We've listened carefully to our player feedback and have overhauled Summoners Fate with an all-new UI and gameplay features to deliver an amazing experience that we hope will become your new favorite go-to game to satisfy your RPG, tabletop and roguelike adventure needs.


During Steam's Going Rogue Festival you can play our new extended demo build featuring both a tutorial mission that will teach you the ropes as well as the first chapter of Adventure mode. This comes to over an hour of gameplay. Plus, you can unlock an additional character and replay the demo to discover new cards and deck synergies. Why not check it out and start hurling some squirrels at the Liche King?





In addition, I'll be hosting a few developer streams so you can check out some of the additional content that's in store for you when we release the game. Over six years of blood, sweat, tears and a lot of love have gone into the making of Summoners Fate, and I can't wait to share our latest update with you.

Our first stream starts tomorrow at 8:00AM -> 12:00PM MT. I'll personally be playing the game and answering any questions you have in our chat channel here on Steam.

I can't say for certain that we may (most definitely will) get to attend a goblin birthday party :)



Hope to see you there!

Cheers,

We're excited to announce that Summoners Fate made it to the NGDC Grand Finals and won the competition to receive their prestigious Game of the Year award.



The Nordic Game Discovery Contest is an exciting, competitive challenge where selected game projects are showcased live in pitch competitions. The grand finals were broadcast during the Nordic Game Expo 2021 on November 5th, 2021. The NGDC selected 12 finalists games from around the world during qualifier events held throughout the year. To make it to the finals, Summoners Fate first had to win the US Qualifier held at Dreamhack Beyond in July 2021. Then, to make it to grand finals, Summoners Fate was selected along with Project Haven and There You Are by the judges from the 12 finalists to compete in a live broadcast at the Nordic Game Expo.

Each team was introduced with a video tour of their game studio. Here's ours:

During the live broadcast, we had to answer rapid-fire questions from the judges in a gameshow like fashion. These included questions about the game's design and our business model. Finally, each of the three teams had to present a final "last chance" material to convince the judges they were worthy of champion. We captured the judges' final votes with a video montage of our players reacting to their experience playing Summoners Fate:

It was an honor to compete with such talented game studios across the globe, and we are proud to take the win!

We're planning to release our game on Steam later this year, and we're looking forward to sharing a new demo with you during the upcoming Steam NextFest that will run February 21st - 28th.

Nature magic can transform the environment and mutate characters into powerful creatures.


Summoners Fate explores existential themes including fate vs. freewill, eternity, and the magic of cosmic motion - a force that drives creation and brings forth being from nonbeing. The five primal magic types in Summoners Fate each represent an emanation of this creative force along a spectrum from the infinite potential of nonbeing to the manifestation of the physical universe.

1. Void
2. Chaos
3. Celestial
4. Arcane
5. Nature

In Part 12 of our Guide to Summoners Fate, we'll begin by examining the fifth primal magic: Nature.

Life grows to reap existential meaning…

From the emptiness of the Void, the innate emanation of the cosmic potential, Chaos, gives rise to infinite possibilities, from which the eventuality of Celestial consciousness can arise to define time and order. To make sense of its existential identify, oneness divides itself, and is separated by division of thought and dimensions of space called the Arcane. Now, from within this physical reality, Nature magic, a flow of evolution and natural selection, life and death, can shape unique experiences to satisfy the existential loop.

Nature represents both an ensuing need for life to grow and the balance of all things.

Nature grows and spreads life quickly. Overrun your opponents with the might of the swarm.

Nature magic is associated with the life energy of plants and animals, evolution and survival of the fittest. Druids, elf mages, and orc shamans alike draw upon nature magic in various ways: sometimes calling upon the earth and vegetation itself and sometimes from their inner life force to augment natural fighting abilities to superior status.

Nature spells in Summoners Fate can heal, restore balance and grow life.

Nature spells include abilities to buff units power and life, mutate and transform beings into other creatures, animate and multiply life and heal and restore balance.
