Do you think you have an encyclopedic knowledge of every Hearthstone card and you want to prove it? HearthCards just launched a new feature on their site where you will be able to do just that.
I don't think we're in HearthCards anymore.
If HearthCards looks a little bit different now than it did back then, that's because the site was overhauled back in September of this year which included a new UI and new features, but the old version of the site is still accessible.
But I'm getting off-topic here. You may notice the new "Game" button at the bottom that was not originally there. You can probably guess what that does, right?
The Nameless One is truly in shambles right now.
After you click on the game button, the site will change quite a bit and the game will begin. The site will give you a random card from the real game imported onto the creator canvas with one random attribute blanked out, and it's your job to fill that field in correctly.
Guess the Weight is a more popular game than Guess the Cost.
The game may ask you to fill one in of many different attributes of the card from the name, its class, its Cost, its Attack or Health, its rarity, or its watermark. The one will you be tasked to fill in will have a green highlight around it. Minion types and spell schools don't appear to be in the pool though, presumably because of how not every card has either of them and it would be unintuitive to leave the answer blank if the card had no minion type or spell school.
Click on "Check" to confirm your answer and move to the next card. Whenever you guess correctly, you will hear a "ding" sound effect. If you guess incorrectly though, you will instead hear a buzzer and lose a life.
Use the Life and Round counters to keep track of the number of lives you have and how far you've made it. You can also click the "Back" button at any time to abandon the game.
After you guess 10 cards, you'll now be asked to fill in two different attributes of each card and you must get both of them right for the answer to count as correct. After 20 cards, you'll be asked to fill in three. This (presumably) keeps going for as long as you can keep correctly guessing everything.
So, do you think you know everything about every Hearthstone card and want to set out there and show the world (or at least whatever Hearthstone communities you're a part of) that you can? Time to head on over to HearthCards and show them all who's the boss.

Update: I didn't realize until now that the article was using an out-of-date version of the trivia game. Originally, the game had a maximum of 10 rounds and you had no lives. It was just how many could you guess out of 10. I wrote this article as soon as the game went live in its original version and then I set it to go live later. At first, I was confused why people were talking about getting to rounds past 10 since 10 was the maximum when I wrote the article, and I'm now realizing that the game you guys were playing was an updated version of what I played.
I've now changed the article to use the new version of the game with the new information.
The highest I made it was round 23, because I got lucky with not getting asked for rarity. I have no idea whether something is a common, rare, or epic though. Also, it starts asking for two things after round ten and three things after round twenty. I kinda want to cheat so I can go until it's nothing but card art or something.
I absolutely do not remember card names, so I got to round 8 before it started spewing card names on every prompt, that is where I ended :D
Same here, who remembers card names anyways? It has always been: 4 mana 7/7 or Doctor 7 or 2 mana draw 2 overload 2 😋
Nice little game, I got to Round 11 at first attempt. Same score at second attempt, I keep forgetting that the difficulty increases at that round. I will try a couple more times to see if I can improve my score a bit.
EDIT: Round 20 is my best score so far. Correct names followed by which specific set are my two biggest hurdles.
