How co-op works
Players jointly control up to four breach mages against one automated Nemesis, sharing Gravehold’s survival and a common card market. They preserve each deck’s discard order, prepare spells in breaches, support allies, and adapt purchases and defenses to the randomized turn order.
About this game
Aeon's End is a cooperative deck-building game in which players take on the roles of breach mages defending the last bastion of humanity, Gravehold, from monstrous entities known as the Nameless. Unlike traditional deck builders, this one never requires you to shuffle, creating a strategic layer where you control your draw order and plan turns with precision. It is pure cooperative teamwork against escalating boss threats.

Players acquire new spells, relics, and gems to strengthen their mages while managing their breaches (conduits for powerful magic) and coordinating attacks. Communication is essential because every decision impacts the group's survival. Timing your big spells, healing teammates, and countering the Nameless's attacks together keeps the tension high and rewarding.
Local couch co-op and single-screen play let you gather around one device and strategize face-to-face. Steam Remote Play Together extends that to online friends. Sessions demand careful planning and constant table talk, making every victory feel like a genuine team effort.
