A card roguelike across eight deserts. Run the dunes, dodge the rocks and thorns, and draw your cards when a monster blocks the way. Three cards in hand. The enemy tells you what it will do next. Block or strike — that one choice, every turn, is the whole game. ■ Every desert plays by its own rule Sand Desert — easy to rest in. A good first run. Salt Desert — salt shields you, but the monsters hit harder. Red Canyon — heat burns you every 3 turns. Cool off in the shade. Sandstorm Desert — half of what the enemy plans is hidden by dust. Glass Desert — lightning strikes everyone every 4 turns and leaves Charge. Save it, then let it go. Mirage Desert — phantoms slip into your deck. Turn your losses into strength. Black Ash Desert — healing is cut by 30%. Pay in blood for power. Heart of the Desert — where every desert meets, and every guardian waits. ■ A new deck every run Pick cards after each fight, upgrade at camp, burn what you don't need at the altar. No two decks are the same. ■ Relics The Ankh restores what you lost after every battle. The Storm Compass upgrades your kept card each turn. One relic can point the whole deck somewhere new. ■ Alone, anywhere No internet needed. A run is short, and you can stop any time.
Hexrealm Expedition
Read full descriptionHide full description
Hexrealm Expedition is a portrait strategy game about revealing hex tiles, building a frontline, and pushing your army toward the enemy stronghold. Every battle starts with a hidden map. Flip tiles to uncover barracks, gold mines, towers, and tactical events. Barracks spawn troops, mines fuel your expansion, and towers hold the line. Each reveal can change the board, so every run asks for a new plan. Features: • Hex reveal battles: discover resources, buildings, and routes across the board. • Auto-pushing armies: troops advance along the frontline and fight for control. • Card growth: collect, upgrade, and combine units and buildings. • Expedition stages: unlock new maps, challenges, and rewards. • Short sessions: built for quick tactical runs on mobile. The current version lets players experience the core game without paid purchases. Some optional rewards can be earned through rewarded video ads.
