Dark Sky

Wolf Prime, a foreign planet home to generations of hard-working miners, is on the brink of total decimation at the cruel hands of a mysterious, unknown force. Lead a crew of unlikely heroes as Squig, a humble shipyard worker, on a daring quest to save his planet from ruin. Brave dangerous arenas and fight for survival in tactical turn-based card battles with six powerful party members. Create a customized deck of cards to complement each character's strengths on the battlefield. Meet complex characters with rich backstories while venturing deep into the unknown to investigate the source of Wolf Prime's destruction.

As Ganymede Games' debut game, Dark Sky is the initial chapter in a much larger narrative universe. Face off with fierce enemies in strategic, party-centric card battles. Create fully customized decks tailored to each of the six playable characters, combine them to inflict debilitating status effects to overpower enemies, and craft and upgrade new cards to unlock powerful abilities like burning lasers and poison darts to breach an enemy's defenses. Traverse colorful hand-painted environments and engage with the various opposing factions on Wolf Prime, such as the Outworld Collective Fleet, the Mining Guild, and the Runshaka death cult, exploring a compelling alien world in a race to uncover the cause of the cataclysm before Squig's planet is torn apart.
