About This Game

In these lands, the arts of magic are forbidden. Those who practice them are hunted and killed.

These mages seek shelter in the forgotten places, where few dare venture and the magic of the wilds still blooms bright.

As one of those hunted few, you must make a stand and ascend to untold power, before you are slain.

Beyond the Threshold is a fantasy card game about building your powers as a mage through casting spells, building projects, and summoning minions.

In Beyond the Threshold you position your minions to gather five resources: insight, mana, crystals, wood, and corpses. You then use these resources to fight off perils and invest them into casting spells and building projects. Spells have one-time effects, like destroying hazards or summoning more minions. Projects take multiple turns to complete but have even stronger effects, many of which are permanent. A constant stream of perils and events will force you to adapt your strategy each game.

Four mages to play

The Prophet - hears the voices of the powers beyond and spreads their word to gather countless followers. They have no qualms about sacrificing those followers to summon forth powerful but unpredictable higher beings.

The Artificer - is a master of metal and magic who seeks to combine science with technology. They manufacture specialized automatons and then repair and upgrade them to build a powerful economy.

The Druid - is a student of life and nature who can build a band of helpful animal companions. Animals can’t act on their own but each one makes the druid even stronger.

The Necromancer - is a student of death and the dead who can summon and buff armies of zombies. They waste nothing and recycle their units to regain some of the resources spent.

Each mage has a unique ability and deck of cards. You can unlock two additional decks for each mage.
