Join a gothic battle where Good confronts Evil using roguelike deckbuilding mechanics. Play as either side, invading Alaric's Castle, or as Alaric himself defending against the invading heroes!
As brave heroes, players storm Alaric's castle, customizing decks of cards to overcome its challenges. Each hero class offers unique abilities and playstyles, allowing for deep deckbuilding strategies. Players must navigate randomized floors, defeating a variety of enemies and powerful bosses. Satisfying strategic decisions arise from synergizing hero abilities, deck composition, and the obstacles faced.
Alternatively, players can assume the role of Alaric, the tyrannical ruler, and defend their castle against the invading heroes. By forging alliances with one of six malevolent factions, each with distinct strengths and weaknesses, players strategically deploy minions across the castle's three lanes. Unlocking new spells and abilities enables the creation of powerful combinations to overwhelm the heroes. Each boss encounter demands a unique tactical approach, further incentivizing adaptability.
Whether embarking on a heroic quest or defending a tyrannical reign, the game's two distinct modes provide an engaging and replayable deckbuilding experience. The randomized nature of each run, combined with meaningful choices and strategic depth, create a sense of tension and satisfaction. Fans of the genre will find much to enjoy in the game's diverse gameplay loops and the ability to seamlessly switch between perspectives.
