'Dandy Ace' (ALL) Publishing Rights Picked up By Neowiz, Debut at PAX Online - Trailer

Dandy Ace is an over the top action game that follows this fabulous magician seeking to combine and use his magical cards, fighting and looting his way to defeat the Green-Eyed Illusionist and free himself from a cursed mirror.

Part Action/RPG and part roguelite, Dandy Ace’s core mechanic is in its extremely flexible skill system. Based on the magic cards that Ace has up his sleeve, the combination and powers of the skills can change depending on the equipped order. Each time Ace journeys into the Cursed Mirror, trapped there by the evil Green-Eyed Magician Lele, the player has a different selection to choose from, enabling countless possibilities for different builds and playstyles.

While battling your way through Lele’s ever changing palace, combine different cards with more than a thousand possibilities, each with their own playstyles and powers. Every run provides new challenges and combinations for players to explore as they progress closer to Lele.

Play as Dandy Ace, the amazing hero, and survive the challenges of the extravagant, lavish and ever changing palace created to defeat him filled with bizarre creatures and outrageous bosses. Find all of the magical cards, gather shards and gold, and get help from his assistants and unconventional allies.

Neowiz announced it has reached a deal to publish Mad Mimic’s Dandy Ace globally on PC and console in 2021. 

“We’ve been watching Mad Mimic make Dandy Ace for a while now, and are thrilled with just how fluid and fun the game is to play.” said Don Hudson, Product Manager at Neowiz. “We are ecstatic that the team trusts us to help them bring Ace’s brand of magic to a global audience in 2021, both on PC and consoles alike.”

“We’re so close to putting the final touches on Ace’s adventures inside the Cursed Mirror.” said Luis Sampaio, COO of Mad Mimic. “Knowing that a global powerhouse like Neowiz has our backs in the home stretch as we get ready to ship the game to the world next year is amazing. We can’t wait for everyone to play the final product.”

No More Heroes developer Mad Mimic is currently running a Kickstarter campaign for Dandy Ace, looking to raise a modest $25K, with which Mad Mimic hopes to add even more content to the game.

Neowiz and Mad Mimic will be bringing Dandy Ace to PAX Online with the rest of Neowiz’ titles, where players can get a look at the game in action.
