Deckgammon is an extraction roguelite that reimagines backgammon as a modern tactical deckbuilder. Every card you play reshapes the battlefield where positioning matters, time is an enemy, and no two battles unfold in the same way.

About This Demo

Fight across an ancient battlefield where every move matters, every turn raises the stakes, and clever decisions can snatch victory from defeat. Build a deck of powerful cards, command units across a shifting battlefield, and carve a path to extraction in a tactical roguelite infused with the timeless art of backgammon.

BUILD YOUR DECK

Forge your strategy one card at a time.

Collect, upgrade, and refine a deck that defines how you fight, whether through precision strikes, clever positioning, or powerful combos. Every run offers new choices, letting you adapt, experiment, and discover synergies that can turn the tide of battle.

BACKGAMMON COMBAT

Battles are fought through tactical combat inspired by backgammon.

Position your units, pin enemies, force dangerous moves, extract units, and exploit openings to drive your opponent’s health to zero. Every move matters. One mistake can expose your forces. One clever play can collapse the enemy’s formation.

CLAIM THE SPOILS

Victory brings rewards. Strip defeated enemies of their Drachma and convert their remains into Fragments.

Drachma fuels your power during a run. Fragments shape your long term growth. Control your detection level and manipulate the battlefield to extract greater rewards from every encounter.

COMMUNE WITH OTHER REALMS

Offer Drachma to Hecate in exchange for powerful blessings.

Strengthen your units, improve your deck, and acquire rare abilities that can reshape how battles unfold. Wealth can also buy time. Unspent Drachma extends the window before enemies discover your presence.

CHOOSE YOUR PATH

Traverse Gaia from the mountains of the Caucasus, where Prometheus remains bound, to the corrupted heart of Delphi.

Every route carries different risks and rewards. Travel north to hidden camps to reduce detection, or venture toward temples in search of greater power. Your choices shape the dangers that await.

BUILD YOUR CONSTELLATION

Death is not the end. When you fall, you rise again. Fragments gathered during your journey allow you to expand your constellation, unlocking permanent powers that strengthen future attempts.

Heroes become constellations. Gods create heroes.

ADAPTIVE SOUNDTRACK

Over three hours of music accompany your descent into Gaia.

The soundtrack adapts to where you are and what is happening around you. Each region of the world carries its own musical identity while combat music evolves as your detection level rises, increasing intensity as the world begins to hunt you.

The score blends atmospheric ambient with club-rooted electronic music. Deep house, hypnotic techno, hardgroove, and industrial techno form the backbone of the combat soundtrack, while quieter moments are supported by ambient and atmospheric compositions.

Featuring music from professional artists including Rolando Hodar & Big Feta.
