In a world torn by civil war, mercenary organizations struggle to protect the people from an onslaught of monsters. As the new director of one such Hero Company, your mission is to take up this fight and become one of the foremost Guardians of Kelthas.

Prepare for battle in a powerful but easy-to-use deck construction system. Take along heroes, managers, monsters, equipment, and rituals from previous competitions, or purchase new cards by spending the Guild Credits your company has earned. Balance your deck by reviewing the statistics or trying it out in a practice game.

Explore the Nine Kingdoms of Kelthas, each of which presents new opportunities for a strong and well-balanced company. But consider the terrain and location carefully! A deck that works well in one province may not perform as well in another.

Compete with up to five computer or human opponents in single-player, hotseat, or online play. Choose from a variety of gameplay modes, including story-based Campaigns, corporate alliances, and free-for-all battles. As your cards grow in experience, their abilities evolve, resulting in more effective and powerful teams over time.
