WHAT IS ESTRO?
ESTRO is a strategic 1vs1 card game with compressed pixel graphics, set aboard the Apollo Nephilim, a flagship adrift in a sci-fi horror universe. With 255 cards split into 5 classes called Estri — Ardo, Granito, Armonio, Illusio and Manpo — every match is a tactical clash where you build your deck, fight across 5 game zones and dominate the field.
Each Estro is a type of creature that reacts differently to the others: the interactions between Estri define your strategy. Every card has 5 stats — ATK, DEF, HEL, DEX and MAP — that determine its role in battle. Players strategically pick cards from their deck, place them in the zones and resolve combat using a smartphone as digital support or traditional dice.
ESTRO is not just a tabletop game: it is part of an expanded narrative universe that includes the lore of the Apollo Nephilim, an encrypted language called Anticlari, interactive text adventures and a community wiki. Created in Italy, it is available at shop.estro.games with shipping across the entire European Union.
