8 itemsAbout the Game
Magecraft: Spellbuilding is a deckbuilder with a focus on crafting your own spell cards and creating unique decks to take with you into the turn-based combat of the Dungeons.
While you have control over the cards you start with, the randomized Dungeon layouts, enemy encounters, passive powers, and scrolls ensure that no two runs are the same.
Take on enemy attacks, destroying them to keep yourself safe from harm - or take the hit and attack enemies directly to do as much damage as possible.
Fight your way through three distinct, themed dungeons, each with its own sets of enemies to defeat, powers and scrolls to collect, and events with with different choices to make.
Combine over 50 Sigils - with effects that deal damage, inflict debuffs, grant buffs, summon allies, and more - to craft custom spell cards for your deck.
Choose between a variety of appearances, color palettes, and unique Background powers when creating a character - and unlock new character colors to change into, as well as new characters with powerful abilities.
The Abyss is a separate mode with randomized characters and starting decks, where unlike the main game, dying means starting a new run from the very beginning.
