Iron Ledger is a strategic deck-builder where you defend your town against waves of enemies. Cards you don't play become your army. So, every card in your hand is a decision. Play it to build. Discard it to fight.

How It Works

Each turn:

  • You receive 5 cards from your deck
  • Play cards will add add/upgrade buildings in your city
  • Remaining cards are discarded and become soldiers
  • Your army fights the incoming wave
  • Each victory earns new cards for your deck

Factions

  • Merchant Guild — gold wins wars. Build an economic engine and outscale the enemy.
  • Iron Legion — fewer soldiers, harder hits. Make every unit count.
  • City Watch — strength in numbers. Your hand becomes the army.

Progression

Survive 30 waves of increasingly harder enemy waves. Boss battles are at rounds 10, 20, and 30. Mini-bosses are at 5, 15,& 25.

Status

This is an early prototype to test the core play/discard mechanic. Art and balance aren't final.

Fun but short

Congrats on the launch!

Thanks 🤍

Nice game! It has a nice learning curve at the beginning i struggled getting past round 7.
After a while i got something right, a balance between defence and building, and my last run improved so much after round 20 it got so easy i just started building everything available.
I enjoyed a lot.
I'd loved to see an ending page with more statistics.

Yes! I was thinking of trying a similar screen to Broforce, when it replys all the defeated enemies in a row, wdyt?

this game is fun,but it needs balanceing.

hi dogfish, thanks for playing! yes, will work on it
