Dynasty Heroes is a free-to-play digital collectible card game based on the background of the Chinese Three Kingdoms period. Different from complicate battles of other card games, DH stands out from the rest by focusing on the idea of One Hit or Nothing. This magnificent period was one of the bloodiest in Chinese history. The Han royal house declined when the eunuchs abused the sovereign and officials subverted the government. With a huge peasant uprising which called "Yellow Turban Rebellion" break out in China, a whole dynasty was ripped by warlords. You, as a warlord seeking for unification, shall recruit heroes, improve yourselves and fight for people!
