News: Dark fantasy deckbuilding RPG Shuffle Tactics received a Demo on Steam
Publisher The Arcade Crew and developer Club Sandwich released the first playable demo for
Shuffle Tactics,
a dark fantasy, tactical deckbuilding roguelite RPG coming to PC via Steam in 2025.
Guide inventive reimaginings of classic fantasy warrior types, like a spell-slinging cat mage who can deploy elemental
Mana Pylons on the battlefield, through battles blending the tense heights of tactical unit positioning and deckbuilding.
Shuffle Tactics is a roguelike deckbuilding tactical RPG. Strategize to survive tough battles, pick the right cards to create powerful synergies, and bond with your sidekicks to get an edge in battle. Adventure awaits! Will you rise as Asteria's new King?
At the end of each fight, players will receive rewards including a choice between three cards, a sidekick hire, random relics,
random card charms, access to a shop to spend your hard-earned gold, a card upgrade, and a sidekick level up. Be mindful of the
sidekicks you choose, as only up to four sidekicks can be hired during a run.
Players can recruit from a roster of 20 unique sidekicks, each skilled in areas like healing, magic, and archery, to support
Asteria’s savior in battle. By hiring these allies, players can unlock powerful synergies and create formidable teams. Discovering
mythical relics will further enhance tactical options, offering new possibilities in each battle.
Admire Shuffle Tactics’ weaving of 2D pixel art with 3D environments as you strategize your path to victory, and claim your
rightful place as Asteria's new King. Tacticians must navigate sprawling 3D battlefields, where every angle and elevation
can mean the difference between victory and defeat, emphasizing the critical importance of positioning.
For warlords with a competitive edge, medals will be awarded to players with the fastest run, lowest damage received during
a run, and biggest single attack damage.
In Shuffle Tactics’ medieval world of Asteria, King Ogma has cursed the land while attempting to revive his beloved queen.
Instead of returning his true love to her kingdom, King Ogma has inflicted Glimmer upon the world. This mysterious force has
corrupted the inhabitants of Asteria and the King himself, while also imbuing Shuffle Tactics’ starring heroes with special
powers.
Discover the secret behind the curse that repeatedly revives these warriors after they fall in battle, all while fighting to
bring down the corrupted King Ogma to restore peace to the realm of Asteria.
Master synergies with sidekicks, damage-dishing deckbuilding and warrior positioning in a grand challenge of strategy and might in the Shuffle Tactics Demo on Steam.
