About This Game

A blasphemous, satirical roguelike deckbuilder.


In a world where faith has become bureaucracy, marketing, and social control,
Jesualdo and Magdala fight against corporate saints, televised inquisitors,
and monsters born from collective guilt.

Dogma Shutdown is a narrative roguelike deckbuilder inspired by Slay the Spire,
Inscryption, and Darkest Dungeon, built around strong religious satire
and tactical turn-based combat.

Key Features


  • Strategic turn-based card combat
  • Playable characters with completely distinct mechanics and playstyles
  • Faith, Sin, Consensus, and Miracles as gameplay resources
  • Unique enemies built around readable gameplay gimmicks
  • Dark humor, religious satire, and psychological themes
  • Narrative choices and roguelike progression
  • Multi-phase boss fights inspired by the Seven Deadly Sins

The World of Dogma Shutdown


Religion and capitalism have fused into a corrupted system.
Indulgences are sold through sponsorships,
miracles are tools of propaganda,
and redemption has become a subscription service.

You will face:

  • Divine auditors armed with spiritual taxation
  • Flagellants obsessed with suffering
  • Televised preachers and saint influencers
  • Creatures born from collective guilt and blind devotion

Fight the system. Or exploit it.


Accumulate Faith.
Manipulate Consensus.
Commit Sin.
Unleash forbidden Miracles.

Every choice changes your strategy
and the way the world reacts to you.

Mature Content Description
General Themes: DogmaShutdown is a satirical deckbuilder focused on religious criticism, black humor, and institutional satire.

Violence: Combat is turn-based and abstract. While there is no realistic gore or blood, the game features depictions of "public suffering" and mechanical self-damage used as a resource for tactical advantages (e.g., "Passion" and "Sponsor-Friendly Suffering").

Visual Iconography: Imagery includes skulls, religious symbols, and apocalyptical themes like fire and destruction.

Sexual Content: Character designs (specifically Magdala) feature suggestive anatomy and revealing outfits. There are no depictions of sexual acts or explicit nudity.

Sensitive Topics: The narrative utilizes themes of guilt, sin, and sacrifice. Potential players should be aware of the "Self-damage" mechanic, which is presented through a satirical, stylized lens.

Exclusions: The game does not contain depictions of sexual assault, non-consensual sex, or substance abuse.
