Empire is a two-player Trading Card Game in development in Copenhagen.

In Empire, you play as a commander striving to build a powerful civilization and assert your dominance over contested territories, capturing the essence of classic RTS games within a TCG framework. Pivotal decisions include when to draw resources and when to draw action, which of three lanes to send your forces into, and whether to deny your opponent or further your own game plan.

Factions

There are 7 factions in Empire, each of which has unique abilities and playstyles. You can choose to play a single faction for a streamlined deck, or combine multiple factions to create more complex combos and synergies.

Amali

The Amali have stretched their dominion far across the realm, relentless in their expansion. Yet beneath their iron grip, discontent simmers, and a rising rebellion threatens to unravel the ambitions of the capital’s elite.

Kyushima

The arrival of foreign foes on the isolated shores of Kyushima has shattered the centuries-old feud between the Kitsuda and Tazoguchi families. But even with a common enemy at their gates, peace remains an elusive prize, as old grudges refuse to die.

Horudjet

Horudjet has thrived under the reign of Anan-Khunaten XII, a ruler beloved by his people. Now, as the time draws near for him to ascend to divine status, his younger brother, Sekhemne, conspires not just for the throne, but to reshape the kingdom’s very destiny.

Lyria

Centuries ago, the shining city stood as the center of commerce and knowledge of the known world, but assailed from without and corrupted from within, the city fell. Now the shadows grow long in Lyria. Petty robber-barons vie for power and the procession of the Undying queen march ceaselessly across the lands.

Ndembe

The sudden sprouting of the mother tree, Amma, has brought with it a kinship between the beasts and the people of the forest. Yet with this awakening, the forest grows ever larger, demanding more from the Ndembe to safeguard its sprawling reach.
