Waywardens
Waywardens is a tactical roguelite deckbuilder where three heroes—Vanguard, Huntress, and Mage—share a single command deck, hand, and battlefield challenge. Each turn begins with enemies revealing their attack plans, forcing players to strategize every move. The game emphasizes planning over reflexes, as success hinges on crafting the perfect sequence of actions rather than relying on the first viable card. Every card serves dual purposes: it can be played for its intended effect or used as movement, adding depth to decision-making. For example, a Vanguard card might block enemies, a Huntress card could eliminate threats, and a Mage card might provide healing or wards—but only if timed right. The shared deck means heroes can utilize any card, but synergies matter: Vanguard’s strength shines when played by the Mage, while the Huntress benefits from class-specific plays. The goal is to balance immediate needs with long-term board control, making every choice count. Waywardens challenges players to think several steps ahead, turning each.
