About This Game

Elemental Exiles is an RPG deckbuilding roguelike. Overcome challenging battles and adapt to unexpected narrative encounters as you grow your deck and explore to complete your chosen characters personal quest.



Each of the 12 playable characters starts in a different area of the map and has their own unique starting deck and personal quest to complete. You'll have 4 characters to choose from at first, but the other 8 can be unlocked by finding and defeating them on the world map or by achieving their other unique unlock criteria. The starting characters include:

• A naïve Elven warrior still determined to protect the village that exiled them...
  
• An old Dwarven researcher searching for a very specific piece of hidden knowledge...
  
• A bitter bounty hunter determined to track down her treacherous former partners...
  
• An abandoned young water mage searching for the master who betrayed her...

With each step your character takes, uncover more of the world around you. The map features over 200 unique locations and, even if you fail your quest on a particular playthrough, the parts of the map you uncover will remain. Discover the locations of unique, permanent bosses and rest areas and then use that knowledge to plan out routes that are a good match for your current deck and quest goals.



When you choose to play a particular card can be just as important as which card you play. Cards in Elemental Exiles have additional effects that only trigger when certain conditions are met - such as being the first card played on your turn, or being played immediately after another card of a specific element. Whether or not you manage to trigger these extra conditional effects can be the difference between victory and defeat, so be sure to keep possible synergies in mind when choosing new cards for your deck.



Most cards are attuned to one of three elements - Fire, Water or Nature. Each of these has a corresponding strength and weakness - for example, Fire actions are strong against Nature and weak against Water. Naturally certain enemies and bosses also favor a particular element, so while your Fire deck might crush a group of tree spirits while travelling through a forest, it's going to struggle against a hoard of angry water elementals you encounter while walking along the coast... Will you try to specialize in one element to increase synergy? Or will you favor a more balanced approach to reduce your potential weaknesses?
