About this game

Shardbound is an immersive, multiplayer collectible tactics game packed with rich lore, deep strategy, and cutthroat competition. Set in the lush Axis islands floating above the earth’s core, players must craft mind-bending card decks to outwit opponents and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Embark on an epic quest to preserve the bonds of the Lifeweave and uncover the secrets of the Shards.

Long ago, humanity had incredible magical talent and Chromacite technology by our current standards. They lived on a “normal” terrestrial world with several large continents, oceans, and the like. But that all changed...with the Worldbreak. A catastrophic event occurred. The world shattered, creating the geography we live with today. Humanity survived, but most all technology was lost and the old ways of life forgotten. Tribes formed, separated across the different islands. Eventually, air travel was (re)discovered, and a world culture was born again. The Weaver Wars - A period of prolonged warfare occurred between the different weaver-aligned cultures of the world. Eventually, the Convokers were able to strike a decisive enough victory to establish the Imperium and usher in the modern era. For many generations, the Imperium has ruled successfully and mankind has flourished. While the world has seen peace in the sense that there haven’t been military clashes spanning the entire world, conflicts between ideologically misaligned Houses are not uncommon. When these do escalate to open conflict, however, they have generally been reigned in by Imperium peacekeeping forces before engulfing the world in warfare. Suddenly, Queen Aurelia dies under mysterious circumstances. Shards begin falling from the sky. And this is where your story begins, Rangers.
