12 itemsAbout the Game
Aliosso is a turn-based roguelike all about combining tiles and cards to win battles and survive a perilous journey across the desert of Samsara.
Customize your tiles: place a rune, increase their trigger value, set an edition, or change their type entirely! Find the right cards that synergize with your tiles, and turn that Power into devastating strikes.
Cards represent run-altering effects that can influence just about anything. The rules are malleable, like sand.

- Different locations to explore along your journey.
A DARK DJINN'S RETURN
The last surviving human clans endure a nomadic existence fraught with hardship. As generations passed, the history of Samsara faded into oblivion. Long forgotten, a dark Djinn has found its way back, driven by an insatiable desire to reclaim its full powers and extend its supreme will on the desert and beyond.
