Every booster box opened, every seat pulled up to a table at a local game store, every event attended with friends old and new. These are the moments that make Sorcery what it is, and Dust is our way of saying thank you to the players and stores who make them possible.

What Is Dust?

A loyalty system for all types of Sorcery fans, Dust allows players to unlock exclusive promos, playmats, and more simply by participating in events on the Sorcery Play Network and by opening and authenticating booster boxes.

How to Earn Dust

Dust can be acquired primarily in two ways.

Every Sorcery booster box includes a unique scratch-off code on the bottom. Scan the QR code or visit sorcerytcg.com/authenticate to enter your code, verify your product's authenticity, and unlock a grant of Dust.

In addition to being acquirable through purchased products, Dust can also be earned through participation in in-person events hosted through the Sorcery Play Network. The program is built to celebrate local play: the joy of gathering at your game store, meeting fellow Sorcerers, and sharing the game face-to-face.

In addition to being acquirable through purchased products, Dust can be earned through participation and achievement in events on the Sorcery Play Network. Participating in learn-to-play events, casual meetups, and tournaments will unlock Dust rewards, while additional Dust can be earned through top placement in events.

What Can I Unlock with Dust?

Dust can be used to purchase items from the Sorcery Play Network’s Reward Store, from exclusive alternate-art promo cards to playmats available only through dust, and more. Some rewards are limited to one per account, and we love dropping the occasional surprise into the store, so it’s worth checking in regularly.

Visit the Sorcery Play Network Rewards shop to see what treasures await you. Shipping and handling costs apply to reward orders and may vary by location.

How Do I Start Earning Dust?

Log in to the Sorcery Play Network. Your account is shared across sorcerytcg.com, Curiosa.io, and the Sorcery Play Network, so one login works everywhere. From there, browse upcoming events near you, find a participating store, and start playing. That's it! Dust will take care of itself.

For Stores

If you are a store looking to host events, you’ll first need to submit an Organizer Application. This allows your location to host events for players to earn Dust and be found on the Sorcery Store Locator. Once you’ve logged in, click on the drop-down menu and select the Organizer Application to get started with the process!

Thank You

The Dust program exists because of you. The enthusiasm, creativity, and warmth this community brings to Sorcery every day are something we are endlessly grateful for. We hope Dust is a small but meaningful way of giving something back.
