21 Jun

Do you love deck-building games? Or maybe Gwent's rules and mechanics caught your attention while playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt or Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales? Either way, you’ll soon find out that the card game set in The Witcher universe is not only fun but also highly captivating. Here are a few things you should know before you start playing:

1. GWENT has simple rules, yet… the devil is in the details

Three rounds, two rows of cards, and one winner – sounds easy, right? Yet each deck of cards enables the player to create a unique winning strategy.

2. The game gives you a choice between 6 unique factions

You can play heavily armored Northern Kingdoms or more attack-oriented Skellige. Nilfgaard and Syndicate thrive in cunning intrigues. You can also choose Monsters and Scoia’tael with lots of special cards and abilities.

3. You can upgrade your deck by acquiring or crafting new cards

By winning rounds, you receive ore that you can use to buy kegs with new cards for your deck. On the other hand, you can also decide to recycle unwanted cards. This will give you so-called Scraps you can use to craft new cards.

4. The game gets even more interesting as you advance

Determination pays off in GWENT: The Witcher Card Game. Once you reach level 10 on your account, you’ll be able to play games on the ranked ladder. Playing here gives you the opportunity to get competitive and access special rewards (e. g. Meteorite Powder) to make each game even more fun.
