Artifacts & Trolls | Artist-Designed Card Game – Illustrated Edition | Proyecto Ensamble

VISUAL STRATEGY, BETRAYAL AND AUTHOR-DRIVEN DESIGN IN A FAST-PACED CARD GAME.

Some games are made to pass the time. Others are built to test your instincts, adaptability and, perhaps most importantly, your alliances. Artifacts & Trolls is a fast, competitive and highly visual card game created by Proyecto Ensamble, turning game night into a constantly shifting tactical battle.

The goal is simple: be the first to complete your secret objectives before the game turns against you. As you collect distinctive characters and fantastical mechanical artifacts, every decision matters and every turn can completely change the balance of the game.

FAST-PACED, INTERACTIVE GAMEPLAY

Designed for players who enjoy quick strategic challenges and direct interaction, Artifacts & Trolls combines several layers of gameplay:

• Objective Management: Choose the right goals and balance risk against reward as you work toward victory.
• Artifact Recruitment: Character cards become living artifacts that can change the flow of the game, helping your progress or disrupting your opponents.
• Troll Sabotage: Deploy unexpected creatures and obstacles to slow your opponents down just when they are about to win.
• Fluid Pace & High Replayability: A streamlined structure keeps the game moving, with tense turns and momentum that can change hands at any moment.
