About the Game

Spellmasons is a turn-based, tactical roguelike where you use your wit to blend spells and create new combinations. You can play solo or with friends in online co-op!

Discover Clever Combinations

The Spell System is deep and powerful: spells alter each other to allow for tons of creative possibilities.  For example: When you cast "Swap" on an enemy, the next spells in the combo will target your original location that you teleported away from so you can link nearby enemies together and follow up with a powerful damage spell that dispatches all of them at once! 

Spellmasons rewards variation and creativity: spells get more expensive as you use them, and less expensive as turns pass, so you are encouraged to try new strategies often.

Explode your friends!

Work together with your friends in online co-op.  Save each other from near death or accidentally blow up each other!

Spellmasons features a unique “Faction-based” turn system where you and your friends can take your turn at the same time to keep the action going.

Specialize your magic

The Rune system adds a whole new layer to your magical potential by enhancing and specializing your magic.  If you want to be a Contagious Plague Mage who carries around curses so you can infect enemies wherever you go, you can do that.  How about a necromancer who creates copies of himself whenever he teleports and has a random chance to resurrect any enemy that he kills to fight for him?  Yup.  The possibilities are endless.

Challenging and Rewarding

Champion-ranked enemies provide an extra special challenge. They have modifiers such as “Growth” which makes them become stronger over time so you need to dispatch them quickly or “Slime” which gives them the ability to clone themselves.  Champions will make you think beyond your favorite strategies and come up with something new. 

Uncover Secrets and Exploits

Find clever ways to push beyond your maximum mana to pull off ridiculously powerful spells.

Some spells combine in powerful and unexpected ways and the Discord community is always discovering new secrets.

Will I enjoy Spellmasons?

Spellmasons is a thoughtful, challenging, deliberate turn-based experience. Take your time, think creatively, and watch all of your plans unfold just like your diabolical little heart intended!
