About the game
Call to Adventure: The Stormlight Archive is a standalone hero-crafting game set in Brandon Sanderson’s epic universe. With 120 cards, you build a unique character by defining their origin, motivation, and destiny, overcoming challenges to gain traits and abilities. It blends strategy with storytelling—imagine a narrative-driven deck-builder where every card you add to your tableau weaves part of your hero’s journey. While there’s a point-based winner, the real highlight is the finale where players share their character’s tale. Playable solo or with up to 4, it’s accessible even to those unfamiliar with the books (though fans will geek out over the details!).
