There are several differences between the Face Card games and the Number Card games. Unlike the Number Card games, the Face Cards are announced before they commence. This way, the players are aware of which game they are joining, unlike the Number Card games where they only learn after registration is closed.

The most interesting thing about the Face Card games is that survivors will need to compete against "citizens" or people who have chosen to stay in the Borderlands after previously completing the games.

For now, it is unclear if the series will feature all 12 Face Card games. However, it is certain that the first game played in the manga will also be the first one we'll see in the Second Stage.

The King of Clubs is the first game played on Day One of Exhibitions and it is hosted by one of the most interesting characters in the manga. The King of Clubs immediately presents a complex game to the survivors and without giving away too much, there will be major casualties.

Alice in Borderland Season 2 has not yet been given an official release date. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
