Frontiers: Whelming the West 2025

Frontiers: Whelming the West is a Wild West settlement deck-building game by Greg Finkelstein, Wade Green, and Pat Lahey. It combines the strategic depth of deck builder games with the thrill of combat and the fun of designing strong combinations. In Frontiers, players lead settlements against each other, spending gold to recruit Persons, Buildings, and Items to build their fortitude up or strike their opponents’ fortitude down. When you gain 75 or more Fortitude, or bring your opponent’s Fortitude to zero or below, you win!

The game features deep, engaging mechanics that keep every game feeling fun and fresh. Each player starts the game with the same cards and competes to build their decks from a shared pool of new cards. With 53 unique card types, and each card having multiple abilities to combine with other cards in your deck, no two games are the same. Compete to acquire the cards you want while denying your opponent the cards they're looking for in this fun-filled, wild west brawl!
