About the Game

Between Wars, knights met in Tournaments to prove their skill.

Tournament is a classic playing card game for 2 (or 4) players where Knights (and Squires) play cards across nine Events of Speed, Accuracy, and Strength, each with its own test. Win the most Events to claim victory.

Tournament builds on the familiar card game War by adding meaningful player choice. Instead of relying solely on high card wins, players must adapt to shifting Event goals that reward speed, accuracy, and strength.

The result is a faster, more tactical experience with far less downtime. A full match plays out over three quick rounds of about a minute each, rather than the prolonged race to capture every card that can make traditional War drag on for 30 minutes or more.

A classic playing card game is needed to play.
