11 itemsAbout the Game
In this 3-act game, build a strategic path that earns you various bonuses until you defeat the Act 3 boss and complete your defense successfully. After each Act, carry forward the bonuses you earned into the next stage. Along with the structures provided by blocks, don’t forget to use Totem cards to construct beneficial buildings.
Construct deckforts using Element cards to build your defense line. Don’t forget to stack your Element cards with Upgrade cards and possible combo synergies. As you stack your cards, your deckforts will grow stronger.
As you defend successfully throughout the game, earn treasures and encounter Merchants to strengthen your deck and shape your fate. The right cards will be crucial to your victory.
Before or during enemy invasions, assign strategic priorities to your deckforts. If needed, pull back cards from your deckfort into your deck to prepare for future challenges.
Use spell cards equipped with alchemical power to change the course of battle. Sacrifice your gold for energy, or summon tornadoes to send enemies flying. A wide array of game-changing cards awaits you to shift the tide in your favor.
