About the Game

Dies Irae tactical puzzle is a 2D strategy, puzzle, and roguelite game built around a tactical board where every move matters.

Move pieces, force manual matches, trigger automatic chain reactions, and evolve your pieces through merges. But every action also strengthens the enemy: after your moves, new enemy pieces appear on the board, putting pressure on your space and your decisions.

Advance through islands and biomes with unique rules, resources, and abilities. Unlock mercenary contracts, factories, rerolls, reputation, credits, and powers that let you manipulate the match hierarchy and change the course of the game.

When the board is full and there are no possible moves left, you must reset that board and try a better strategy.
