Description
Short
A free cross-platform card game: fifteen heroes, five factions, singleton decks, a weekly ladder and a draft mode, playing across Steam, Android and iOS on one account.
Long
Tales of Ember is a digital collectible card game made in Poland. Decks are thirty cards and singleton, so no card appears twice and every draw is a different decision. Fifteen heroes are spread across five factions, ten of them combining two factions, which sets what you can build before the first card is played.
There is a weekly ranked ladder that resets on Sunday, a curated draft mode where a limited pool keeps the format readable, campaign puzzles, and community tournaments with prize codes.
Its rules engine and card statistics derive from OpenSky, the open-source release of the code behind the discontinued game Skyweaver, re-implemented on a different engine.
