KEMCO has launched a captivating new roguelite on Android: Novel Rogue, a pixel-art fantasy JRPG blending card deck-building with enchanting storytelling. Prepare for a journey filled with magic, strategy, and intriguing narratives.
You play as Wright, a young apprentice under the tutelage of Yuisil, the Witch of Portals, within the hallowed halls of the Ancient Library. Wright's adventure unfolds as he delves into the pages of four magical books, each transporting him to a unique and richly detailed world.
One book leads you on a quest to aid a princess knight in reclaiming her fallen kingdom; another plunges you into the enigmatic mysteries of the underworld. Your choices shape these worlds, ensuring each playthrough offers a fresh and unpredictable experience.
Novel Rogue: A Glimpse into the Gameplay
At its heart, Novel Rogue features a turn-based card battle system that dynamically adapts to the book you're currently exploring. Each of the four worlds boasts its own distinct deck-building mechanics. Defeat enemies, strategically select three new cards after each battle, and craft the ultimate deck to conquer your foes.
A "Change" command allows for the strategic redistribution of damage among your allies, adding a layer of tactical depth. The "Novel Power" feature empowers your deck through the strategic use of ink, while "Deep Record" mode significantly increases dungeon difficulty for players seeking a truly challenging experience.
As you journey through these fantastical worlds, collect treasures to cultivate relationships with various characters. These bonds unlock special endings, rewarding exploration and strategic interaction. For those who appreciate visual customization, "Witch Stones" allow you to change character costumes, letting you personalize your appearance.
Novel Rogue is available now for free on the Google Play Store. A premium version offers 150 bonus Witch Stones and additional perks, including an ad-free experience.
