Overview
Pick Squad is a casual strategy title from developer and publisher ACE-Block, released on Steam on November 8, 2026. It blends deckbuilding, roguelike structure and auto-battler combat into a compact loop: buy units, arrange them on a board, then let a random draw decide which of them actually fires. The game supports English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Traditional Chinese, and it is built for single-player sessions with mouse-only controls.
Highlights
- Units are purchased from a shop and each one carries a unique skill, so squad composition matters as much as raw stats.
- Combat resolves through a number draw: the grid matching the drawn number lights up and the unit standing there activates its skill.
- Bond skills unlock when several units sharing the same bond are on the field, and treasures add further skill effects to the squad.
Who It's For
This one suits players who enjoy roguelike runs with light deckbuilding and a bit of board-placement thinking. Because the damage outcome depends on a random number draw, it rewards planning around probability rather than pure execution. Mouse-only controls and a casual pace make it approachable for short sessions, while the bond and upgrade systems give strategy-minded players something to optimize.
