Looking for an immersive new game to get lost in? Desert Revenant is a wildly original RPG from new studio Kreationware, fusing roguelike adventuring with deck-building strategy. That’s right, this mythical adventure is a card game, mixing the most rewarding elements of games like Slay the Spire and Hearthstone with an enchanting story set in a Middle East-inspired world.
Emphasising skill over grind, Desert Revenant challenges players to build their knowledge as they embark on an epic quest through an ancient world of Jinns and magic. Throughout their journey, they will encounter scores of enemies pulled from ancient mythology that they’ll need to use cunning tactics to defeat. Throughout these battles, players will be able to summon minions and other enchanting allies to do their bidding.
On top of the stimulating turn-based combat, there is also a rich narrative to enjoy in Desert Revenant. Dropping players into the desert world of Elmyr, players become embroiled in a war between the city of Soom and the Jinn Kings. The multi-stranded plotline features multiple paths where your decisions affect the world, presenting players with challenges that test both brains and brawn.
