Lost in Fantaland is a Roguelite game with deck-building at its core, deeply integrated with board-game strategy mechanics. You will choose one of six unique characters and embark on a randomly generated adventure. Use your creativity to build your deck, and uncover the secrets of this world!
Players can choose from six unique characters, each with their own starting deck and abilities. The game features over 300 cards and 100+ artifacts to collect and build your deck with. A key mechanic is the ability to "combine and play multiple cards at once." You can strategically play several cards together in a single turn to create powerful combo effects, like hitting multiple enemies for high damage. This allows for a lot of creativity in building and playing your deck.
In addition to deck-building, the game integrates deep tactical gameplay on a grid-based board. You must carefully position your character and utilize the map's environmental elements, such as traps, obstacles, and enemy movement, to your advantage. Proper positioning and movement is crucial to success. The game takes inspiration from tactical RPGs, with each character and enemy having their own movement ranges and abilities that interact with the board in different ways. Managing these spatial elements is a core part of the gameplay.
The game is structured as a roguelite, with randomly generated levels, enemies, and encounters on each playthrough. However, there is a meta-progression system where you earn "Soul Orbs" from battles that can be used to purchase permanent upgrades and buffs. This allows you to incrementally improve your character's power and abilities over multiple runs, even as the core gameplay and levels remain randomized. It provides a sense of progression and growth, while still maintaining the challenge and replayability of a roguelite.
The six playable characters are divided into three main classes: Warrior, Mage, and Trickster. Each class has its own unique mechanics, deck of cards, and playstyle. For example, the Warrior classes focus on high-damage melee attacks and manipulating enemy positioning, while the Mage classes revolve around elemental spells, traps, and managing a unique mana resource. The Trickster class is described as using environmental manipulation and a "curse" mechanic. This variety in character classes encourages multiple playthroughs as you explore the different strategies and synergies each one offers.
A key aspect of the gameplay is the emphasis on environmental interactions and physics-based effects. The game features numerous environmental hazards, traps, and objects that can be triggered or combined in clever ways. For instance, you can set fire to poisonous clouds to create chain reactions of explosions, or lure enemies into traps to deal damage. Mastering these environmental interactions and using them strategically is crucial to victory.
