Echoes of Spellcraft

In Echoes Of Spellcraft, players will explore a fresh approach to spellcasting and card mechanics. Using a "card machine" system, they can craft and combine spells to unleash powerful, real-time magical auto-combat. The game challenges players to navigate intricately designed 2D maps, encounter diverse events, and develop strategic plans to take down waves of enemies and formidable bosses. Each run offers opportunities to discover new spell techniques and deepen the mastery of gameplay mechanics. The true essence of the roguelike experience lies within the unknown of each run, with danger laying hand in glove with reward at every turn. Players must adapt as they chart their paths, discover over 100 spells, and create optimal combinations by upgrading skills and abilities. The game challenges adventurers to push their limits and confront the unknown, all while racing against the clock.

  • 100+ Spells and 50+ Bosses: Explore over 100 unique spells and face off against more than 50 distinct bosses. Combined with 8 hero abilities, the game offers endless deck-building possibilities.
  • Dynamic Real-Time Combat: Break away from traditional turn-based systems with fast-paced, auto-attack, real-time battles that demand quick thinking and precision.
  • Unique Heat and Overload System: Every spell cast raises your heat level, with excessive casting triggering an overload state that temporarily disables spellcasting. This adds an extra layer of strategy to combat decisions.
  • Exploration and Discovery: Encounter treasures, shops, events, and new paths shaped by player choices, ensuring a fresh experience every time.
  • Spell Synthesis and Synergy: Players can combine basic spells to form advanced ones and trigger synergy effects by gathering particular sets of spells, fostering creativity and strategic planning.
