Behind the game
About Celtic Clash
Celtic Clash is a physical card game inspired by the heroes, creatures, relics and storytelling traditions of Irish mythology and folklore.
Legends in Your Hands
The Celtic Clash deck brings legendary Heroes, supernatural Creatures and powerful Relics together in a fast card battle.
But the names and stories on the cards come from a much larger tradition.
The Celtic Clash Companion was created to take players beyond the cards — revealing more of the mythology, folklore and real Irish places connected with the world that inspired the game.
More Than a Rulebook
Use the Companion to explore every card in the base deck, discover extended stories, learn how to play and visit real places across Ireland associated with the legends.
Where mythology, folklore and archaeology overlap, the Companion aims to make the distinction clear — celebrating the stories without presenting legend as historical fact.

The original Celtic Clash deck brings together figures and objects drawn from across Irish mythology and folklore.
Rooted in Ireland
From Emain Macha and Rathcroghan to the Hill of Uisneach, Tory Island and the landscapes of the Fianna traditions, many Celtic Clash stories remain connected with places that can still be explored today.
The Explore Ireland section brings those connections together while recognising the difference between archaeology, medieval literature and later folklore.
The Cards Come First
Celtic Clash is first and foremost a physical card game.
The Companion is designed to enhance the deck rather than replace it — giving players rules, stories and places to explore while keeping the battle itself on the table.
