Mahokenshi is a unique blend of adventure, deck-building and deep hex-grid strategy.

Create your deck, out-smart your enemy, battle challenging demons and adventure through the Celestial Islands to protect your home from the forces of corruption.

Mahokenshi is a potent combination of deck building and hex-grid strategy that intertwines the deep tactical play of card games, with the strategic turn-based thinking of board games. As Mahokenshi - a Samurai Mage from one of the Celestial Isles’ four houses - players will need to protect the Kingdom against an encroaching corruption. Through strategy, positioning and tactics, they will need to utilise over 300 lovingly illustrated cards to explore the world, vanquish powerful demons and banish the evil that plagues the land.

Brimming with challenge, Mahokenshi’s new development approach invites players to feedback their experiences, participate in development discussions and explore a vibrant world filled with quests, cards and formidable foes, all to restore peace to the Celestial Isles one hex at a time.


Debuting an open, community-lead development approach, Mahokenshi's preview can be downloaded now on Steam, with its Early Access set to launch in Q1 2022.

  • Become a Powerful Samurai Mage: Travel the beautiful lands and build your card decks, wielding blade and magic to protect the floating Celestial Islands from powerful foes who seek to corrupt them. Evolve your character with every playthrough, and become the Mahokenshi the world needs.
