As We Descend is a strategy roguelike deckbuilder where every decision shapes the future. Balance your moves on the apocalyptic battlefield and within the last surviving city of humankind.

Only through strategy and resilience can you safeguard humanity’s fragile hope.

Assemble a formidable force by recruiting unique squads of units using scavenged technology. Each squad offers distinct archetypes with customizable cards that can be added, removed, or upgraded to suit your strategy. Carefully deploy your forces to create a deck capable of tackling each battle encounter. From the city, the last refuge of humanity, you’ll plan your moves, navigating its feudal politics and forming alliances to strengthen your position.

Outsmart powerful foes by mastering tactics and adapting to enemy behavior, utilizing the combat zone system to reposition your forces between defensive and supportive roles. Each descent into the world’s shifting biomes brings fresh trials, new allies, and untold secrets. As a representative of one of the city’s great factions, you hold its future in your hands. Face the chaos of medieval intrigue, uncover the city’s hidden truths, and protect its walls from the encroaching darkness.
