![]() I can use my paint brushes to reveal tiles around me, or ink pots to paint in a line to reach more desirable areas.Įach map is full of hidden goodies, including healing potions, gold piles, embellishment scrolls, and events. A few tiles are revealed at the start, including watchtowers, which reveal additional tiles, and card vaults, where I can draft additional cards. I’m given free reign on where to explore within each hexagonal map. ![]() ![]() Like Slay the Spire, each run includes three progressively challenging, procedurally generated levels, or maps, with each map culminating in a challenging boss fight. The only way out is to reveal the hex tiles of each map by painting them with brushes and ink pots, which are rewarded as loot drops from battles. The characters of Roguebook have become trapped inside the literal story book. Roguebook is an enjoyable evolution of the deckbuilding formula, and may even dethrone the Spire king thanks to its refreshingly colorful art style, dual heroes, and rewarding map exploration. Armed with a basic collection of cards, players embark on a gauntlet of battles and events, gaining new cards and refining their deck, and either finishing off the final boss, or die trying. It’s no surprise by now that 2019’s Slay the Spire helped inspire an entire genre of deckbuilding, roguelike video games. Available On: Steam PC (coming soon to PlayStation, Switch, Xbox)
