Brings what grabs you about Ratropolis: cards and deck-building, runs that differ every time as well as building and crafting.

Instead of controlling the hero, you shape the world around his endless loop with cards for monsters, buildings and terrain while managing his gear between auto-battles. An oddly addictive blend of roguelike, base-building and loot optimization wrapped in grim retro pixel art.
