Understanding Vergeway Chapter 1

Before diving into the walkthrough, it’s important to understand what Vergeway is all about. In this mode, players use cards to deploy troops, defenses, and powerful spells to defeat enemies or destroy their Stronghold. Chapter 1 is relatively simple, but it introduces key mechanics and units that will become vital in later chapters.

Stage-by-Stage Breakdown

Stage 1: Tutorial Stage

• Starting Aether: 25
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy the Enemy Stronghold
• Enemies: Arrow Tower, Sword Squad, Fencer

This stage is straightforward and acts as an introduction. Just follow the on-screen instructions, deploy your troops, and easily take down the enemy Stronghold.

Stage 2: Basics of Deployment

• Starting Aether: 25
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy the Enemy Stronghold
• Enemies: Arrow Tower, Sword Squad, Fencer

Here, you’ll unlock Axel, the first officer you can deploy. Position him with a Sword Squad, and victory will be yours. If you want to speed up the destruction, deploy an additional squad.

Stage 3: Introducing Fireball Spell

• Starting Aether: 25
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy the Enemy Stronghold
• Enemies: Arrow Tower, Sword Squad, Bow Squad, Huntsman

This stage introduces the Fireball card. To clear the level, simply cast two Fireballs at the enemy Stronghold. You can also place a defense tower if necessary. After this stage, Verge chests will be available, so start opening them to get more cards.

Stage 4: Mix of Offense and Defense

• Starting Aether: 30
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy the Enemy Stronghold
• Enemies: Arrow Tower, Sword Squad, Bow Squad, Cavalry Squad, Bot Boy

Stage 5: Strategic Defense Setup

• Starting Aether: 30
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy the Enemy Stronghold
• Enemies: Arrow Tower, Sword Squad, Cavalry Squad, Ballista Squad, Cannon Train

Stage 6: A Balancing Act

• Starting Aether: 30
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy the Enemy Stronghold
• Enemies: Arrow Tower, Sword Squad, Bow Squad, Cavalry Squad, Death Knight

• Starting Aether: 30
• Stronghold Health: 1000
• Objective: Destroy All Towers
• Enemies: Sword Squad, Cavalry Squad, Arrow Tower, Fire Tower, Blazing Obelisk
