What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The core loop is solid: sneak, scavenge, build your deck, get out. What it needs now is more players getting caught in ways we didn’t plan for. Early Access lets us build the rest alongside the people who actually play it: bigger maps, deeper crafting, and a trading hall.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Roughly 1-2 years, depending on what we learn from you. Community feedback will shape the schedule, and we’ll keep everyone posted on our progress.”

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

“We plan to make the full version bigger across the board: a much larger map, deeper crafting, a lot more cards, and a player trading hall. There are also a few secrets we’re keeping to ourselves. This is the Agency’s game; not everything is in the briefing.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core loop is playable start to finish: explore handcrafted dungeons, scavenge chests for treasure, build your deck, and avoid things that can’t be killed. Right now that includes half of the first level of the dungeon, 40+ cards, and 8 characters, with solo and 4-player co-op. Some systems are rough or will change. We’re currently expanding the map, rebalancing characters, and adding new cards and effects.”

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price of Dawn of Irkalla as we add substantial new content and features during Early Access, leading to a higher price for the full release. We want to be totally upfront with everyone, so we'll announce any price changes well in advance. Early Access players will get the lowest regular price the game will have.”

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

“Our Discord is where balance, cards, and dungeon design get argued about. If a monster is too easy to avoid, or a room is unfair, tell us there. We're listening.”

About This Game

Dawn of Irkalla is a 4 player co-op horror stealth dungeon crawler where you have no weapons and no way to fight back. Build your deck, unlock skills, scavenge vital items, and race against the clock to retrieve artifacts for a shadowy government agency. Your survival depends on it.

  • A meticulously handcrafted dungeon: Every level of the dungeon is handcrafted, so you can master the layouts, learn the patterns, and find the secrets. Early Access includes the first level.

  • You cannot fight back: the monsters in the dungeon cannot be killed. Learn their patterns, use stealth, and stay out of sight. Your only tools are your wits and your deck of cards.

  • Deck-building and progression: construct and refine your deck as you explore, develop your character through a skill tree, and find a playstyle that suits you.

  • Loot: Find treasure chests so you can unlock even stronger cards.

  • Secrets and hidden areas: the dungeons reward the curious, and those who look hard enough will start to uncover the truth behind the Agency and what was never meant to be found.

  • Powerful permanent rewards: solving secrets changes the way you play by permanently changing the dungeon to unlock even more possibilities. 

  • Learn the truth: the Agency wants the artifacts. You just want the truth. Something is buried deep in these dungeons. Artifacts of unknown origin and unknown power. The Agency you work for wants them badly enough to send you in.

  • Solo or co-op play: descend alone or bring up to 4 players into the depths.

  • Voice chat: strategize in real-time with proximity and global voice chat in game.

  • Deck and character synergies: cards and characters synergize with each other. Playing with friends unlocks possibilities that just aren't possible when playing solo.
