A challenging rogue-like deck building game about a legendary adventure in the Realm of Divinity. Lead your team, build your unique deck, gather powerful relics and consumables to confront legendary creatures and eventually discover the truth behind the omen of darkness.
Players can choose from five legendary heroes, each with their own distinct abilities, card pools, and special storylines. For example, Wukong can unleash devastating area-of-effect attacks, shapeshift to learn skills from any NPC, and manipulate fire to inflict the burning status. The Holy Monk has the unique ability to apply "good" or "evil" status on enemies, allowing him to convert foes to his side or unleash powerful attacks. These diverse mechanics encourage replayability as players explore the synergies and strategic options available for each hero.
The game's deck-building system offers a wealth of customization options, with over 500 unique cards, 300 relics, and consumables for players to discover and incorporate into their strategies. The card pool provides a wide range of offensive, defensive, and utility options, enabling players to craft personalized decks that complement their chosen hero's abilities. Additionally, the ability to recruit and synergize with a variety of companions further expands the deck-building possibilities, as players can leverage the unique card sets and skills of their team members.
Players can build a team of up to five companions and NPCs to aid them in combat. Companions are permanent party members, each with their own unique abilities and card sets, while NPCs are temporary allies that can be summoned or converted during battles. The strategic selection and deployment of these team members is crucial, as they can provide valuable support, specialized skills, and additional card options to the player's deck.
The game adopts a roguelike structure, where each run presents players with a new set of challenges and obstacles to overcome. The four distinct chapters feature procedurally generated events, enemies, and potential endings, encouraging players to experiment with different strategies and character builds to achieve success. This non-linear progression and high degree of difficulty create a rewarding and replayable experience.
The game's narrative is inspired by the classic Chinese novel "Journey to the West", set in the vibrant "Realm of Divinity". The diverse cast of characters, each with their own backstories and motivations, contribute to a deeply immersive experience. The game's visual and audio design, featuring hand-drawn art and a fitting soundtrack, further enhance the thematic presentation, creating a cohesive and atmospheric experience for players.
