About the Game

While you had found tranquility, secluded from the world, duty calls you back : your best friend has been taken by a corrupted tyrant for ominous designs. Soon, you are bound to break your oath of peace and take back in hand your rusted trusted sword, a magical entity by your side to alleviate your burden.

In this roguelike deckbuilder game your spells are represented by tiles. Place them in a timeline where you can foresee your opponent intents.

But be careful of your enemies adapting to your strategy

  • Modify your tiles with upgrades along the way. Every tiles can get any upgrades, find your own unique destructive combos

  • Barter better tiles with the trader

  • Meet with the blacksmith to strengthen your timeline

  • Transform the power of your deck with relics you will find when defeating tougher enemies and bosses

Carve your path to the Devious King and discover what lies behind its madness
