Dear Players,
Greetings! Happy to announce that Lost for Swords officially launches on Steam today! Thank you for your incredible support along the way!
If you’re a fan of deckbuilder and some good roguelike dungeon-crawling action, we are sure Lost for Swords is the GAME for you! But before you begin your journey to conquer towers, our Tower Quartermaster has a few PSA to share:
Core Experience
At the heart of Lost for Swords is a fusion of deckbuilding and a procedurally-generated dungeon crawling experience. The layout of each dungeon floor is directly shaped by the cards in your deck!
The game features three playable characters and six unique towers (including a hidden one!). Each character has access to over 100 exclusive cards, and we’ve also added difficulty options and starter deck options to support deep customization and high replayability.
Community-designed Levels
Do you know that Lost for Swords supports community-designed levels?
Through the "Hero Academy" feature (unlocked after clearing the second tower), players can create and upload their own custom dungeons. If you can beat your own level, then it is good for sharing! — think Mario Maker's custom level system! With your creativity, the tower can keep expanding endlessly, and we can’t wait to see what you build!
Bug Reports and Feedback
We’ve worked hard to deliver a polished and complete experience at launch. That said, with so many cards and creative mechanics in play, a few bugs or inconsistencies may have slipped through. If you encounter anything unusual, please let us know via Discord or the Official Steam Discussion Board, we’d love your feedback and will roll out patches quickly! We promise that we are always actively listening.
Thank you again for your support, and we hope you enjoy our game!
