Throne of Cards Officially Out on Steam

Throne of Cards released on Steam on 20 August 2026 from Hidden Universe Games. It is a survival deckbuilder where, as the studio puts it, a handful of cards can become a kingdom.

Cards that stack into a civilisation

You stack and combine cards to gather resources, discover recipes, construct buildings, train soldiers and prepare your realm for what is coming.

The progression is concrete: begin with a few basic cards and grow them into farms, workshops, mines, fortifications and a working economy. There are more than 300 cards to discover, with a Recipe Book to fill as you find new combinations.

Discovery is the progression

Filling a Recipe Book means the game rewards experimentation rather than following an optimal path handed to you. That is a meaningful distinction in the deckbuilder space, where most designs give you the tools and ask you to sequence them well.

Here the question is what combines with what — closer to a crafting game wearing deckbuilder clothes.

Built for unhurried play

The accessibility set fits the genre properly: Playable without Timed Input, a playable-at-your-own-pace designation, Save Anytime and custom volume controls.

No timed input on a strategy deckbuilder is the right call — decisions should be considered. Save Anytime suits a game you dip into across long sessions. Steam Achievements are included.

Fifteen screenshots and broad localisation

The listing carries 15 store screenshots — a substantial presentation that suggests a developed build rather than an early one.

Localisation covers English, French, German, Spanish and Japanese among others. The build is Windows only. Steam genre tags are Indie, Simulation and Strategy.

Ten seventy-nine at launch

Throne of Cards is on Steam at $11.99. The launch discount has ended and this is the standard price, verified on 6 September 2026.

Eleven dollars for a deckbuilder with 300+ cards and a recipe-discovery layer is reasonable, and the kingdom-building framing gives it an identity distinct from the combat-focused deckbuilders that dominate the genre. If you like the moment a new combination unlocks something you did not expect, that is the whole appeal here.
