Shadowrift is a cooperative deck construction game. Each player has his own deck, representing his heroic skills and abilities, but all of them are using those abilities to work as a team and fight off a horde of slavering fiends that want to burn down a town.
If the town burns down, catches plague, or explodes, the heroes lose.
If the heroes are able to fight off the monsters long enough to construct defenses for the town, or if they venture into the dark and seal the Shadowrifts with powerful spells, they win.

What makes Shadowrift worth your time?
- What kind of hero do you want to be? In Shadowrift, you decide how your skills develop and grow from a generic adventurer into a crafty rogue, noble knight, raging barbarian, or any combination of skills you desire.
- They have a plan. No two games of Shadowrift are the same. Part of the reason is that every faction of monsters has its own strategy, which means the heroes can't always win the same way.
- Talk it through. Like any good cooperative game, Shadowrift keeps you talking with your friends: figuring out who needs healing, who can hire new guards for the town, and how to attack the monsters for maximum effect.
- Always hard enough. Shadowrift has millions of scenarios to play with a wide variety of difficulty, allowing players to challenge themselves whether they're new to the game or hardened veterans.
