Azoove

From the Devs

Azoove is a co-op card roguelike about overcoming limited communication on an ill-fated save-the-world road trip to seal a cursed book.

Survive together with online multiplayer, playing cards to manage resources, mitigating each day's new dangers (Misfortunes) as you trek further through the Azoove desert.

During one phase of each round, communication with allies is limited to exchanging cards without revealing your hand. You must learn to trust in your teammates — or die trying.

WILL YOU MAKE IT IN TIME? OR WILL YOU BE LOST TO THE SANDS OF AZOOVE?

Core Mechanic: Overcoming Limited Communications

Collaborate Silently! As the Heroes fan out in search of Opportunity Cards, players are not allowed to discuss their hand. You must instead deduce the best move from what little planning and information you have.

Exchange Opportunity Cards strategically to share information and optimize the use of dwindling resources. Create unique communication patterns that help interpret the meaning behind traded cards.

The game will not force silence on you. You are expected to be using your own communication software (such as Discord) and follow the rules (or don't — we can't stop you but we promise it is more fun this way)

Meet the heroes

Play as 4 heroes with their unique powers and cards:

• Oriana, the Ranger

• Auri, the Bard

• Rin, the Guardian

The Story

A lifetime past, Farloon's founder saved his people with a stolen book of secrets. Now, with his death, the payment comes due - the souls of your city.

Only returning the grimoire to its rightful wardens may divert Farloon's fate - but a deadly desert lies between you and your city's salvation.

CAN YOU RETURN THE TOME IN TIME? HOW WILL YOU SURVIVE ARID AZOOVE?
