One Deck Dungeon

Turn-based combat

A digital take on the tabletop dungeon crawler where you use dice and cards to clear dungeon floors, beat monsters and traps, and level up your hero. Short, tricky runs built around risk management.

Right and Down and Dice

Turn-based combat

A roguelike dungeon crawler on card grids where you can only move right and down, using dice tactically for combat and abilities. Planning your route and combining artifacts cleverly is the core of the experience.

Backpack Hero

Turn-based combat

A roguelike where packing your backpack is the puzzle: item placement, adjacency and synergies determine your offense and defense in turn-based fights. Each run brings new builds and routing decisions across the map.

Solitairica

Turn-based combat

Solitairica fuses classic solitaire with roguelike combat: clearing cards charges your spells and damages enemies while you build up a hero with items and abilities. It all comes wrapped in a tongue-in-cheek fantasy tone.

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.

Dice & Fold

Strong character progression

A turn-based dungeon crawler where dice rolls are your only weapon, used to knock enemy cards into folding. With a Solitaire-inspired table, deck building and 20 classes, it blends luck and tactical planning.

Pawnbarian

Turn-based combat

A puzzle roguelike where you play chess moves as cards to fight through tiny dungeon boards. Every turn rewards careful planning and clever card combinations.

Archon Soul

Strong character progression

A 2D roguelike where you build dice instead of decks: swap faces, runes and bodies, draft spells and chase synergies to conquer the Archon's palace.
