Summoners Fate - Tabletop Inspired Roguelike



Introducing Summoners Fate - Tabletop Inspired Roguelike!


Greetings Steam players!

In our Next Fest debut of Summoners Fate, we're bringing the tabletop fantasy world to life with an epic fusion of turn-based tactics and strategic deckbuilding.


Are you ready to hurl squirrels at the Liche King? I mean, how else does one defeat a life stealing undead overlord?

[h2]Summoners Fate Demo[/h2]
We're kicking things off with a killer demo, new and improved for the Next Fest. Here's what to expect:
  • Claim the staff of squirrel hurling, rain firey death upon menacing goblins, and rescue a cosmic tortoise (and that's just the tutorial).
  • Play the first chapter of adventure mode with the Druid where you must dungeon crawl into the chambers of the dreaded Liche King and face his heinous undead horde.
  • Unlock the Battle Mage and return to the dungeons in advanced and hardcore modes with all new tactics and cards to try.
  • NEW for Next Fest on June 13: Demo our progression system and check out all of the 300+ cards and 84 achievements you can unlock in the full game. You'll be able to unlock cards associated with the two playable characters in the demo and your progress will carry over into the full game (available June 20th, right after Next Fest ends).
  • NEW for Next Fest on June 13: Customize your Summoner's starting deck with cards you've unlocked from previous runs.
  • NEW for Next Fest on June 13: Demo Battle mode. Choose from either the Squirrel Hurlers or Hard Knocks All-star teams (once you've unlocked them) and even customize your own deck from the cards and characters you've unlocked through adventures and battle against the AI's teams in gratifying 5-7 minute battles.

[h2]Developer Live Stream Let's Play + Q&A[/h2]
Throughout the Next Fest, we'll also be broadcasting footage of the Early Access build so you can get a peak at the exciting content in store for you at the end of the week when our game launches on June 20th.

We'll also be hosting 2 Live Q&A sessions during our scheduled broadcast times via the chat channel, which you can access here.

The first will start Tuesday 6AM PT / 2PM BST and run 4 hours until 10AM PT / 6PM BST.
Tip: Click the "Set a reminder" option at the top of this page.

Our second Q&A will be announced later during the Next Fest. Wishlist Summoners Fate to receive notifications as soon as these are announced.

We'll also do our best to answer any questions in our broadcast loops throughout the event.
