Deck of Ashes is a procedurally-generated story-driven deck-building turn-based RPG with a unique twist: players must explore the world as they track down powerful cards in order to forge a powerful Battle Deck.

There is an ancient evil lurking in the shadows — one that only you can rid the world of!

Before the fateful event known as the Ash Curse, the Rogues had been the most dangerous gang out there. The whole world despised them and they were not hesitating to return the favor.

They had been relentlessly killing and plundering with no mercy to the rich nor to the poor. Spoiled by their luck, gold and impunity they quickly delved into the deep of madness. Then the Rogues wished to obtain the most powerful artifact – the Ash Box. Their search brought them to the Valley of Death. However, once they were so close to the artifact no one agreed to share it with others! One of the Rogues managed to grab the box but it slipped out his hands and shattered on the floor. The cloud of Ash raised to the skies poisoning and spoiling every living thing on the face of the world. Each of the Rouges is yet to pay biggest price for their ignorance though. As the whole world suffers greatly under the Ash Curse - only the Rogues can break it…

In Deck of Ashes, players will find themselves scouring a grim fantasy world in search of combat cards, supplies, and other resources - all while battling against some of the vilest beasts the cursed land has to offer. The player takes the role of one of four antiheros and he finds and creates new cards in order to collect the powerful deck of cards and to defeat enemies in the turn-based tactical battles.

Every character’s story is unique so there are four separate story campaigns and starting each of these campaigns generates a new game world! It is up to you do decide where to go, which enemy to fight next and what resources to collect to create cards. There are more than 100 cards in the game and players can mix them to create the unique decks and combat styles!

To celebrate this announcement, the PC version of the game on Steam is getting its first ever discount (20% off) for a limited time The discount offer will end on December 1st.
