Defeat the Dungeon Master in Umblight.
Kristoff Red has revealed Umblight, an upcoming card adventure game inspired by Inscription. The announcement was made during Inscryption's official fourth anniversary broadcast, causing a stir among fans of the dark-themed strategy card game. Along with the announcement, the game's Steam page went live, allowing eager players to add it to their wishlist and prepare for its release.
In Umblight, players find themselves trapped in a mysterious, ever-changing room filled with strange machines. To survive, they must build a deck of shadow and light cards, experimenting with combinations to create powerful synergies that can turn the tide against their dungeon master. The game places an emphasis on strategic placement, with light cards providing protective shields and shadow cards dealing damage to enemy units. Each card has unique skills that trigger under certain conditions, encouraging players to chain effects together for maximum advantage.
Players improve their decks by combining and modifying cards to create ever more powerful tools for battle. They can upgrade a player's card by adding up to three abilities, each of which provide major gameplay advantages but balance them out with corresponding disadvantages. Even coins play a role in the game, as players use them as free support cards during battles or save and trade them for stronger cards in the in-game store.
Each playthrough of Umblight presents a new challenge, including new enemies, rewards, and map interactions. The game encourages creativity by asking players to experiment with combinations, discover what works, and adapt their strategy for future runs. Its fast-paced, combo-based gameplay promises an exciting experience for fans of tactical card games and dark, atmospheric adventures.
Now that the official Steam page is live, Umblight is set to be a must-see game for those looking for a unique strategy card game with endless replayability.
