Oaken

Fantasy setting

Oaken is a tactical turn-based roguelike with deck building, where positioning and rotating your figurines on the board decides each fight. You gather allies and upgrade cards to restore the song of the Great Oak.

Decktamer

A party of several characters

A turn-based deckbuilding roguelike where you add enemies to your team as cards. Choosing whether to kill or tame them shapes how your deck grows as you descend into the abyss.

Solitairica

Fantasy setting

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.

Necroking

A party of several characters

As a necromancer you build a deck of skulls, raise skeletons and other undead, and conquer life-infested settlements in turn-based tactical battles. A pixel-art roguelite with deckbuilding at its core.

Gem Wizards Tactics

A party of several characters

A turn-based tactics game with randomly generated maps and three odd, asymmetrical factions. You can mix units across factions to invent new strategies, making for endless single-player runs.

Defend the Rook

Fantasy setting

A turn-based tactics roguelike that blends tower defense with board-style combat: you place towers and units to hold off waves of invaders. Every turn rewards careful planning rather than reflexes.

The Ouroboros King

A party of several characters

A roguelike that blends chess movement rules with run-based build crafting: you assemble an army of pieces, collect relics and gadgets, and face three evil witches. Each run plays like a fresh tactical puzzle.

Abalon

Fantasy setting

Abalon blends tactical turn-based battles on a tabletop-style board with roguelike deckbuilding. You pick a summoner, explore a board-game world and refine your deck run after run.

Fort Triumph

A party of several characters

A tactical turn-based RPG where you lead a party of heroes and exploit the environment, such as boulders, ledges and traps, to win fights. A world map with fort building and a tongue-in-cheek fantasy tone round it out.
