Collectible card game now features characters and locations from Archer series.

San Diego, CA (September 22, 2022) — Kongregate, creators of the beloved web gaming platform Kongregate.com is celebrating the sixth anniversary of Animation Throwdown: The Quest for Cards, a free-to-play card collecting game with over 10 million downloads. Initially launched in 2016, the game includes characters from 20th Television’s Family Guy, Bob’s Burgers, Futurama, American Dad, and King of the Hill.

The update will introduce hilarious character content with new taunt phrases from the Archer characters, including, “Sorry, I can’t hear you over the deafening sound of my own awesomeness!” Users will enjoy new missions, quests, and cards inspired by fan-favorite Archer moments from episodes like Honeypot and Placebo Effect, as well as new islands featuring art they’ve never seen before during the month-long anniversary celebration. The recurring event Swole Club will be redesigned as Fort Kickass during Archer’s introduction to the game.
