ancient Turkish word for salt, which slowly evolved across the region into the perfect expression of dismissal. #indiegame #ALoM #cardgames
A square comic book style illustration showing a side profile of a mustachioed man resembling the classic Abu Abed character, wearing a black vest over a white shirt and a red tarboush. He leans forward with his mouth wide open, screaming and unleashing a massive, forceful blast of white, granular salt crystals from his mouth. Inside the intense salt blast is the Arabic word "طز" or Toz in thick, stylized blue lettering. The background features a dynamic, heavily lined dark blue sky above a barren, cracked brown earth.

🤬 "Said with love but lands right where it hurts." Ya Hayawan! is our next card showcase. In Arabic etymology, calling someone an animal denies their intellect entirely, and so when you play this Insult card, your opponent's next Insult does absolutely nothing. #indiegame #ALoM #cardgames
A square comic book style illustration showing the Arabic word Hayawen or "حيوان" in stylized, dripping blue and purple graffiti text. The word sits inside a jagged yellow and red pop-art explosion bubble. The background is an orange brick wall with black action lines radiating outward from the bottom.

💪 Childhood logic booming from a grown man's chest. Our next card is My Dad is Stronger than Yours, an Insult from the Za'atar Union bloc. This is the playground root of every adult flex about family status in the Levant, turned into a brutal Shatara mechanic. #indiegame #ALoM #cardgames
A square comic book style illustration showing the back of a young boy in a blue shirt and grey shorts flexing his arms. He is standing atop the massively exaggerated, muscular shoulder and bicep of a giant man. The giant's arm dominates the right foreground. In the distant background below, a playground with a swing set and a slide sits on a patch of grass, alongside a tiny silhouette of another person flexing back.

Blame slides off like soap in warm water. This next card is That’s Not On Me! (or in Arabicشو وقفت عليي): a Defense type from the Shatara Usloob, and in a way, a classic Shami excuse for contributing to a collective mess turned into a playable mechanic. #ALoM #indiegame #arabart #cardgame
A comic book style illustration showing a vintage yellow and tan taxi stuck in a dense traffic jam.. The driver leans out the window, shouting and waving his arm angrily. A massive, thick cloud of black exhaust smoke billows out of his tailpipe to dwarf the car. The background features a hazy, polluted city skyline with silhouettes of buildings, a mosque minaret, and the iconic Beirut Martyrs' Square statue.

"Laugh till the night ends" Banter Session is our next card in the Shatara usloob, hailing from the Oud Cooperation Council bloc. The high-stakes chaos of a true Gulf gathering is now a playable mechanic. #ALoM #indiegame #arabart #cardgame
A comic book style illustration showing two Arab men in traditional white thobes and headwear lounging hysterically inside a traditional Sadu tent. The background walls feature distinct horizontal striped geometric Sadu patterns. Clouds of light smoke drift near the top. The bearded man on the left holds prayer beads and leans forward laughing. The man on the right leans back laughing with his mouth wide open. In the foreground on Sadu rugs are plates of sliced watermelon, a silver modern dallah, and small cups on a tray.
