About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey there, Westeros fan! Get ready to dive into the intrigues and battles of Game of Thrones: The Card Game, the streamlined and accessible version of the famous LCG, based on the epic HBO series. Here, two players face off in a strategic duel, controlling the powerful Houses Lannister or Stark, each with its own fixed fifty-card deck. The goal? To dominate the battlefields of Westeros and plot your opponent's downfall at the court of King's Landing.
Each deck is packed with the series' most iconic characters and locations, such as Eddard Stark, Cersei Lannister, Robert Baratheon, Littlefinger, and Jon Snow, all faithfully illustrated to transport you directly into George R.R. Martin's universe. The big draw of this edition is that it takes the complex rules of the original 'A Game of Thrones: The Card Game' and makes them leaner, making the gaming experience super inviting for anyone who wants to enter the world of thematic card games without being overwhelmed. If you enjoy a good card battle, with plenty of strategy and the excitement of Game of Thrones, this is your game! It's time to choose your side and fight for the Iron Throne.
