Golem Gates

Golem Gates is set in a barren land scarred by ancient wars. You play as the Harbinger, an outcast who can command nanites from The Ash, a power present in the atmosphere. When warrior machines emerge from Golem Gates, the Harbinger takes up arms against the golems and seeks to uncover the fate of their long-lost creators.

The game combines real-time strategy with card-battle elements. Its available formats include a single-player campaign, solo challenge scenarios, single-player and co-op Survival, local matches against bots, and online matches against other players.

Gameplay and features

• Build a Glyph deck: Collect Glyph cards representing forces and powers, then assemble a deck before battle. The 100 Glyphs include units, buildings, traps, buffs, debuffs, and technologies; randomized drawing varies the available choices between battles.
• Deploy and manage forces: Create forces and enhance them with Glyphs without building production or research facilities. Capture resources in King of the Hill style, with no dedicated gathering units.
• Play Glyphs across the battlefield: Glyphs can be played almost anywhere you have an existing presence. Turn a scouting party into an army, add forces to a fight, set emergency defenses, or conceal an outpost; opponents can also destroy forces with the right Glyph.
