Coming from Flaregames and Well Played Games, Warhammer Combat Cards is a new card game for mobile set in the war-torn universe of Warhammer 40,000. It is available right now for both Android and iOS.
Warhammer Combat Cards is actually a digital remake of Citadel Combat Cards, a classic physical card game released all the way back in the late 80s that is extremely popular among the Warhammer community. Its theme revolves around the eternal conflict at the core of the 40k universe, and it also features several familiar characters as well.
This mobile adaptation sports a massive roster that includes every faction of Warhammer 40,000. Not only that, but even more cards are promised to arrive in future updates too. Meanwhile, the main draw of the game lies in the interaction between these factions. For instance, you can pair mighty Warlords with Bodyguards to create a well-rounded deck.
The developers have also added plenty of time-limited story campaigns for players to get into. According to them, these will pose a challenge to even the oldest veterans. Additionally, to maintain a level of freshness, all of the events will have you play different decks associated with different factions. As a result, don’t expect to be able to rely on just one strategy for everything.
The intense battles are complimented by magnificent soundtracks composed by acclaimed music producer Gareth Cousins, who previously worked on plenty of Hollywood films including Batman Begins and Gravity.
While it’s clear that the game’s primary audience is fans of the Warhammer franchise, it looks like it could also appeal to the more casual card game enthusiast as well. Warhammer Combat Cards is now up for grab for free on both Google Play and the App Store. Since this is a free game, ads and IAPs are to be expected.
