Now, Cards of Eternity: The Wheel of Time from Aether Games delivers a captivating gameplay experience that brings this magical world to life in a thrilling new way.
Cards of Eternity: The Wheel of Time is a digital trading card game that’s every bit as epic as the books it’s based on. It blends nail-biting strategic battles, gorgeous CGI art, and a powerful AI assistant, taking the genre to the next level.
“Aether Games is honored to have been selected by iwot productions as the exclusive digital card game licensee for a franchise as renown and cherished as The Wheel of Time,” explains Aether Games CEO Jens Peeters.
Iwot’s Larry Mondragon, the producer on Amazon’s The Wheel of Time series, is equally excited about the game. “Cards of Eternity will offer fans an opportunity to experience this celebrated fantasy-fiction narrative in an entirely new way. Players won’t just witness the story, they’ll become an integral part of it,” he adds.
Cards of Eternity: The Wheel of Time boasts solo play and PvE modes campaign modes, but its appeal goes even further. Players can craft their own cards, boost them for that all-important edge, and even buy, trade, sell, and rent them, thanks to Aether’s trading card system.
While Cards of Eternity’s players can team up with The Wheel of Time’s heroes, they’re not limited to being the good guys. They can ally themselves with multiple factions, including the Forsaken and the villainous Shadowspawn, molding their own tale through strategic turn-based card combat.
Cards of Eternity’s AI assistant adds an extra, RPG-style dimension to the game, using iwot productions and D1srupt1ve’s One Power technology. A real game changer for trading card games, players can take it to the next level with a One Power subscription. The storytelling possibilities are endless.
With tutorials, skill-based matchmaking, and more, Cards of Eternity: The Wheel of Time is, despite its depth, as accessible to newcomers as it is to strategy veterans. Aether’s platform allows for additional content including timed events and new modes, which promise to give Cards of Eternity: The Wheel of Time real staying power.
