Trapped inside a book of legends, you guide a pair of heroes through pages filled with challenges. Each run sends them toward a final opponent through a changing fantasy world.
Explore hex-tile maps by spending ink to reveal hidden areas, then choose which encounters and discoveries to pursue. In turn-based battles, position one hero in front to protect the other, switch their places, and combine their cards and abilities.
Build a shared deck as you play by adding cards, finding relics, and slotting gems into cards to change their effects. Hero skill-tree choices depend on your deck, while persistent upgrades and rising difficulty levels provide longer-term progression.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight the ink-driven map exploration, the tactical choices of using two heroes, and the possibilities for card and gem combinations. Its visual style and run-to-run variety also receive praise. Recurring complaints include slow runs and animations, uneven difficulty, and reports of crashes or lost saves.
The ancients speak of a Book written since time immemorial containing all the world's legends. After many fabulous adventures, recounted in Faeria – Chronicles of Gagana, this relic was lost in a well of Faeria. Through contact with this source of magic, the Book developed a wicked free will of its own and became the Roguebook!
You are trapped in the Book of Lore of Faeria, and each page represents a new challenge. Lead your two heroes to victory in this roguelike deckbuilder developed in partnership with Richard Garfield, creator of Magic: The Gathering™. Put together the best synergies between cards, relics and abilities, and take on the Roguebook.
