Five Blades Deep

Five heroes. Six dungeons. One Demon that won't stay dead.
Five Blades Deep is a deck-building roguelike dungeon crawler. Explore a fresh map every floor, walk into an enemy to start a fight, and take on up to four enemies at once by playing cards from your hand while every enemy acts on its own timer.Features
Build your deck as you go - every hero starts with a small deck of Attacks, Defends and their own abilities. Defeated enemies drop card offers, rarer cards turn up at the higher tiers, and a Heal card is there when a run is running low.

Play your hand - draw three cards, play them out, draw three more. Attacks and Defends come back around, but an ability card is gone once it's played: spend it now or save it for the boss. Don't like your hand? Throw it away, and the fewer cards you waste, the sooner you act again.

Boss rewards - beat a boss to make one card permanent, so it comes back like an Attack instead of being used up, or to cut a card you don't want.

Five classes - the Barbarian, Mage, Rogue, Amazon and Hunter, each with its own starting deck, its own cards to find and its own abilities to use in the dungeon.

ATB battles - every hero and enemy acts on their own timer. Watch the enemies' wind-ups and pick your moment.

Six dungeon themes, one per difficulty tier - the Sewer, the Mountain, the Swamp, the Forest, the prison keep and the Demon Castle, each with its own enemies, rooms and battle backdrops.

Bosses with special moves - the Skeleton King raises the dead, the Yeti King calls in cubs, the Large Red Slime splits, and the Demon, struck down once by strength alone, has come back.

A town between runs - take quests, upgrade weapons, rest at the inn and talk to the townspeople, whose story changes as you win back the Blades.

A hand-animated look - pixel-art heroes and enemies with full battle animations, a card face for every ability, and sound timed to every swing.

Over 100 in-game achievements for every class, boss and tier.
