The Forsaken Realms v1.00
The first public release. A free, standalone single-player adventure card game built on the
Forge card-game engine: five rival colors wage a slow war for territory while you build towns, raise
your Capitol, manage Wood/Stone/Gold/Shard economies, research new card expansions, and fight
through hundreds of rotating dungeons — with a full Forge rules engine underneath.
1,500+ enemies · 330+ dungeons · 33,000+ cards to find · 640+ items
