Description​

Northwind is a monster-hunting roguelite deckbuilder with a tug-of-war combat twist, card crafting, and a mana management system inspired by Magic: The Gathering.
Craft the perfect combo, unlock new outpost services, and battle fiercer monsters as you climb the difficulty ladder.

Features

  • Play as one of two renowned mercenaries, each with a personalized deck of cards. Explore limitless combo possibilities with over 150 cards.
  • Tug-of-War Combat System: When attack becomes the best defense, build up your attack power and overpower foes to strike.
  • Mana Management: Your available mana is determined by your strategy and deckbuilding. As mana doesn’t regenerate automatically—but it can stacks over turns.
  • Level & Equipment System: Set up your build by accumulating mana to level up and equipping powerful gear to enhance your passive abilities.
  • Card Crafting System: Infuse gems, smelt cards, forge duplicates, and merge cards to create stronger versions. Experience the thrill of discovering new combos and crafting the perfect one.
  • Northwind Outpost Services: Unlock new services using Legacy Points. Each upgrade provides fresh strategic options—the more you play, the more your strategy evolves.
  • Hazard Difficulty System: Discover powerful bosses and dangerous monsters as your Hazard Level rises. Face new challenges and adapt to increasing threats in this frozen land.
