The Star of Vaelthorne, shattered into four golden shards drifting apart in a starry night sky

Vaelthorne Shard Quest

A solo adventure card game from The Shattered Star of Vaelthorne. Journey the four lands, befriend their creatures, win back the four Starshards — and face Vaelgorath, the Hollow Star Dragon.

How to Play

  • Quest through four lands in order — Emberwood Vale, the Drowned Archive of Thaldris, the Skybound Isles of Zephyra, and the Cindervault Forge. Each land deals you a deck of encounter cards.
  • Face each card your way: Fight with Might, outwit or slip past with Wits, or befriend with Heart. Roll the d20, add your stat — meet or beat the card's difficulty to succeed.
  • Befriended creatures become Allies who travel with you, lend you their gifts, and stand beside you at the end.
  • Fate cards in your hand can heal you, boost a failed roll, or force a reroll. Treasure and rest cards keep you alive.
  • Clear a land's deck, then face its Guardian to claim its Starshard. With all four shards in hand, climb to the Hollow Star and face Vaelgorath in three phases — destroy him, or try to redeem him.
  • If your health reaches zero, the quest ends. Choose your hero wisely.
