The Studio & the Game

About Goblins & Gunslingers

Goblins & Gunslingers is a free western-fantasy trading card game where magic meets gunpowder on the Wild Frontier — built in the open by an independent studio, and playable right in your browser.

Free to Play

A Western-Fantasy Card Game, Free in Your Browser

Goblins & Gunslingers (GNG) pits eight frontier factions — Humans, Goblins, Desert Devils, Straw Elves, Gnomes, Dwarves, Golems, and Beasts — against each other across open battlefields where magic and black powder collide.

Duels play out across 5 Middle Lanes and 2 High-Rise lanes with two resources working against each other: Mana ramps every turn, while Gold rewards aggression. Each player starts with 30 HP and a 52-card deck plus 2 Deputies. Win by reducing your opponent to 0 HP — or decking them out.

The full TCG is free to play in your browser: 529+ cards, the Frontier Run roguelike campaign, online multiplayer, a deck builder, and booster packs. Optional purchases include Dust currency, booster packs, and the Wild Frontier RPG sourcebook. New to the game? Start with the how-to-play guide.
