  • Turn-based combat
  • Fantasy setting
  • Tactical depth

A turn-based deckbuilding roguelike where you fight hellish monsters with different heroes and spells, collect relics to strengthen your deck, and work to rebuild your ruined village.

Deck of Souls

Turn-based combat

A turn-based roguelite deckbuilder with a soulslike flavor: defeated enemies become cards you add to your deck as you loop through runs to close the gates of hell. Dice rolls add an extra layer of tactical risk.

Deliverance & Reign

Turn-based combat

A gothic roguelike deckbuilder where you either lead heroes invading Alaric's Castle or play as Alaric defending against them. Switching between good and evil sides adds variety to runs.

Ring of Pain

Dark, serious atmosphere

A dark roguelike where you pick through rings of cards holding enemies, items and traps in a carefully planned order. Every move is a gamble over sequencing, health and gear, with many unlockable characters and builds.

Luck & Loot

Turn-based combat

A roguelike where you build and upgrade your own dice instead of cards to defeat corrupted enemies in procedurally generated dungeons. Relics change the rules, and the 1-bit look gives it a grim atmosphere.

Runeborn

Dark, serious atmosphere

A dark fantasy roguelike that blends deckbuilding with a slot-machine-style mechanic. You assemble your runebook and combine powerful trinkets to defeat the forces of Despair.

Moonsigil Atlas

Turn-based combat

A deckbuilding roguelike with no energy system, where cards are played through physical space and shape. You slot cards together and reshape them to craft outrageously powerful combos.

Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles

Turn-based combat

A turn-based roguelike where you build a pool of dice instead of a deck of cards. As one of six Oracles, you balance risk and reward to purify corrupted foes and save a fallen goddess.

Slots & Daggers

Turn-based combat

A retro fantasy roguelike set inside a slot machine, where spinning the reels determines your attacks and abilities. Luck and planning combine as you build up your hero run by run.
