About the Game



Stormbound's unique gameplay combines the positional awareness of chess with the resource management of a collectible card game. Push for control of the board while minimizing your opponent's options.



Novel gameplay combines your favorite aspects of collectible card games with the tactical strategy of board games. Play cards from your hand to the game board and then watch your units march on the enemy base.




Battle players around the globe in head-to-head battles. Use in-game emojis to congratulate your opponent on a hard-fought game or rub a devastating board clear in their face.



Choose one of four kingdoms and build out a deck leveraging powerful synergies between your units and spells. With an ever-shifting meta, can you craft the deck that stands out above the rest?




Collect dozens of cards, all with unique and powerful abilities, to craft your deck. With positioning being so key, there are endless possibilities for valid deckbuilding strategies.



Immerse yourself in the rich world of Stormbound, as four kingdoms struggle for dominance. Construct a deck of unique and powerful cards and then dive into real-time battles against other players.
