A methodical, punishing roguelike auto-battler where you build and refine a deck of cards to command an army, with each run feeling like a tense puzzle of resource management and positioning.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy a first run of the novelty and progression, while others find the core loop of waiting for resources and managing minions quickly boring and repetitive. Long-time players note the game feels unfinished and lacks variety, though the developer is praised for listening to feedback.
