the architects are calling...

YOU’VE ARRIVED AT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE where the vast artifice known as The Crucible attracts the exiled, abandoned, or simply mislaid civilizations and creatures of the ageless matterverse.


This is the domain of the enigmatic Archons, ethereal beings that seek to plumb the Crucible’s strange Vaults for that which they desire more than anything: the very secrets of creation. 


To open these Vaults, the Archons must forge Vault Keys from the powerful substance of Æmber. To do so, they need guile, courage, and most importantly, allies from among the strange denizens and creatures stranded on The Crucible.

KEYFORGE was designed by veteran designer Richard Garfield who has designed some of the bestselling card games of all times (Magic: the Gathering, Netrunner, KeyForge, King of Tokyo and many more). 

MY KINGDOM FOR ÆMBER!

In KEYFORGE each player takes on the roles of an Archon seeking gather enough Æmber to first forge three vault keys and win the game. To play, each player will need one Archon Deck of 36 cards, comprised of cards from three different Houses (factions that dwell in the Crucible). These cards represent the minions, actions, artifacts and other elements of the Crucible that each Archon controls.


There are many interesting and special houses in the Crucible, such as the beasts and magic of the wilderness in House Untamed, the stygian demons of House Dis, the scoundrels and thieves of House Shadows, the devious traders of House Ekwidon, and many more.

A GAME UNLIKE ANY OTHER

EVERY DECK IS UNIQUE!

KEYFORGE may be the most unique game ever created.  Every deck that a player purchases is unique in the world. This is made possible by the magic of the software engine behind KEYFORGE and modern digital printing. 


Once a player buys a deck, that deck may be scanned on the KeyForge Master Vault to track Master Vault ownership of the deck, and to enable the deck for play in official KeyForge tournaments.
