What is this place?

Death’s Door is home to nomads, foot soldiers, void-walkers, unicorns, spellcasters, sand worms, and giant sea leviathans.

It’s also a podcast and email newsletter devoted to talking about the latest news, innovations, and topics about Sorcery: Contested Realm.

What is Sorcery: Contested Realm?

Great query! Sorcery: Contested Realm is a trading card game that launched in 2022 by the company Erik's Curiosa.

Players battle for control of the realm (a 5x4 grid) with the help of an avatar, creatures, spells, powerful artifacts, a changing landscape, and more. The game hinges on old-school magic and fantasy themes, worldbuilding, and imagery.

We are not affiliated, sponsored, or paid by Erik’s Curiosa, Sorcery: Contested Realm, or any of the game’s creators.

So, who are you?

Death’s Door is operated by two long-time friends John and Brontë who have spent years playing trading card games, roleplaying games, board games, and other tactical games.

We also have combined experience in media, communications, fantasy writing, and editing, making this channel a perfect place to combine skills and hobbies.

Why start a podcast in the year 2024?

We want to build a community of Sorcery: Contested Realm players who are devoted to fun, competitive, and innovate deckbuilding, as well as insightful commentary, strategic thinking, and an inclusive play experience.

We like winning. We don’t care for cave trolls.
