Summoner's Gambit · published
Dear players,
The wait is finally over!
The Lovecraftian strategy Roguelike deck-building game Summoner's Gambit is now available on Steam! Thank you for your patience and support. It’s time to enter the world of the Old Gods and begin your journey.
Summoner's Gambit combines deck-building, auto-battler strategy, and a blackjack-inspired energy management system. You take on the role of a collector tasked with reclaiming lost souls... Empowered by its forbidden gifts, you will hunt down the souls that were borrowed but never returned. Your only weapon is the deck of cards in your hands.
Blackjack Strategy, Every Decision Counts：With 21 energy as your limit in each battle, drawing one more card could completely change the outcome—or lead to total defeat. Every card is a gamble. Will you play it safe, or risk everything for a chance at victory?
Endless Builds, Limitless Strategies：With 500+ skills, 150+ runes, dozens of potions, and countless combinations, every run offers new possibilities. Create unique builds and discover your own path to victory.
Face the Unknowable：Explore dozens of branching events filled with Lovecraftian horror and mystery. The whispers of the Dagon Cult, the eerie glow of the Colour Out of Space, and the forbidden truths hidden within the Thurston Manuscript... Madness lurks everywhere. The gaze of the Old Gods is never far away.
A Trial Between Life and Death：Defeat is not the end. Face the Judgment of Life, sacrifice what you have to return stronger—or accept your final fate.
