Note: This review is based on two sample decks that were provided to me by Fantasy Flight Games at Gen Con. A simple set of rules is provided for players to get started with no experience and a more advanced rulebook fills in the rest of the rules. A player’s deck will not be modified or upgraded as with other CCGs (collectible card games).Ī typical game will last around 45-60 minutes. Fantasy Flight Games states that there are 104,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (104 Septillion) possible deck combinations, pretty much ensuring that every player’s deck will be unique. Using new computer and print technologies, each deck of 37 cards will contain a unique mix of cards made up from 3 of 7 different Houses. KeyForge is being described as the world’s first Unique Card Game. Aether can be obtained during battle, by playing certain cards, stealing from another player, and other methods.

The goal is to obtain Aether that will unlock three keys to win the game. Players use a unique deck to put creatures, artifacts, upgrades, and actions into play. Players take on the role of an Archon, a leader of cast-offs from three unique Houses (seven Houses in all). KeyForge is a card-game for two players from Fantasy Flight Games.
