About This Game

Blightwinter is a dark medieval town-building deck-builder.  Assign townsfolk to regional structures, build your fall deck, and balance survival against an encroaching plague. Will your settlement endure, or crumble to disease and shadow?

Seasonal Cycle

  • Recruit arriving townsfolk in Spring

  • Construct buildings and assign workers in Summer

  • Draw from your assembled deck in Fall to face events, collect resources, and endure Winter

Push-Your-Luck Mechanics

How far will you push your draw each year?

Risk pulling plague cards, vermin, and dark events to gain the extra resources needed to keep your populace alive.

Building-Driven Deck Construction

Completed buildings paired with assigned townsfolk contribute cards to your annual deck.

From crops and coins to dark rituals and plagues.

Distinct Medieval Regions: Each with unique gameplay pools

  • The Lowlands: Pastoral farmlands focused on kinship and abundant harvests.

  • Holyreach: Sacred grounds of faith, tithes, and sanctuary.

  • The Old Burgh: A bustling center of commerce, coins, and crowd management.

  • The Black March: A dangerous, bog-choked borderland where necromancy and dark extraction reign.

  • Wayward Lands: Randomized building pools for endlessly dynamic survival runs.

Villagers with unique Traits & Afflictions

Every citizen features procedurally generated suits (Food, Gold, Faith) and game-altering traits. Harness hardworking townsfolk, or manage infected, superstitious, and undead villagers.
