S.T.A.R.V.E.: Farming Roguelike Deckbuilder

A roguelike deckbuilder about farming alien planets for a corporation that only cares about quotas. Grow mutant crops on a tactical grid while aliens and nature do their best to kill your harvest. Miss quota and you get "outsourced".

About the Game

The only metric that matters: THE QUOTA!

One number decides everything: hit your seasonal Quota or the run ends. Chain harvests into money-printing card combos and chase bonus objectives to stay ahead of ever-climbing targets.

Effects fire on cue

Cards trigger as they live: the moment you plant them, every turn they grow, and the second you harvest. Time your triggers right and one shroom snowballs into a full-blown engine.

Protect your Crops

Aliens bite your crops down, meteors and earthquakes tear up your fields, hostile soil punishes careless planting. Fight back with your deck or watch your harvest burn.

Enhance your deck  

Crack open boosters at the S.T.A.R.V.E. Employee Store and refine your build with new crops and tools. Mutate cards in the Lab to unlock powerful evolutions, yours forever, run after run.

Chart the Galaxy

Cross a procedurally generated star map, choosing between planets, shops, labs, and events. Quotas climb toward a guaranteed-disaster finale, and no two runs play the same.

Find your strategy

Dozens of modules and unlockables push every run toward a different game-breaking build.
