KEMCO has just launched an exciting new roguelite game on Android called **Novel Rogue**. This card deck-building fantasy JRPG, adorned with charming pixel art, immerses players in a world brimming with books, magic, and strategic gameplay. The narrative is equally captivating, drawing players into a series of intriguing stories.
In **Novel Rogue**, you step into the shoes of Wright, a young apprentice under the tutelage of Yuisil, the Witch of Portals, within the mystical confines of the Ancient Library. Wright embarks on an adventure through the pages of four magical books, each transporting him to a unique world. One book might have you aiding a princess knight in reclaiming her fallen kingdom, while another delves into the enigmatic mysteries of the underworld. The choices you make throughout your journey dynamically alter these worlds, ensuring that each playthrough offers a fresh experience.
What’s the Gameplay of Novel Rogue Like?
The heart of **Novel Rogue** lies in its turn-based card battle system, which adapts to the narrative of the book you're currently exploring. Each of the four worlds features a distinct deck-building system. 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 innovative mechanics like the **Change** command, which lets you redistribute damage among your allies, adding a layer of tactical depth. Another feature, **Novel Power**, enables you to enhance your deck using ink, while the **Deep Record** mode ramps up the dungeon difficulty for those seeking high-stakes challenges.
Exploration in **Novel Rogue** isn't just about combat; you'll also collect 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 enjoy customization, **Witch Stones** allow you to change character costumes, letting you personalize your favorite looks.
**Novel Rogue** is available for free on the Google Play Store. For those looking for an enhanced experience, the premium version offers 150 bonus Witch Stones and additional perks, including an ad-free gameplay experience.
