Pitchlife Hearts for iOS

Pitchlife is a free-to-play mobile game aimed at fans of Heart of Midlothian FC. It allows game-players to collect football players from throughout the history of the club (more than 1200 in all), build teams, and compete against other game-players to unlock the story of Hearts players from 1874 on.

A unique aspect of Pitchlife is this ability to access players from all decades - from Tom Purdie to Christophe Berra - drawing on and increasing game-players knowledge of Hearts, rewarding game-players who have good knowledge, and generating plenty of debate.

Pitchlife is a Collectable Card Game (CCG), with each of the 1200-plus cards featuring a Hearts player and providing statistics and other information about him. As with all CCGs, the concept is to collect and build the best possible deck (the team the game-player builds) through collecting player cards.

Progress in the game is driven by winning matches against similar level players. As matches are won, new cards are made available, allowing the game-player to build better teams, increase their level, compete against increasingly tougher competition, and discover more about the Hearts story.

Boost cards, substitutions and changing team formations allow the player to influence the play, and there are various rewards available. And within the card collecting element, there are series of Magic Moments cards which feature great stories from Hearts history.
