From Press Release:
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK February 12th 2024 – Today, the award-winning company behind Deep Rock Galactic, Ghost Ship Publishing, and fledgling Danish studio Guidelight Games, have launched SpellRogue into early access on Steam. Players are invited to set off on a roguelike deckbuilding journey in which the fate of their run is determined by the roll of a dice…
In SpellRogue, players will become one of three elemental wizards tasked with defeating the sinister Voidwalkers who are corrupting the world. Through three Acts, they’ll build powerful decks of spells and collect game-changing artifacts and upgrades, as they’re faced with a series of turn-based combat battles that rely on the luck of their Mana Dice to succeed.
SpellRogue features more than 220 spells, with each fueled by mana determined by rolling a collection of six-sided dice. It’s not all random chance, however – players will be presented with opportunities to manipulate their hand to create powerful combos, and turn luck in their favour.
Key Features:
- Bend Fate to Your Will – Reroll, duplicate, split, flip and enchant Mana Dice with special effects to become the master of your own luck. Use your rolls to cast powerful spells, but remember that it’s not always about rolling the highest numbers.
- Craft your Perfect Deck with Unique Elemental Characters – Disassemble Mana Dice to feed devastating fire spells with Azar the Cinder Conjurer, use the power of nature to bless yourself or hamper enemies with Hazel the Earthen Mage, or control the ebb and flow of battle as Lapis the Azure Seer.
- Experiment with Hundreds of Spells and Artifacts – Cast over 220 spells, each with two separate upgrades to perfect your deck, and loot more than 100 powerful artifacts that can change the fate of your run.
- Put an End to the Corrupt Voidwalkers – Battle your way through more than 50 different enemies across three Acts, with each culminating in a deadly boss fight that will test your skills – will you leave it all to chance?
“This is a really exciting day for us, finally releasing SpellRogue into early access,” said Tim Skafte, Co-Founder and Artist at Guidelight Games. “We’re so grateful for all the support from Ghost Ship Publishing, and from everyone who’s taken a chance on us and our game so far. We hope everyone enjoys playing SpellRogue as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it, and we can’t wait to show you all what we have in store for early access.”
SpellRogue is available on Steam right now in early access, priced at €15.99 / $15.99 / £15.99. For more information, join the SpellRogue Discord, or visit the SpellRogue website.
