About this expansion

A Game of Thrones: The Card Game – The Tower of the Hand is a 60-card expansion installment for 2–6 players, with an approximate play time of 60 minutes.

Based on George R.R. Martin’s best-selling A Song of Ice and Fire saga, this 2009 release is the third monthly installment in the King’s Landing expansion for A Game of Thrones: The Card Game. It is designed to augment existing decks and add variety to the game’s metagame.

The set contains three copies each of twenty different cards. Every card is a never-before-seen addition, giving players a fixed collection of new options to explore while building and refining their decks.

  • 60 fixed cards in total
  • 20 different card designs
  • Three copies of each card
  • For 2–6 players
  • Approximately 60 minutes per game

The Tower of the Hand takes its name from the seat of the Hand of the King, described as the second-most powerful man in the Seven Kingdoms—an office involving the king’s voice, armies, and laws. The title’s setting connects this card release to the political world of the saga.

It forms part of the six-installment King’s Landing cycle, alongside City of Secrets, A Time of Trials, Tales from the Red Keep, Secrets and Spies, and The Battle of Blackwater Bay. For players seeking new cards for existing decks, A Game of Thrones: The Card Game – The Tower of the Hand offers a focused and carefully defined addition to the cycle.
