Most Fantasy Card Games Stay in the Castle
Fantasy card games have plenty of castles, dragons, forests, and ancient temples. Science fiction card games have starships and chrome. But the frontier — dusty roads, saloons, bounties, sheriffs, bad odds, and one last shot at sundown — is still wide open.
That is where Goblins & Gunslingers TCG lives.
Gunpowder and Magic Belong Together
The Wild West and fantasy both run on danger. One has quickdraw duels, outlaws, gold rushes, and frontier towns. The other has strange creatures, old magic, cursed places, and impossible heroes.
Put them together and you get a world where goblins build scrap cannons, desert devils stalk the heat shimmer, and a gunslinger might have a spell tucked into the chamber. The Wild Frontier lore page lays out that world.
The Setting Changes the Cards
In Goblins & Gunslingers, the western-fantasy identity is not just paint on top of a normal card game. It shows up in the mechanics (the keyword glossary defines every one):
- Quickdraw makes the fastest fighter strike first.
- High Noon turns a card entering play into a dramatic moment.
- Cover Tokens make board position feel like a shootout.
- Overshot lets excess damage blast past the first target.
- Double Barrel lets one threat fire twice.
- Last Stand means some cards are dangerous even when they go down.
Goblins Make Everything Better/Worse
The goblins are exactly as safe as they sound. They salvage, steal, weld, light fuses, and ask questions never. Cards like Goblin Grenadier, Mad Bomber, Scrapheap Tinkerer, and Ratchet Rocketrider are built to make every match feel like something is about to explode.
From Kickstarter to the Card Table
The physical card set went to Kickstarter in May 2026 for MicroMay. Today its starter decks and boosters are on pre-order in the store. The digital game is free in your browser and on Steam in Early Access.
