What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access will support our development efforts with valuable information on where the focus should be, what works and what doesn’t. We will also use this period to build a community and momentum for the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will be in Early Access for at least one year, longer if we find that it needs considerable changes.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For the full version, we plan to have the adventure mode as close to feature complete as possible. We plan to release a more detailed roadmap when we have it ready.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version will have some features and gameplay elements missing, not fully implemented, and sometimes with placeholder artwork.

A player can customize their character in adventure mode, go through the introduction, equip and train, and then go on combat missions that currently have a limited number of possible enemies, equipment loadout, and rewards.

Character progression is limited to only a few martial skills.

Some equipment and cards available will have some functionally missing or not working as expected.

Some features and gameplay mechanics are not yet fully explained.

Saves will occasionally break after a game update, but we will strive to give ample warning.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We think it fair to have the game at an introductory lower price during the Early Access release, and we plan to raise the price on full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“During Early Access, we will collect some statistical information on gameplay and engage our community to find where the focus should be directed. Initially, we will use the Steam forums and some social media platforms, with more platforms considered if the situation demands it.”

About This Game

Embark on an exciting adventure of epic proportions inspired by the rich folklore of south-eastern Europe.

In this turn-based roguelike card battler, take the role of a miller’s offspring, their life upended during a vicious raid, and shape their place in a war-torn medieval world.
Find companions to help you overcome adversity, train, collect and equip your party with better gear to give yourself an edge in the tests ahead.

A Fresh Spin on the Deckbuilding Genre
In Unsung Ballads, your equipment and your training will dictate what cards are available to you, and in what quantity.



Varied Card Play
Not all cards are created equal; some of them represent actions that the characters will take during their turn, while others only need to be kept in hand for them to be activated when certain conditions are met.




Character Progression
Manage the training of your party to better prepare them for the trials that await them. Only through focused training combined with battle experience will they progress from novices to masters of their weapons of choice.


Your actions will determine how people will remember you. Will they sing heroic ballads in every tavern, or will they whisper tales untold about your infamous exploits?

Only time will tell if your stories will become Unsung Ballads.
