Slice & Dice

Pixel art

You lead five heroes, each with their own unique dice, through 20 levels of monsters, and a single lost fight sends you back to the start. It's a tight tactical dice-based roguelike where planning and luck constantly play off each other.

Rift Wizard

Build variety

In Rift Wizard you assemble your own spellbook from more than a hundred spells and fight through procedurally generated turn-based challenges. Every death sends you back to the start, so each run becomes a fresh tactical puzzle.

Desktop Dungeons: Rewind

Tactical depth

A compact tactical roguelike where every short dungeon run plays like a puzzle: exploration, fights, spells and pacts with gods must be carefully balanced. This remake adds new content and a rewind feature to soften the sting of mistakes.

Rogue Summoner

You summon the monsters you meet and send them to fight for you in turn-based tactical battles. Delving through randomized dungeons, you gradually assemble a powerful roster of creatures.

Into the Breach

Tactical depth

Compact turn-based tactics where three mechs defend cities from giant kaiju-like aliens. Every enemy attack is telegraphed in advance, so each turn plays like a tightly designed chess puzzle with roguelike runs and time-travel resets.

Rack and Slay

Build variety

A turn-based roguelike where you play as a billiard ball, knocking monster balls into holes and traps. Stackable items let you craft powerful synergies across runs.
