SolForge was a free-to-play digital collectible card game by Stone Blade Entertainment. The design team included Magic: The Gathering designer Richard Garfield and Pro Tour hall of famer Brian Kibler.[1] The game was released in May 2016 following three years in early access.[2] In January 2017, Stone Blade announced that the game would be shutting down that month,[3][4] however, an agreement was later reached with two executives from Grinding Gear Games, but not the studio directly, keeping the game online.[5][6]

The game's servers were still online in 2018, however, updates to the official client ceased so the fan community developed an unofficial client to address bugs and add features called ReForged (formerly KUSC). It had an Android and iOS version that could play matches with players using the official client. In December 2018, it was announced that Stone Blade had asked for the unofficial client to be shut down, and in January 2019 both the official server and the unofficial client were discontinued.[7]

The official client is still available on Steam as of October 2019,[8] however has been removed from mobile stores.
