Overview
Cardtographer, developed and published by Tistic Games, is a roguelike deckbuilder that blends strategy, RPG elements, and turn-based tactics. Released on October 26, 2026, this indie title invites you to step into the role of a Cardtographer—a hero tasked with recovering the scattered Collection of the Ancients.
The protective spell that once sealed these powerful cards has failed, and creatures are using them to threaten the peace once more. Your mission is to reassemble the collection and seal it away for good.
Highlights
- Roguelike Deckbuilding: Each run is procedurally generated, ensuring that no two expeditions feel the same. You'll adapt your strategy as you collect new cards and build powerful decks.
- Solo or Online Co-Op: Play alone or team up with friends in online co-op. Combine the best abilities of different hero classes to create a dream team.
- Hero Classes and Unique Starter Decks: Choose from multiple hero classes, each with its own distinct starter deck, allowing for varied playstyles and replayability.
Who It's For
Cardtographer is perfect for fans of roguelike deckbuilders like Slay the Spire, as well as players who enjoy turn-based strategy and cooperative multiplayer. If you like the idea of building a deck from scratch, adapting to unpredictable challenges, and working with friends to overcome evil, this game is for you.
The procedural generation and multiple hero classes offer plenty of depth for both casual and hardcore strategy enthusiasts.
