Description

Shadow Era is a fast-paced and strategic card game that drops you into a fantasy world where shadow creatures have invaded the realm of mankind. As a powerful character on either side of the conflict, you'll battle it out against your opponent using a customized deck of cards. With easy-to-learn rules, you can dive right into the action, and with a playtime of just 20 minutes, you can fit in a thrilling match whenever you want. The game was designed by James Bowie and Sebastian Chedal and first published in 2012, and its unique blend of hand management and variable player powers has made it a hit with fans of collectible card games. In Shadow Era, each deck is built around a hero card with its own special abilities and hit points, and your goal is to reduce your opponent's life to zero before they can do the same to you. On each turn, you'll sacrifice cards to build resources, which you can then use to play cards, summon allies, or unleash powerful spells and abilities. With 200 cards to collect and master, you'll need to stay on your toes and adapt your strategy to outmaneuver your opponent. Whether you're a fan of fantasy, fighting games, or just love the thrill of competition, Shadow Era is the perfect game to add to your collection.
