Open packs. Discover extraordinary cards. Turn your collection into your next adventure. Chroma is a card collecting game with original illustrated worlds, satisfying pack reveals, and two ways to put your collection into play. Build your Binder, chase rare discoveries, and find the cards you want to show off. OPEN PACKS & FIND YOUR FAVORITES A free pack becomes available every four hours. Choose a collection or mix your discoveries with Combo packs. Earn points through play and challenges to open more packs, and follow your latest pulls as your collection grows. EXPLORE EXTRAORDINARY WORLDS Discover dragons and armored champions in Crown of Horizons, dinosaurs and spectacular creatures in Primeval Dominion, cosmic discoveries in Infinite Frontier, and striking relics in Eternal Imperium. Each collection has its own chapters, artwork, and cards to pursue. CHASE RARITY & MASTERY Collect everything from Common cards to remarkable Legendary and Mystery finds. Crown of Horizons adds Sovereign and Ascendant discoveries, alongside Anomaly cards. Collect more copies to master your cards, complete collections, and earn exclusive Mastery rewards. PLAY CHROMA CLASH Build a 20-card deck from your collection and face three computer opponents with different play styles. Higher rarity usually wins, but Common beats Mystery. Choose your plays, equip earned Power Cards, and race to seven points. DESCEND INTO THE PIT Take your collection into a series of battles. Cards you play are spent for that run, so every floor changes what you have left. Bank your progress at a checkpoint or push deeper to chase exclusive cards and monthly rewards. Your owned collection stays intact. BUILD A BINDER THAT FEELS LIKE YOURS Browse your cards up close, search and filter your Binder, and track what you own, what is missing, and what you have mastered. Use eligible vouchers or the Card Shop to choose specific cards. PERSONALIZE YOUR FAVORITES Trade extra collectible copies above their mastery requirement for Chroma Shards. Unlock reusable card sleeves and equip them on individual owned cards. Sleeves change the look, while your artwork and battle rules stay the same. COLLECT, COMPETE & SHOW OFF Keep your daily streak going, chase Daily Hunt targets, and complete challenges. Climb collection leaderboards and join a fresh Weekly Sprint. Choose up to 20 owned cards for your Trophy Wall and share your collection with other collectors.
