Your cards. Your rules. Your game.
Make the cards
That card in your head? Make it real.
Create monsters, spells and traps with your own artwork, stats, types and rarities. See the card take shape as you work.
Give it an effect with visual controls for triggers, targets, costs and actions. Draw cards, destroy a threat, boost a monster, recover life points, set a trap—or combine effects into something of your own.
Save reusable effects in your library and apply their generated wording to your cards.
Choose your adventure
Just duels? A story? A whole world?
Pick the starting point that fits your game.
Pure Cards
Get straight to the card battles, collecting and deck building. Keep the focus on your next great duel.
Classic Style
Create a cast of rivals, dialogue and cutscenes. Build a dueling journey with challengers and rewards.
Overworld
Paint maps, place characters and build events. Let players explore your world and challenge the duelists they meet.
Build your game
More than a card maker.
Decks with a plan
Build player and opponent decks, use Extra Decks and authored Fusion recipes, and check decks against your game’s rules.
Packs worth opening
Create booster packs, choose rarity slots and preview the results. Add pack shops and rewards to your progression.
Your own rulebook
Choose summoning tokens, tributes, growing mana or no resource cost. Adjust life points, phases, field slots and placement limits.
Opponents with personality
Build decks and configure AI profiles for your challengers, from an early rival to a tougher final opponent.
Make it move
Build animations from cells and add sound, flashes and movement. Give your card plays and attacks their own style.
Make it yours
Bring your own artwork, music and sound effects. Customize card presentation, card backs, portraits, text and player screens.
Set the table
Your arena, not somebody else’s.
Arrange the field and HUD in the Game Board Designer. Position portraits, hands, life points and resources, then preview your layout. Keep the board flat or give it a perspective view, with an optional action camera for attacks and activations.
Go beyond the board
A world full of people to duel.
Build towns, routes and interiors with a layered map editor. Add dialogue, choices, switches, variables and duels using the visual event system.
Use the built-in Character Creator to put together walking characters, or import your own sprites. Give each rival a place in the world.
Make it. Test it. Share it.
Start with one card. Keep building.
- Learn inside the editor. Guided lessons walk you through cards, effects, decks, rules, packs, stories and events.
- Play as you build. Test a duel, a map or your full game. Project Check helps you find setup problems.
- Share a Windows game. Export a standalone playable game folder and ZIP, with your project’s artwork and audio.
You’ve got a card game in your head.
