7 itemsAbout the Game
"Nightcap Witch" is a rogue-lite strategy game where you fight using a limited number of units. Build a deck of 8 cards and defend the spring from the encroaching horde of nightmares. Can you drive away the nightmares and reclaim your peaceful sleep?
Fight with Limited Units
Fight alongside your units. Since there's a limit to how many units you can handle at once, summon them in suitable locations at the right times.
Know Your Matchups
Each unit fights in its own unique way. Study the traits of enemy units and counter them with those that have the advantage. It’s also important to avoid battles where you’re at a disadvantage against too many foes.
Use the Terrain
Make the most of the battlefield. A patch of grass might let you set enemies ablaze and wipe them out at once. Using barricades to hold the line is another strong tactic. You can also take advantage of tiles that grant attributes to your units.
Stack Cards to Power Up
Stacking 3 of the same card will significantly power it up!
Each unit demonstrates different strengths and will become a reliable travel companion.
Custom Difficulty
As you play more, you can increase your base abilities.
If you're confident in your skills, you can also play on more challenging difficulties.
