Grim Doom

About this board game

Grim Doom is a two-player card game of magical combat and deckbuilding, with approximately 45 minutes of play time. Each player takes the role of an apprentice of sorcery at the world’s most prestigious magic school.

Victory depends on the spells you choose for your grim moire, the elemental crystals you select, and the strategy you bring to each combat. Building the right collection of magic and making thoughtful decisions throughout the game are central to overcoming your opponent.

The school’s elemental disciplines offer distinct ways to approach the challenge. The dangerous Fire school teaches you to harness its power, while the Water school focuses on controlling your opponents. The Earth school helps you protect yourself, and the Wind school can help you gain an advantage over your rival.

With its combination of spell selection, elemental choices, and tactical combat, Grim Doom presents a focused duel between two aspiring sorcerers. Released in 2018, it invites players to discover which apprentice can turn magical knowledge and careful planning into victory.
