About the game

Master the Deck & overthrow the King in this roguelike tabletop deckbuilder featuring strategy, dice and a little luck. Dominate suit-based combat with strength-boosting dice, or recruit and use unique heroes, powerful wizards, and legendary knights.

Original Steam description

Cards of Bellum is a War-inspired roguelike deck builder. Lead your poor army of rebels, unlock powerful heroes, counter suits, and unleash spells in your quest to overthrow the evil king and claim victory.

LEAD RULE-BREAKING HEROES

• Wizards duel by elemental mastery (Fire beats Death, Water beats Fire)

• Assassins strike randomly from the shadows

• Kings can reverse defeat

• Thieves steal your opponent's best cards, or a named hero unleashes special abilities

Use your cards wisely — a wasted hero can mean the difference between victory and defeat.

MASTER SUITED COMBAT

Swords beat Spears. Spears beat Horse. Horse beats Shields. Shields beat Swords. But when strength is close, roll the dice and a lucky 4 could save you.

SHAPE YOUR ADVENTURE

As you progress across the map, unique events will shape your journey. Choose wisely, as past decisions can trigger future events..

60+ UNIQUE CARDS

From numbered troops to Knights, Queens, Kings, Wizards, Thieves, and more. Build your strategy. Find your combos. Claim victory.

The throne awaits. So does the axe.
