Are you tired of traditional games and craving something fresh that combines adventure with skill-building? Dive into Book of Demons, a unique card-based hack-and-slash game where you control the length and style of your quests. Harness the power of your card system to shape your journey and achieve your goals.
Plot
Set in a dark fantasy world inspired by classic hack-and-slash adventures, Book of Demons centers around a towering cathedral in the heart of a troubled town. Beneath its sacred halls lie labyrinthine catacombs teeming with a malevolent force threatening the local populace. As the player, you step into the shoes of a lone hero, tasked with vanquishing this emerging evil.
The game’s settings are rich with traditional dark fantasy elements, featuring a range of foes including phantoms, arachnids, demonic entities, skeletons, zombies, and stone beasts. The town above the catacombs is inhabited by four key characters— a Wise Man, a Fortune Teller, a Tavern Maiden, and a Healer—each of whom contributes valuable rumors and insights to the storyline.
