Description

A brand new trading card game experience with a rich story.

In Argent Saga, players take on the role of a Champion who leads an army of Units and casts powerful Spells to destroy their opponent’s five Towers of Power and ultimately taking over the sixth tower, the Argent Tower.

We created Argent Saga to give the power back to the community by engaging with our players on an intimate level. Between our unprecedented level of community involvement and our team’s combined experience of over 100 years in the game business, we aim to avoid the pitfalls of our predecessors and create the next big thing in card gaming.

Argent Saga: Trading Card Game is the result of countless hours of playtesting and devotion to one central idea: Let’s make a game that’s fun, easy to pick up, and that can react quickly to player feedback. We’re not a huge company with corporate overlords to please; we started small and have grown because of the community. In many ways, Argent Saga is a love letter to that community.
