Crawlyard is a roguelite deckbuilder with real-time combat so it plays like a combination of Slay the Spire and Action RPG with a narrative to boot. The enemies are whimsical and numerous, and if you’re defeated your run is over, but you get powerful perks with special effects and various puppet parts that augment your gameplay style.
- Real-time battles: dungeon runs never have been so fast. Prepare and adapt on the way, think fast and make crucial decisions in the heat of combat.
- Tactical pause: if you need a breather use the pause to look for a life-saving card combo that will pull you out from dire straits you’ve plunged in.
- Find the synergy: rooms and cards affect each other in many surprising ways. Find out how to utilize them to develop a winning strategy or make your runs more challenging.
- Deck building: as the game progresses, the player receives room and hero cards, which he uses to build the dungeon and conquer it.
- Plethora of heroes: there is a knight, a rogue, and a mage to choose from. With the items found in the rooms you can customize and buff your heroes even further – or uncover new doll parts to build unique fighters.
- Intertwining stories: Meet other characters bewitched by the call of the Mansion. Get them to open up to you, learn about their traumas and manias, and affect their future – perhaps in a romantic way. The more you give, the more you obtain in return.
- Choices matter: the others are stuck, but you can still move forward, unraveling the threads of their unfortunate fates. Will you advise your new comrades to do what they want? Or will you suggest they search for what you think they need?
- Reach the Endgame: grow stronger, collect enough hints and find the perfect pattern – the ultimate room layout that will reveal the Wishmaster. Have your desires fulfilled at last… unless you found something, or someone, along the way that made your change your mind.
