Card-Jitsu Water

Card-Jitsu Water is a spin-off of Card-Jitsu and sequel to Card-Jitsu Fire. The game was confirmed in a trailer posted on the What's New Blog and is members-only. News of this new game was released in late October and in early November. It is said that the big storm was leading up to its arrival.

The Dojo
The Water Dojo in the new Club Penguin Card Jitsu game is hidden in a waterfall. Players enter the room, and like all other types of Card Jitsu, has mats for free play. When you throw a snowball in this dojo, it becomes a water ballon. When you look at where Sensei is sitting, it resembles the Fire Dojo place where he sits.



Game Play
In Card-Jitsu Water, penguins move on a grid of tiles that are floating down a river towards a waterfall. At the head of the river is a gong. Tiles not occupied by a penguin each have an element (fire, water, or snow) of varying size (small, medium, large) on them. Unlike in the previous Card-Jitsu games, penguins do not fight each other. Instead, the objective of Card-Jitsu Water is to create a path to the gong (by clearing tiles and moving onto the cleared tiles) before they fall off the edge of the Waterfall.

At the bottom of the screen, random cards in the player's deck scroll from left to right, meaning that you have a limited amount of time to play a card before cards scroll off the right edge of your screen. In order to clear a tile for your penguin to move to, you must clear the element that is covering the tile you want to move to by playing the element that defeats it (if water is covering the tile you want to move to, then you must play a snow card from your deck that appears at the bottom of your screen; if snow is covering the tile you want to move to, then you must play a fire card that appears at the bottom of your screen; if fire is covering the tile you want to move to, then you must play a water card that appears at the bottom of your screen).

You can throw a card onto a tile that is at maximum ONE square away from you, but you can throw in ANY direction (horizontally, vertically, diagonally). You cannot throw a card onto a tile that is occupied by a penguin.

However, note that the SIZE of obstacle that you target with your card is important. A small-sized water can be typically be cleared by a snow card of power 5-or-lower. A medium-sized water can be cleared by a snow card of power 6-and-up, or by playing two cards of power 5-and-under on it. (Note that you are allowed to play two cards onto the same tile.) A large-sized water is beaten by a snow power card, or (using two cards on the same tile) by a snow card of 6-power and a card of power 5-or-lower. The same power requirement of fire cards to clear snow obstacles, and the same power requirement of water cards to clear fire obstacles applies.

Players win by hitting the gong or falling off the waterfall after every other penguin has fallen off the waterfall. If the gong is hit, then that penguin that struck the gong places 1st - while the closer the other penguins were to the gong, will determine the placement (2nd, 3rd, 4th) of the other penguins. If the gong is hit and two penguins are on the same line, the penguin closer to the left bank of the river will receive the higher placement.

If a player throws a card of an element onto a tile of the same element, the obstacle grows. This tactic may be used to block other penguins that are on adjacent tiles to you (by playing a card to create an obstacle that will be more difficult for the other penguin to clear). Be careful not to block yourself accidentally by throwing a card of an element onto a tile of the same element.

Video
Just like Card-Jitsu Fire, Card-Jitsu Water has a trailer for itself. Here is what the mysterious voice said: "For those who have mastered the ancient art of Card-Jitsu, it's time for a new wave of challenges. Beyond the myth, high above the Dojo, a place of mist and mystery emerges from the clouds. From here, a new Ninja journey begins. Turn the tides on your opponents with patience, practice, power. Reach the Waterfall and discover a new battle. Are you ready to master the element of water?"
