So, how do you best characterize TFW in a short, slogan-like description ?

This is taken from a TFW fanpage on Facebook (where I am not yet a member...):

A MMO-TB-Hex-VCCG (Massive Multiplayer Online TurnBased HexBoard Virtual Collectable Card Game)

Accurate, but not very sexy :)

Any other suggestions?

A TCG where the cards become pieces of a board game.

A game that combines the strategy archtype of board games along with the aspect of a TCG.

An MMO that completley rewrites cards games rules. (seriously, I haven't seen another card game with a strategy element like this one.)

A game where the players contribute as much as the developers do (scripting system =YAY)

The Far Wilds -- where CCG meets Board Game in an epic test of strategy and skill.

I usually describe it as a cross between a turn-based strategy game and a CCG.

Most turn based strategy games use hexes, so that comes with the territory. And it's not really MMO: games are typically 1v1 affairs - unlike some other strategy games (and especially role playing games) in which 30 people or more will interact within the same game.

Bumping this because I am still interested in the original question :)

A combination of Magic The Gathering, Risk, and Settlers of Catan.

Turnbased Strategy game with elements of tabletop and CCG combined. Definetly not an MMO. MMOs are like world of warcraft.
