第一章The heart of the system
Your deck is your energy.
You do not ask chance whether you can be extraordinary. You decide when to use your resources, when to save them and how far you are willing to push. Played cards become Fatigue: reach the end of the deck and you collapse.

Choose
Your hand is not a random result: it is the set of possibilities you chose to keep.
Spend
Every card you play fuels the action and becomes Fatigue. The more you dare, the closer you move to your limit.
React
A clash is not a turn you simply endure: defenses and counterattacks can change the scene.
Combine
A Primary Card and support cards build combinations that can make a Technique unforgettable.
Easy to begin, rich to customize: depth comes from decisions, not from a wall of rules.
第二章Everything you need to cross the Gate
One bundle. A whole world ready to play.
The Hero Bundle is built to remove the friction between discovering the game and bringing it to the table. Choose your language and begin with the core rules, the official deck and a home for the experience.

- 01Declare the Technique
- 02Choose your card
- 03Face the reaction
- 04Complete the combo
You do not wait for the die to decide for you. You decide.
第四章Your isekai begins with a choice
You do not play an archetype. You are reborn as your hero.
Start with an immediate idea and let it grow as far as you want. Gates of Krystalia gives you a clear framework without taking away the freedom to create someone who truly feels like yours.
Build your style
Techniques, skills and blessed suits turn your choices into a personal way of acting.
Grow within the story
Bonds, consequences and new abilities let the hero evolve alongside the campaign.
第五章Beyond the battle
You don't just play a battle.
You live a second life.
Forge, build, bond, set out even on your own. What other TTRPGs leave as a footnote, Gates of Krystalia turns into real rules with a place at the table.
01 Crafting
The best loot is the one you forge.
Gather wood, stone, ore and fish, then turn them at the forge and the workshop into weapons, potions and items no chest will ever give you.
- Forge
- Alchemy
- and much more
02 Kingdom Building
From a single field to a capital.
Found your Kingdom, place every structure, trade along the routes and watch it rise in rank session after session.

03 NPC Relationships
Every bond is a power.
Friendships, rivalries and romance have a value: the higher it grows, the more that NPC fights and lives at your side with real bonuses.
- Relationship value
- In-game bonuses
- Romance
04 Solo Mode
No group tonight? You still get to play.
Turn on Solo Mode in the virtual tabletop: enemies pick their own cards, time passes while you sleep and the adventure waits for you, even alone.

- Day and night
- Guided adventures
