About this game
Build a deck of heroes, weapons, and spells, then dive into a dungeon to slay increasingly powerful monsters. Thunderstone Advance refines the original Thunderstone into a smoother deck-building experience where buying village cards and fighting dungeon monsters form the core loop. Light penalties in the dungeon create risk-reward decisions, and the advancing thunderstone adds urgency. A fantasy deck builder that captures dungeon-crawling atmosphere better than most.
