About the Game

This is a game that will completely overturn your expectations.

Built on the classic poker objective of “getting rid of all your cards,” Apokerlypse blends in deep deckbuilding roguelike mechanics, making every run a chance to unleash outrageous chain reactions that will leave you stunned.

Even if you know absolutely nothing about poker, you can jump in almost instantly with zero barriers to entry.

And in Apokerlypse, playing fair and playing safe is rarely the smart move… because here, there is—

Every card player here is a true master of trickery, armed with a wild range of skills:

  • Dragonfire Bomb — unleash an endless barrage of bombs

  • Bro on Bro — forcibly stack together a full run of “10”s

  • Blade Storm — discard cards in a mad frenzy

  • Emberblade Katana — make your hand burn even hotter

  • And many more…

Every battle pits you against card builds created by real players in asynchronous multiplayer.

They come armed with unique skills, chip combinations, and personalized decks of their own. Find their weaknesses, and do whatever it takes to defeat them!

Each hero comes with their own exclusive skill pool and chip pool, letting you create countless wildly different playstyles:

  • Rogue — capable of chaining attacks endlessly

  • Spider Priestess — excels at weaving cards into a deadly web

  • Gladiator — overwhelms enemies with relentless bomb throws

  • Alchemist — commands the power of fire

  • Queen — fights alongside dragons

  • More heroes are currently in development…

Every run lets you craft a completely different build through an incredibly rich set of deckbuilding tools:

  • 400 chips that reshape core mechanics and completely break the conventional rules of card play

  • 70 unique skills, plus 70+ skill modifiers, giving you endless tactical possibilities

  • 13 card enchantments that infuse single cards with magical power and turn them into absurdly powerful game-changers

  • Classic DBG deckbuilding actions like buying, removing, and transforming cards

  • And even more surprises waiting to be discovered...

The game currently supports 2–3 player online versus, with a 4-player mode now in development!

Online mode is a completely separate experience from single-player, offering a brand-new way to play.

With the playful and chaotic Fate Cards and the unpredictable Party Feast, every match is filled with surprises and twice the fun.

Online versus strategy roguelikes are a rare find — so grab your friends and jump into battle!

For those who prefer solo play, no worries at all—Apokerlypse offers a fantastic single-player experience that absolutely holds its own!

You can climb the higher ladder ranks. As your score increases, the enemies you face will gradually become utterly ridiculous in difficulty...

But don't sweat it, you'll be growing stronger right along with them! In the end, you'll become a legendary card player in the tavern, and the whole world will see your name!
