Against The Moon is a turn-based strategy where chthonic monsters will challenge your tactical skills.

Featuring a bleak post-apocalyptic setting, Against The Moon mixes elements of popular trading card games like Slay the Spire, Hand of Fate and Talisman to create an epic strategy experience with a thrilling plot and unique visual style.

Having lost control of the planet to weird beasts of their own creation, humanity’s last survivors took refuge in an ancient citadel. Now the superhuman Ultori represent mankind’s last hope. Lead a squad of powerful Ultori to defeat the Furos, the nightmare creatures of the Moon, and restore humanity as the rightful rulers of Earth.

Craft your own deck, upgrade your cards and level up your characters to combat bizarre and dangerous opponents. Crush enemy bosses, build your forces and gather the resources you need to challenge the Moon itself!

In Against The Moon you manage a squad of superhumans struggling against the invasion of chthonic monsters. Each hero has their own ultimate ability that will help you turn the outcome of the battle and save the intelligent city of Arx. By the way, in this game you are the intelligent city of Arx with your own ultimate.


Fight on three separate battle lines, but beware: you can’t kill everyone on all lines at once, you'll need to sacrifice something. You have the greatest heroes of humanity in your army and each can be upgraded in one of two directions. In addition, you control a great number of creatures: luma bots, reptiles, beasts, people and creatures of unknown origin. Each creature has its own strengths and can also be upgraded based on your playstyle.

The whole planet has risen up to fight back the invasion and begin one final battle Against The Moon!

May Great Mother Arx bless your mission. You are our only hope!
