Book of Demons

In the paper-crafted world of Paperverse, you return to a village under threat and descend through the dungeons beneath the Old Cathedral to confront the Archdemon. You can play as a warrior, rogue, or mage. Explore branching paths, fight monsters, collect loot, and use attacks and abilities against enemies with different defenses and tricks. Movement follows set routes, while combat involves targeting foes and responding to threats such as shields, spells, and status effects. Equipment, spells, and items are represented by cards. Choose a limited loadout, swap cards to suit encounters, and upgrade them with resources found in the dungeons. Procedurally generated quests can be sized to your available time; after the campaign, Freeplay and a permadeath Roguelike mode offer further challenges.

Descend procedurally generated cathedral dungeons as a card-equipped hero, fighting demons on fixed paths in runs sized to your time.

Fight Along Dungeon Paths
