About This Game

A war over slots

Deck of Dynasties is a war over slots. Nine civilizations send their greatest historical figures onto the board, and there is exactly one way to win: kill the enemy leader. The leader is a card standing in the centre of the home row — it can be killed, it is not a health bar.

The board is the fight

Each side holds five home slots and five front-line slots. While the enemy front line holds, you can only strike the front line; break it and the home row opens. The figure that lands a kill walks into the enemy's slot and holds it — a mutual kill leaves the slot empty. Damage is permanent and never heals between turns, so a single exchange can decide the match. Every card may act once per turn, and deploying, attacking, moving, retreating and retaking all spend that card's own Action Points.

Two ways to duel

  • Journey: server matchmaking, a shared VS screen, ready confirmation and a five-second countdown.

  • Friend duels: invite a Steam friend in one click — no room code, no port forwarding.

Arena events and progression

  • Free-form, elimination, round-robin and league events, with real fixtures, rounds, scores and rewards generated by the server.

  • 333 base cards plus 126 expansion cards — 459 in total, across nine civilizations and nine classes.

  • 111 starter cards, plus multiple 45-card decks you can build and save.

  • Daily check-in, playtime, collection and tournament points are all recorded and synced server-side.

  • 41 Steam achievements covering civilization sets, class sets, win streaks and levels.

  • Eight interface languages, switchable in-game with no restart.

  • Six AI difficulty tiers for practice, from Apprentice to Marshal.

Stable online play and reconnects

Matches stay in sync through lockstep commands and state-hash verification. Reconnect within 45 seconds to resume the same match; after the grace period the server decides the result.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Generative AI Disclosure

Generative AI tools were used during development to help create parts of this game's content:

1. Card artwork: Character illustrations on the cards were generated with an AI image tool using text prompts only, then selected, cut out, composed and finalized by our team. The AI generation label is kept on the cards and is visible at the bottom-left corner.
2. Text & Localization: The in-game multilingual translations and the store page copy were produced with AI assistance and reviewed by our team.
3. Store & promotional assets: Created from actual in-game footage, which includes the AI-generated artwork described above.

This game does not generate any AI content at runtime, and does not connect to any external AI services during gameplay.
