Gwent: Rogue Mage

Gwent: Rogue Mage is a single-player expansion to GWENT: The Witcher Card Game. It combines roguelike, deckbuilding and strategy elements with GWENT’s card-battle mechanics. You follow the young mage Alzur and his companion Lily on a dangerous quest to create a living weapon capable of eradicating the monster threat.

Alzur’s quest

Centuries before Geralt and other witchers roam the Continent, the Conjunction of the Spheres brings endless ranks of monsters into the world. Alzur and Lily set out to find a way for humanity to fight back and survive.

Battles and spells

Battles last one round, so you need to use every available tactic to help Alzur withstand the monsters. He begins unable to respond to the opponent’s final card play, but campaign progress and high-end bonuses let you take control of the battle flow.

Alzur can spend energy each turn to cast powerful spells from his expanding Grimoire. You replenish energy between battles by visiting Places of Power or through random encounters on the map.

Runs and difficulty

After Alzur completes his first two experiments, Curses become available as flexible difficulty modifiers. They add variety to each run and offer a greater challenge.
