Siegehand

About the Game

Siegehand is an early access online collectible card game, with Unranked, Ranked, and Asynchronous battle modes via Arena or Expedition. Collect over 300 cards, build massive war chests and rank up to collect promotional rewards. 

Every turn is a choice

Your workers are your warriors. Send a minion to attack, or put it to work on your Monument. Most minions can attack or build once per turn; special abilities can grant additional actions. Hold the line, break through a defence, or build while your opponent is looking the other way. Destroy their Castle or finish your Monument to win.

Lead a faction. Find your own strategy.

Rally Ashgard’s banners, nurture the Sylvara Wilds, stand firm with the Stonevein Clans, or turn loss into strength with Grimmarch. Choose a Hero, Castle and Monument, then build a 30-card deck from your faction and neutral allies. Attackers, builders, defenders and spells all have a place at the table.

Play powerful, game-changing cards

Find the cards that make your strategy your own. Turn the battle with a well-timed spell, a resilient defender or a legendary arrival.

A rival across the table. A journey on the road.

Face players directly in live Ranked and unranked matches, or practise against five AI difficulties. Expedition and Arena are asynchronous: bring your own deck on an Expedition, or draft a new one for a roguelike Arena run. Face AI-piloted snapshots of player decks at your own pace; generated opponents fill any gaps. Along the Arena road, choose rivals, reforge cards and shape your company at illustrated crossroads before the final guardian.

Build a collection worth knowing

The Early Access Foundations set contains 339 collectible cards, including fifteen promotion rewards. Open five-card packs, discover holographic finishes and choose card backs for your deck. Visit Merric to buy common cards with earned Gold, sell duplicates and seal eligible cards for the online auction house. Promotion cards come from rank rewards, never from packs.

Selected opening sequence; rare reveals are not a typical-pack promise. Each Foundations pack contains five cards with at least one Rare or better. Base draw chances: Common 73.5%, Rare 20%, Epic 4.3%, Legendary 1.9%, Mythic 0.3%. Guarantees and pity can improve these odds; Rare-or-better cards each have a 1% Holographic chance; Common cards cannot be Holographic. Checked 28 September 2026; current and account-specific odds are shown in game.

Win the siege. Claim the War Chest.

Gold spent on cards and Hero powers fills a shared War Chest. The victor claims the chest along with their remaining purse. Consecutive qualifying live Ranked wins increase your win-streak Gold bonus. Expedition and Arena have their own run-progress multipliers. The in-game reward breakdown shows the bonuses and limits that apply.

Climb the ranks

Rise through Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond and Master. Ranked, Expedition and Arena have separate progression, leaderboards and promotion rewards. Earn distinct promo cards at new tiers from Silver through Master once their requirements are met. Chapter-end placement prizes reward qualifying players; the current Foundations chapter has no scheduled end date.

Your deck, your controls

Play with mouse and keyboard or a supported controller. Use the D-pad to navigate menus, the shoulder buttons to switch tabs, and your gamepad to inspect cards and control the battlefield pointer.

Online or offline. Your choice.

Choose online play for live PvP, player-deck opponents in asynchronous runs and the auction house. Or play a separate offline save, synced through Steam Cloud when available, with bot battles, solo Expedition and Arena, earned-currency packs and the Trader. Offline progress never transfers online; multiplayer and real-money purchases are unavailable offline.

Free to play. Optional packs.

Start with two free starter-deck choices and earn Gold and Tokens through play. Gold cannot be bought with real money. Real-money pack purchases are disabled during the initial stability period; earned-currency packs remain available. If enabled later, Steam Wallet purchases will offer packs of random gameplay cards with the same card pool and opening rules as the equivalent earned edition. Paid packs stay on the purchasing account while sealed. They expand your collection and are not limited to cosmetics.

Help shape the game

We expect roughly one year in Early Access, covering the first four chapters. Player feedback and match data will guide improvements to balance, clarity, progression and reliability. Card stats, costs and rewards may change during testing and Early Access. Foundations is playable now; later chapters remain development plans.
