About this game

INFINITUM 120+ Card expansion is now live!

Dive into the dark fantasy world of the Shattered Realms and join the battle against evil. Build your deck as a cunning rogue, a brutal warrior, or a mysterious Seeker wielding arcane magic. Or create your own class and play as who- or whatever you want to be! Start playing today, collect cards and create a unique deck with access to over 300 cards and see how far your deck will take you into the corrupted lands of Umbris.

⚔️ STRATEGICALLY CHALLENGING
With a number of puzzle-like card battles, every step of your heroic adventure offers new tactical choices to improve your deck-building strategy. Collect cards that match your playstyle, avoid disastrous events and build your strategy before the forces of evil overwhelm you.

🛡 RPG TAKE ON CARD GAMES
Dawncaster offers unique card battle mechanics to even the most veteran of deck-building card game players. Though most of the gameplay should feel familiar, the ability to combine RPG class mechanics into deck building, weapons, enchantments, and its unique energy system are exciting additions to the card game genre!

☠️ VENTURE INTO DARKNESS
Discover the mystery of the missing ‘Dawncaster’, a hero of legend who has been lost in the corrupted realm of Umbris. Use your deck-building skills to slay monsters and explore the darkest depths of a desperate world through handcrafted illustrations, and dialogue, and shape its future through your choices.

⭐️ ACCESS TO ALL CARDS & CONTENT
Dawncaster is offered as a complete card game. You get access to all cards, classes, and content with your purchase. There is no need to buy packs or tokens or waste time on timers or ads. Future content will be offered through expansions at the same, single price per adventure kind of deal.

🎮 ROGUELITE GAMEPLAY
With randomized encounters, unique classes, and choices to explore, playtime could easily reach the tens of hours for those that enjoy a roguelike card battle challenge! Additional difficulty options are available for those that seek to push the limits of their strategic insight (and/or luck).

This is a very well thought out game. It has a ton of content and replayability. I played deck builders before and I kind of new I liked the genre. This game took showed me how great a deck builder can be. I've been playing for a couple of months now, and I still haven't explored all the possible builds. I like the progression system, the story mode and the gauntlet mode. I'd like to say "very well done" to the developers.

One of the best games I have played on phone, love that they release some new cards and talents for free and not have all updates behind a pay wall. The variation of deck types and theme per class is quite a bit and keeps it interesting, and I love that different classes get different interactions with events. Update 2/28/24 Still playing as loving it!! They have continued to add new content both paid level DLCs and also lots of new cards got free! A hidden gem and so under rated.

I really hate giving 5s, but there's actually nothing wrong with this game. I wish I could examine the field behind popover lists, and I guess I wish it had a manual save - not for cheesing, but for when I'm not sure how a card works. Great art, lots of love from the devs, some truly wild card keywords, everything is fantastic, minus a few ultimately minor QoL issues. It's pricy especially with expansions, and that hurts on mobile, but I've absolutely gotten playtime value back and then some.
