"Poker is intrinsically fun and deeply complex. It's great for deckbuilder games, but it’s underused” Co-Founder of First Day Entertainment, Stephen Gou, says. We wanted to fill that gap so we made Heroes of Magic & Cards."

Heroes of Magic & Cards is due to release a new demo on Steam November 5th, upping the ante for Steam players - and roguelike deckbuilders - everywhere.
