Olden Era

Olden Era ($OEM) is a browser PvE card-battler with a real economy. The game is live: gold, cards and $OEM come from winning fights, what you earn stays yours, and deposits and withdrawals are open.

You take one commander and nine creatures against ten citadels, from Runestone to the Sun Temple.

Your warband. Thirteen commanders and twenty creature classes. Energy belongs to the card rather than the account and refills in full every four hours — a second warband gives you a second campaign to run alongside the first.

Your risk. Three sorties lead into every citadel: Raid, Siege and Onslaught. The harder the sortie, the bigger the payout, up to three times over, and your odds are measured and shown before you commit. You cannot touch the enemy commander while his retinue still stands; on top of that come crits, blocks, volleys from your ranged creatures and three spell slots. No time to fight? Auto-battle plays it out for you.

Between fights. The forge sharpens gear and fuses three cards into one stronger card. Crews go out on four expedition routes and into four mines, from six hours to a week — the bigger the crew, the richer the haul. The Well pays in summons, and Guardians earn while they stand watch.

Pandora. One Warden stands for everyone, and the pot grows with every strike bought: 500 $OEM for two, 1100 for five. Your share of the pot is your share of the damage, and every strike carries a chance at a unique artifact.

Raffle and quests. A post about the game on X or Telegram is a ticket, a YouTube video is worth five, and up to ten prize places are drawn every week. Add three daily quests and three weekly ones, with a seal and a chest. Referrals pay across three tiers: 5%, 3% and 2%.

Coming next: the open market and the Crown Tournament.
