That’s exactly the idea behind Tyrants.In the game, you build a deck of 8 cards from a pool of more than a hundred, then set out to conquer six rival empires in intense 5–10 minute battles.Tyrants will officially release in version 1.0 on April 29.If the project sounds interesting to you, the best way to support us right now is by adding the game to your Steam wishlist.
