KEMCO has just launched an exciting new roguelite game on Android called Novel Rogue. This card deck-building fantasy JRPG features captivating pixel art and is brimming with books, magic, and strategic gameplay. The narrative is equally compelling, pulling you into a world of fascinating stories.
In Novel Rogue, you step into the shoes of Wright, a young apprentice learning under the tutelage of Yuisil, the Witch of Portals, within the mystical confines of the Ancient Library. Your journey takes you through the pages of four magical books, each transporting you to a unique world. In one book, you'll aid a princess knight in her quest to reclaim a fallen kingdom, while another leads you into the enigmatic underworld. Every choice you make alters these worlds, ensuring that no two playthroughs are the same.
What’s the Gameplay of Novel Rogue Like?
At the heart of Novel Rogue lies a dynamic turn-based card battle system that evolves based on the book you're currently exploring. Each of the four worlds offers its own distinct deck-building mechanics. As you progress, you'll defeat enemies and choose from three new cards post-battle, allowing you to craft the ultimate deck tailored to your strategy.
The game introduces a unique Change command, enabling you to redistribute damage among your allies, adding another layer of tactical depth. Additionally, the Novel Power feature allows you to enhance your deck using ink, while the Deep Record mode ramps up the dungeon difficulty for those seeking high-stakes challenges.
As you delve deeper into the game, you'll gather treasures to gift to characters, strengthening your bonds with them. These relationships can unlock a special ending, adding replay value to the game. For those who love customization, Witch Stones let you switch up character costumes, allowing you to personalize your favorite looks.
Novel Rogue is available for free on the Google Play Store. For those interested in an enhanced experience, a premium version offers 150 bonus Witch Stones and additional benefits like an ad-free gameplay.
