An art creator on your PC
Infinite generation, without spending a single credit
Inside WilderDecks lives an AI painter that works on your own computer. Give it a name and it hands you back a brand-new illustration. And another. And another.
No cap
Paint every card you can think of. There’s no daily limit and no balance to run out.
Zero credits
No credits to top up and no monthly fee. The only thing it uses is your PC’s electricity.
Your ideas stay home
Everything is painted on your computer. Your ideas never travel to a server.
Your own style
Switch the drawing style and watch the same idea transform.
Each illustration takes a little time, depending on your hardware.
The forge: how a card is born
Forge your card in 4 steps
The forge is the heart of WilderDecks. You bring an idea, and the tavern turns it into a card you can play in that very match.
1Name it
Write whatever comes to mind: a dragon afraid of heights, your family heirloom. If you like, pick a creature type too.
2Your PC paints it
Your own computer starts painting the illustration right away. Meanwhile, the match goes on.
3Choose from 4 versions
Four cards appear with your idea, each with its own trick. Look them over, think about your move and keep yours. None of them feel right? You can ask for others.
4Signed and dated
Your name and the date are written on the card. Win, and you can take it with you.
No fixed catalogue
In most card games, someone has already printed the full list, and you keep buying packs to complete it. Here, that list doesn’t exist. Every illustration is painted when you forge the card, from whatever you imagined.
Names, themes and mechanics can repeat. What’s new every time is the illustration, and you choose the card.
Why WilderDecks
A table where your ideas get to play too
Every win is a choice
Winning doesn’t get you everything: only some of the cards you forged stay with you. Some choices hurt, and over time your deck ends up looking a lot like you.
A tavern on your own PC
Rain on the window, fire in the hearth and one more match before bed. Play solo against computer rivals or open the table to other players online.
Your cards are yours
Earned at the table. Never sold to you.
There’s no card shop here. Your collection grows with what you imagine and what you win at the table.
It carries your signature
Every card keeps the name of whoever forged it and the day it was made. When it comes back to your hand, you’ll know where it came from.
It stays in your decks
The cards you choose when you win are saved in your decks and come back with you to the next table.
Losing doesn’t take it away
A bad night leaves you no new cards, but it doesn’t take away the ones you brought. They’re still yours.
No packs, no subscription
You pay for the game once. There are no random packs and no fees to keep playing with your cards.
The signature records where a card came from; it doesn’t stop someone else from forging something similar.
Inside the tavern
Your table is waiting.
Painted landscapes stretch across the felt. Heroes take their places, vassals stand beside their cards and, across the table, someone is already eyeing your hand.
Come in from the rain. The Deck and Bed is waiting. 
Griffin Captain in four versions: the same griffin, with a different type, cost and ability. 
“New cards” paints a new illustration and draws four new sets of abilities. 
Take a close look before you play it. You can also save the illustration or the whole card. 
The match begins: your hero against your rival. 
Your turn: forge your card first, then play. 
Combat: lightning strikes as the vassals clash. 
Nine vassals attack at once. 
The One Coin: keep it through an enemy turn and you draw an extra card at the end of each of your turns. 
The spoils: choose up to 2 cards for your deck. The rest go back to the forge. 
Win the table: gold for your purse and the best of tonight’s forge. 
Pick your next rivals. Four tables on, a boss is waiting.
Development screenshots. Interface and presentation may change before release.
Behind the magic
The imagination is yours. The brush is your PC.
When you name a card, an AI living on your own computer paints it right then and there, and writes some of the tavern’s text too. Nothing goes off to the cloud, and there’s no album of drawings waiting in a drawer. What the card does at the table, though, is never improvised: it’s built so every match stays fair and winning comes down to how you play.
More about the generated art- However wild your idea, the card plays fair: nobody wins by dreaming up the most outrageous name.
- In WilderDecks Epic, your online rivals see your cards just as you do: the same table for everyone.
- A filter keeps an eye on what gets painted. It isn’t perfect; if something slips through, let us know.
