'SpellRogue' Is A Turn-based, Deckbuilding Roguelike Coming To PC - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on March 1, 2023 @ 4:43 p.m. PST

SpellRogue is a single-player turn-based roguelike with deck building and dice battling mechanic.

Spellrogue is a turn-based, deckbuilding roguelike where you cast powerful spells using your Mana Dice, gain legendary artifacts, upgrade your spells and experiment with potent combinations to annihilate the Voidwalkers corrupting the world. The core gameplay takes an innovative spin on the deckbuilding roguelike loop seen in titles such as Slay The Spire, using dice to create a new layer of strategy to the genre.

Manipulate dice in fun and novel ways to control the fickle Mana Dice and bend their fate to your will. Reroll, duplicate, split, flip and enchant with special effects to take command of the Mana Dice's random nature, and use them to cast your mighty spells.

But beware, the foul Voidwalkers are spreading their influence on the once peaceful inhabitants of the world and has made them ravenous. Battle your way through the Deadwoods, across the Scorched Desert and hunt down the source to cleanse the land of the corruption.

Engage groups of enemies and prioritize your targets carefully. Learn how each of the different opponents are capable of sabotaging your well laid plans when they interact directly with your spells and Mana Dice. The contagious mushrooms may 'infect' your spells with spreading debuffs, while the undead can curse your Mana Dice to roll poorly. The fiery elementals can even set your spells ablaze, hurting you if they are used.

 

Key Features:
