How It Works

Four simple steps from sidewalk to championship

01

Spot a Car

See a cool car in the wild? Open GearHead, snap a photo (or pick from your gallery), add a caption, and publish. Your card is created instantly with its location embedded.

02

Upgrade Your Card

Every card starts as Paper. Open sleeves earned from battles or bought with coins to upgrade your card's finish — Metal, Foil, Holo, or the rare Gold. Higher finishes give stat boosts in battle.

03

Build Your Deck

Curate up to 30 cards into a battle deck. No duplicate models allowed — strategy matters. The rarer and higher-finished your cards, the stronger your deck.

04

Battle & Earn

Challenge other players to a best-of-5 stat check duel. Each round, cards are scored on stats like top speed, torque, and handling — plus finish boosts. Win to earn coins.

What You Get

Built for Collectors, Designed for Battles

Every feature connects the physical world to your card collection

📸

Real-World Cards

Every card is a real car spotted by a real person. Cards embed GPS location, make/model metadata, and up to 10 photos in a carousel.

Finish Upgrades

Cards start as Paper. Open sleeves to roll for Metal, Foil, Holo, or Gold finishes. Higher finishes grant up to +10% stat boosts in battle.

⚔️

Stat-Based Battles

Blind-pick, best-of-5 duels. Five random stat categories are drawn each battle — top speed, torque, handling, and more. Your card's finish provides percentage boosts.

🏆

Earn & Spend Coins

Win battles to earn coins. Spend coins in the store on RNG or targeted sleeves to upgrade your collection. The economy is entirely in-game.

🗺️

Location-Aware Feed

Browse cards spotted near you or filter by country. Discover rare cars from around the world and find out where the best spots are.

🃏

Strategic Deckbuilding

Curate up to 30 cards per deck. No duplicate models — every slot matters. Swap cards, plan for specific stats, and outsmart your opponent.

Round 3 — You win! 🏆 (+100 coins on battle win)

1

Create a Challenge

Pick your deck and submit card picks for all 5 rounds upfront. Your picks are sealed — the opponent can't see them.

2

Opponent Accepts

The challenger's picks are locked in. The defender plays each round blind, submitting picks one at a time without knowing what's coming.

3

Rounds Resolve

Stats are compared with finish boosts applied. Each round has a winner. After 5 rounds, the player with the most wins takes the battle.

4

Earn Coins

Win → 100 coins. Draw → 50 coins each. Spend coins on sleeves to upgrade your collection for future battles.
