Mistborn: The Deckbuilding Game (BGM849)
Based on Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn novels, this deckbuilding game takes you to the world of Scadrial. Take control of characters from the series and "burn" metals to unlock Allomantic powers.
Each turn you buy cards to build and improve your deck. Each metal has its own strengths: damaging opponents, earning mission points or helping allies. Win by defeating your opponents in Allomantic battles or by completing a series of missions first. Play head-to-head, or take on the Lord Ruler in solo or co-op mode.
