“Playing through my first few runs, I'm surprised how tense it feels searching for those perfect solutions. Trying out different possible configurations and trying to trim down how many resources they burn through is almost like carefully tuning a radio until you find the one killer frequency.”
PC Gamer

“I’m having a lot of fun with Talystro. I really enjoy having to calculate simple math problems to take out enemies instead of just clicking random cards; it feels genuinely unique. I can’t wait to see how the game changes before its full release.”

“Though not yet fully featured, there’s a really strong framework in place for Talystro even at this early stage, and we’re definitely looking forward to seeing the last layers being applied to this mathematical marvel.”

About This Demo

Talystro is a roguelite dice-and-deckbuilder whit a mathematical twist. The Necrodicer has started the forbidden ritual of Talystro, twisting the very math of the universe to her wicked will. In this demo version, you'll face off against a horde of her numerical underlings, and take out one of her commanders, the Keeper of the Flame.

Match your Enemy

Instead of chipping away at your enemy's HP, you'll instead try and match their value to instantly take them out. Your cards contain one or more unfinished calculations and you'll use your dice to complete them.

Outnumbered

Each encounter will have you face off against multiple numerical adversaries, twisted and turned by the dark magic of Talystro. It's up to you to determine how to best deal with them and in what order!

Weapons of Choice

Collect, upgrade and enchant your cards. As your enemies grow in value (and numbers!), finding cards to give you the flexibility to deal with them will be key. The calculations on your cards often refer to variables, like the number of dice for instance; Since these variables change during the round, the order of operations will be important -- countless possibilities and room for optimization! The cards can also contain various triggers, modifiers and spell effects.

The Crossroads

At the Crossroads you'll get to choose your next combat encounter and its associated rewards. Find the right balance of risk versus rewards, spend your gold at the two shop and reach your quarry, the Keeper of the Flame.

This Demo

This demo features a limited set of cards and artifacts, with some meta progression in the form of card unlocks. The demo will also be limited to a single specialized act, while our complete game will feature three.

Our Quest

We're hoping to release Talystro in Early Access later this year. Please check back for updates!
