The game’s distinct two-zone combat system splits units between a Guard Zone for frontline defense and a Support Zone that boosts effectiveness through positioning and synergy.
For fans of roguelike deckbuilders, As We Descend offers a content-rich early access experience. It features two distinct Origins, each with exclusive units and mechanics. In total, there are over 390 cards, 12 shared units with origin-based variants, and 6 unique units split between the two Origins.
Players can embark on a full three-depth descent, facing 40 different enemies and 7 powerful bosses across varied expeditions. With its deep mechanics and high replayability, As We Descend is shaping up to be a standout in its genre.
