◆ A dark fantasy deckbuilder

Your cards are your character

Every card is a choice. Every wound costs you a card. Find your way out of Hollowfort.

Explore the prison of Hollowfort, build card combos, and decide which faction deserves your loyalty. The cards you play develop your class — and every card you lose brings you closer to death.

How it works

A deckbuilder where your deck is your life

Full combat rules
Damage burns cards⚔ Enemy strikes for 3
Your deck107

There is no health bar. Every point of damage burns a card from your deck, hand or combo. Run out of cards and the game is over.

Health is your deck

There are no health points. Damage removes cards from your deck, hand and combo; when you have no cards left, you lose. The enemy's deck is their health too.

One deck for exploring and fighting

You explore from the same deck you fight with. Every action on the map spends a card, and whatever survives the corridor is what you take into the battle at the end of it.

Loyalty decides the outcome

Anarchists, guards and the sorcerer each want someone dead, and each has a reason you may find convincing.

The five classes

Your cards are your character

Classes are not chosen at creation. You earn class XP by playing cards, unlock improved cards with class levels, and your dominant class decides the portrait.

Factions

Three ideologies, one uprising

Hollowfort was built on a graveyard older than the Kingdom itself. Tonight, the dead rise from beneath its stones — and the foundations of the Kingdom begin to look less certain.

There is more than one way to change the world.

Combat roster

Learn the rules. Then break them.

Early encounters teach the fundamentals of combat. Stronger enemies introduce new defenses and pressures, while elite encounters and bosses push your deck to its limits.

A complete adventure, not a demo slice

One complete passage through Hollowfort: wake in your cell, learn what the cards cost, and walk out through the gate with the ally you chose.

This is the beginning of Grundval, and the beginning is finished.
