How to Play
Objective
Reduce your opponent's HP (hearts) to 0 before they defeat you. The first wizard to land a finishing blow wins.
Resources
HP (hearts) keeps you alive. Mana (💧, max 5) powers chanting and active skills. Energy (⚡, 2 per turn) pays for playing cards.
Turn Flow
At the start of your turn you draw 2 cards, regain 2 energy, and any chanted card becomes ready. At end of turn, keep at most 4 cards (discard down if needed).
Card Types
Curse — deals damage (needs SP check). Spell — utility & counters. Charm — enchantments & effects. Mythic — powerful unique cards. Weapon & Item — equips granting bonuses and extra energy each turn.
SP Check
Most attacks require a Spell Power check: roll 2d6. If the total ≥ the card's SP (adjusted by weapons, items, counters, and chants), it hits. A double-6 is a Spell Crit — draw 2 cards!
Chanting
Pay 1 Mana to place a non-Spell card face-down in your chant slot. Next turn it becomes ready. Playing a chanted card triggers its chant effect (often SP reduction or bonus damage) and may ignore its energy cost.
Countering
When an opponent targets you, respond with a counter card — Teleport (dodge), Barrier/Dominium (raise SP), Finite/Luxvallarus (nullify), or Echo (reflect). Counters can be played from hand or a ready chant slot.
Character Skills
Every wizard has an Active Skill (costs Mana, used on your turn) and a Passive Skill (triggers automatically). Visit the Character Skill page to learn each wizard's abilities.
Power Gauge
Your Power Gauge charges as you battle: miss an SP check (+30%), land an SP check (+15%), roll a Spell Crit (+50%), lose 1 HP (+30%), each unused energy at end of turn (+15%), or discard a card in the discard panel (+15%). At 100% the gauge converts into 1 Power Point (max 3). Spend Power Points to summon Signature Cards from your Signature Deck.
Signature Cards
Signature Cards are special Curses, Charms, Spells and Mythics summoned with Power Points during your turn. Everyone starts with the Force scroll for free. Earn Magic Crystals by battling, open bonus chests after victories, and buy more scrolls in the Shop. All owned scrolls are automatically active in battle — open the Signature Deck (⭐) to summon them.
