Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I'm a solo indie developer, and Early Access income lets me keep working on this game full time.
The demo has also reached fairly few players so far, so feedback has been limited. Early Access will let more people play and help shape where development goes next.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Early Access to last about 10 months. The actual timeline may change based on development progress and player feedback.”

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

“For the full version, we plan to add:
- A third playable character
- An extended story from 45 to 50 floors, including the true ending
- 5 to 7 new bosses, 3 to 6 new elite enemies, and more regular enemies
- More events and relics
We will consider a multiplayer mode only after all other content is finished.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes two playable characters, the Martialist and the Artificer, each with their own cards and playstyle.
The story spans 45 floors with 9 boss fights, along with the Star Chart progression system, support allies, and random events.
The true ending is not included yet and is planned for the full version.”

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

“The Early Access price is lower than the planned full release price. We plan to raise the price at full release as more content is added.”

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

“You can join our QQ group and Discord directly from the main menu, or use the in-game "Feedback" button to report bugs and share suggestions. We collect feedback in the Steam discussions and our community channels, and every update comes with patch notes explaining what changed.”

About This Game

The ancient beasts, the ascended immortals — all that remains of them now are scattered whispers and half-told tales.

Why did the gods and spirits vanish from the world? It all begins with a single broken god-realm.

You were not born to this world. The sovereign god Taiyi drew you into a small world he keeps for himself — a mortal, trapped upon a god’s game board. Fight battle after battle to uncover the truth of this realm, and find your way back to the mortal world.

A card’s growth goes far beyond a simple “level up”:

• Upgrade Paths — every card can grow along several routes; the choice is yours.

• Soul Enchant — bind extra effects onto a card until it transforms.

• Relics · Rewrite the Rules — relics don’t just boost numbers; they rewrite how the fight works.

• New Cards — unlock fresh cards along the way to deepen your pool.

The Martialist trades blows up close with fist, foot, and inner Qi; the Artificer keeps foes at bay with Luban contraptions and ammunition… Each class brings its own cards, skills, and gear — and its own way to survive.

Press deeper across the world map, where elites, bosses, events, and secrets wait in the mist for your choice. Every layer draws you closer to this world’s core — and the truth may weigh far heavier than “going home” ever did.

The heart of this game’s combat: battles don’t play out in a single row, but across a 3×3 grid — where positioning is strategy. Melee units hold the front line and soak damage; ranged fighters and summons hang back to blanket the field with fire. A single step can dodge a pit-fire, slip past a trap, or make an enemy’s heavy blow whiff. Foes maneuver too — read the red-cell attack zones, the spreading pit-fire, and the hidden mechanisms if you mean to have the last laugh.

It starts with your Spirit Root. Beyond the five Wu Xing roots — Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth — six hidden roots await discovery on your journey. Each root has three tiers; the higher the tier, the more unusual the upgrade paths it unlocks. A root’s type and tier reshape the upgrade paths of most of your cards: the same card grows into a wholly different form under a different root. Your Spirit Root sets the course of the entire deck.
