About This Game

Every room is a life-or-death decision. Enter with nothing but a shuffled deck and your wits. Face dungeons where strategy trumps luck; every card in your deck must be used wisely to escape alive. This isn't about collecting the rarest cards; it's about making the most of what you have, turn by turn, in a relentless struggle for survival.

Each room presents 4 random cards from your deck. One wrong choice could end your run.

  • ♥️ Hearts - Heal with precious potion cards

  • ♦️ Diamonds - Equip powerful weapons (only one at a time!)

  • ♠️ Spades & Clubs - Fight monsters or flee

  • ⭐ Jokers - Trade weapons for healing in desperate moments

The unique challenge? You must play every single card in your deck to escape. There are no shortcuts, just pure strategy, intense resource management, and nerve-wracking decisions. 

  • Campaigns: Four different challenging campaigns with over 25 septillion possible combinations.

  • Custom Deck Builder: Create your perfect deck composition with endless possibilities

  • Speedrun Mode: Built-in timer and leaderboards for competitive play

  • Procedural Dungeons: Save seeds to replay challenging runs or share discoveries

  • Endless Mode: Survive infinite dungeons with reshuffling decks and incrementing seeds

  • Advanced Stat Tracking: Track your progress with detailed charts and graphs

  • Replay System: Save and review every decision to master your strategy

Plus Even More Features:

  • Full controller support

  • Immersive adaptive soundtrack

  • Multiple difficulty levels

  • Extensive achievements

  • Dedicated accessibility settings

  • Fast-paced tutorial to learn the basics

Chain devastating card combinations, face powerful monsters in the deepest dungeons, and discover why every card matters in this addictive strategic rogue-like. Learn from every defeat, refine your strategy, and push deeper than ever before. Whether you're speed-running for the leaderboards or testing your limits in endless mode, every run tells a unique story of survival, strategy, and split-second decisions.

This game is not for the faint of heart! It's a hard and super fun challenge that kept me clicking "Endless Mode", or more likely "try again" 😭 very cool style and the music is great!

It's a lot of fun but really challenging. I would highly recommend it for people that enjoy a challenge with a high difficulty curve.

This game: very fun, addictive, easy to learn but hard to win! The music & vibe is just dope! Jump in, one game can turn into 5, then I rage quit because I suck. ....but I keep coming back anyway. Highly recommend!!

So far.... Very fun, very challenging, and there appears to be a ton to the campaign! I have mainly been playing random generated seeds, but I will need to start my dive more into the campaign. So far, I would definitely recommend this game. I love that it came from a small studio also!

It's not an easy game, and it doesn't try to be. Once you get it though the game feels really good! I really like all the customization options to completely change the look and feel of the game, the werewolf is so cute with the fantasy style! The psy-fi Option is also pretty cute as well.
