The Royal Writ is a medieval-themed roguelike deck-builder where every unit you deploy marches down the battlefield and, if they fall, are permanently lost. Lead an army of quirky animal-soldiers—ants, lizards, bats, and more—across lanes of war, balancing strategy, risk, and sacrifice to restore order to the kingdom of Aranfold.

Key Features

• Lane-based Deck-Battle Mechanic
  Deploy units across one to three lanes and watch them advance toward enemy gates while avoiding hazards and maximizing damage.

• Card Permanence and Sacrifice
  When a friendly unit reaches the enemy base or gets defeated, it is removed permanently from your deck—every action carries weight.

• Two Distinct Campaigns
  Play through an initial melee-focused campaign, then face a second path enriched with gunpowder, new hazards, and strategic evolution.

• Unique Units with Personality
  Command a cast of characters such as red ants, a drunk frog, a crafty tail-losing lizard, or a goat tactician—each with their own quirks and abilities.

• Events & Roguelike Progression
  Between battles you’ll access relics, gear, and events (like horse races or dentist visits) that add modifiers and flavor to each run.

• Charming Art Style with Dark Humor
  Visually inspired by picture-book classics, the style contrasts adorable visuals with ruthless strategy and permanent loss.

• Replayable and Strategic
  With randomized layouts, hazards, and unit losses, each playthrough demands adaptation, careful planning, and experimentation.
