Slay the Horde

BUILD A SPELL ENGINE

Start with a handful of simple spells. End with a build capable of erasing entire hordes.

Slay the Horde combines real-time horde survival with deckbuilding. Every spell you cast comes from your deck, forcing you to work with the hand you’re dealt while building toward combinations that become more powerful — and more absurd — as the run goes on.

BUILD YOUR DECK

Find new spells and shape your deck around the way you want to play. Fill the battlefield with fire, freeze enemies before shattering them, unleash chains of lightning, command undead minions, or combine different elements into something much less reasonable.

Your deck isn’t just a collection of attacks. Card costs, draw speed, mana, elemental effects and the order in which your spells become available all become parts of the build.

STACK EVERYTHING

Spells are only the beginning. Perks and upgrades let you push a build further with more damage, critical hits, elemental effects, summons, mana generation and interactions that feed back into one another.

A simple spell that barely kills a goblin at the start of a run can become the trigger for a chain reaction that clears half the screen.

SURVIVE THE HORDE

Your build is tested in real time against increasingly overwhelming waves of enemies. Position yourself, manage your mana, play the right cards at the right moment, and keep slaying fast enough to stay ahead of the horde.

The goal isn’t merely to survive.

The goal is to break the game.
