Welcome to Manacaster
Manacaster is a 1v1 fantasy card battle game where strategy and skill reign supreme. We aim to bring back the vibe of old school card gaming, with balanced game-play and no pay-to-win: just buy the game, get the full set of cards. Wishlist now on steam, and prepare for tabletop cards later this year!
Reignite Old Rivalries
With precision-balance and fast-paced combat, Manacaster is designed to satisfy your hunger for tabletop violence, deception, and strategy. If you feel nostalgic for the feeling of battling friends at the kitchen table, slinging monsters and spells until the early hours of the morning, this game is for you.
Launching Soon

How To Play
Construct a deck of 50 Units and Actions and a separate deck of 13 Mana cards as resources, then dive in! Units are used to attack and defend, while actions can strengthen your forces or destroy enemy troops. Players can never stop an action or unit from being deployed, but they always get a chance for a rebuttal, as each player can only take one move at a time like in chess.
Plan Your Strategy
In Manacaster, skill leads to victory.
Players get to craft their opening hand
from a set of options, and both players
deploy a Mana resource of choice every
turn (up until turn 12), ensuring that
strategic decision making is more
important than the luck of the draw.
Inflict Massive Damage
Each of the elemental types in Manacaster possesses powerful Keyword abilities. Use Keyword combinations like Twinstrike and Heavy to push through extra damage, or Parry and Extract to deflect damage and gain Life Points. Click here to see the full list of Keywords and the rules!
