About This Demo

Getting hit right is better than not getting hit at all! Fill your parry meter to perfectly match incoming damage. When you hit the bell to end your turn, enemy attacks will be countered to devastating effect

Master powerful new stances

Play stance cards onto the primary and secondary slots. Position yourself to deflect attacks and strike down your foes. Discover new stance cards with powerful effects and special counter attacks.

Navigate the High Seas

Chart your own route using your telescope. Select your next encounter based on the rewards you want: gold, special cards, or urgent healing? Voyages are procedurally generated based on your chosen destination using factors like distance and biome. To reach your destination you’ll have to survive the entire voyage, otherwise you’ll find yourself back in The Locker where Davy Jones will resurrect you back to the last island you were on to try again!

Strategically fill your cargo before setting sail

As you navigate the world, you’ll build up a permanent inventory of treasures and trinkets, but you can’t bring them all with you on voyages. Before setting sail, fill your limited cargo slots with artefacts, consumables or coins. Experiment with different starter item combos to give your next voyage a boost!

Get loot or die trying!

Discover hundreds of cards to build your deck, and plunder powerful artefacts. Upon death you’ll have to bargain your way back from Davy’s locker and start over!
