Looking for a really good deck builder? We've created a list of the best deck building games 2022.
What are deck-building games?
In deck-building board games, players play cards from their deck. By playing, they try to acquire new cards and thus gradually improve their deck more and more. The challenge is to skillfully combine the cards with each other.
