About Duelyst GG

✦ AI summary

Duelyst GG is a hybrid card and board game where you assemble a deck, summon units, and cast spells onto a tactical grid to outmaneuver opponents across six factions with unique generals. With all 800+ cards unlocked and cross-platform play on Steam, iPhone, and Android, it delivers competitive depth through strategic positioning and thoughtful decision-making.

A UNIQUE CARD GAME / BOARD GAME HYBRID
Assemble your deck and play units and spells onto a board. A game that focuses on thoughtful decision-making and strategic positioning.

All cards Unlocked

All 800+ cards are unlocked, ready for you to use. Pick from 6 factions with distinguishing characteristics and different generals with unique Bloodbound spells.

Highly Competitive

Face people in Ladder 1v1 or draft a deck and fight in the gauntlet. Apart from Steam, Duelyst GG can be played on iPhone and Android all using the same account. Fight across platforms!

Gameplay focused

While Duelyst GG is fully functional on the gameplay front, we are still working on the UI and User experience. New features are added at a rapid pace. Soon we plan on releasing a roguelike deck builder for single player too.

For those who played the original Duelyst:

Duelyst GG was written from scratch based off the last patch. From there we have balanced and added new cards. This means 1 draw and Bloodbound Spells are in. But old bugs like broken Vale Ascension and annoying ddos decks are out.

✦ AI summary

Duelyst GG brings back the strategic board play and card interactions that fans enjoyed from the original, with all cards available without grinding and an engaging soundtrack. However, players note the small player base makes multiplayer difficult, and while the AI provides some entertainment, it has limited deck variety and doesn't fully replace competitive play. Most reviews suggest it's worth trying for fans of the original or those interested in tactical card games, though the thin matchmaking pool is a significant limitation.

I've missed Duelyst. I've enjoyed the music, Sarlac the Eternal, and playing with my friend. Scarzig backstab is brutal.

Recommended Jul 18, 2026

It's a fun game. I don't know what else i can say. The card interactions are interesting. The strategic board play is interesting. But the obvious thing is nobody is playing, so you can have some fun playing the ai. I wish the ai had more decks. Then it would at least be a fun PvE and I don't know how power creeped the cards are since i haven't played much pvp it's a cool game. I wish there were more games like this
