❤ Deckbuilding and Character Customization

Players can choose from 10 unique characters, each with their own pool of special cards and passive abilities. Before each run, players can customize their starting 12-card deck as well as the 30-40 card pool that will be offered as rewards during the run. For example, players can focus on an "ice" or "poison" theme by searching for related cards and adding them to their deck and pool. This level of customization allows players to fine-tune their strategy and synergies rather than relying on random chance.

❤ Tactical Combat

The combat system requires players to thoughtfully play their cards. Each turn, players have a limited mana pool to spend on attack, defend, and special ability cards. Enemies telegraph their actions, such as attacking, defending, or buffing, allowing players to plan their response. The combat incorporates a range of status effects like Shock, Frost, and Arcane that add depth and complexity. For example, players can freeze enemies to control the battlefield or inflict Shock to disrupt their actions. Careful management of health, block, and resources is crucial to overcoming challenging enemy encounters.

❤ Progression and Roguelike Elements

As players complete runs, they unlock new cards, characters, and other upgrades that carry over between runs. However, the actual run structure is randomized, with procedurally generated maps, encounters, and rewards. This creates a sense of unpredictability and replayability, as each run presents new challenges and opportunities to experiment with different strategies.

❤ Player Choice and Flexibility

Beyond deckbuilding, players can select missions, upgrade their town, and equip powerful items to tailor the experience. The game does not force players down a single "optimal" path, but rather encourages experimentation and the development of personalized strategies. For instance, players can choose to focus on defensive play, summoning minions, or burst damage based on their preference and the cards available.

❤ Diverse Card Mechanics and Synergies

The game boasts an expansive card pool of over 1,200 cards, each with unique mechanics and interactions. The cards cover a wide range of effects, from direct damage to status effects to summoning abilities. Players can discover powerful synergies, such as combining cards that apply Shock to disable enemies and then following up with high-damage attacks. The depth and variety of the card pool ensure that each run feels distinct and offers new strategic avenues to explore.
