The Erret Archipelago is comprised of hundreds of islands connected together by huge bridges. These bridges once allowed trade between the islands and prosperity and wealth for everyone. However, times have changed and a cataclysmic imbalance afflicts the archipelago with islands sinking down into the sea on a daily basis. Lord-Sorcerers rule the remaining islands and fight to control the safest islands. As one of these Lord-Sorcerers, you must fight to cross the bridges and take control of the islands of others like yourself.

What Is Clash of Deck?

Clash of Deck is a game for 1–4 players, ages 10 and up, and takes about 15–30 minutes to play. It’s currently seeking funding on Kickstarter, with a pledge level of $30 for a copy of the Base Box and $48 for the Deluxe Box. Clash of Deck was designed by Léandre Proust, published by Grammes Édition, with illustrations by Studio Rexard and Clément Proust. The game features six different play modes: solo, duel, everyone for themselves, cooperative, 2v2, and Legacy.
