Aeon's End (2nd Edition)

Aeon’s End (2nd Edition) is a cooperative deck-building marvel where unique breach mage powers and a dynamic turn order system put strategy and tension center stage—perfect for strategic fantasy gamers hunting boss-defeating synergy.

Brace yourself for a high-stakes alliance: noble breach mages defend Gravehold from The Nameless, combining precise deck-building with intense tactical decisions to endure this dark, immersive campaign.

How the Game Works

Take actions by playing gems, relics, charges, and spells from your hand—prep spells into opened breaches and cast them to damage the nemesis or their minions. You win if the nemesis runs out of cards before your stronghold falls.

Unique twist: turn order is randomized each round via a shuffle of cards for players and the nemesis, demanding flexible planning. Mage abilities and card combos evolve as you build your deck against escalating threats.
