Dungeon Cards

Hello, everyone! I hope everything is going well.

Potyguara here again from mappe, and today I’m talking about Dungeon Cards in CrafTAE 🃏.

There are currently 9 dungeon cards ⚔️ in the game and they are filled with creatures from the CrafTAE universe, Terra Ænsãhna. Join our Discord if you want to learn more and follow the game’s development progress!

Here’s the link:

TAE Discord

The goal of a run is to defeat the dungeon by facing different kinds of enemies that spawn in waves.

Each dungeon has 3 difficulties: Basic, Advanced, and Expert.
  • Basic has 6 enemy waves;
  • Advanced has 12 enemy waves;
  • Expert also has 12 waves, but with an added dungeon trait to increase the challenge!

👿 More waves mean more enemies—and stronger ones!

If you're curious, check out xThuka’s gameplay where he clears the Goblin Hole on Basic difficulty:

CrafTAE will be participating in the Indie Assemble festival from May 5th to 11th, hosted by Excaliber.

Biome Cards

Hello to all of you! Hope everything is good.

I'm Potyguara, from mappe and I'm here today to talk about biome cards in CrafTAE 🃏.

There are currently 10 biome 🌳 cards in the game. They are:

• Plains
• Forest
• Mountains
• Kalforj
• Suverforj
• Kisilforj
• Libershor
• Nor'Linn Selend
• Willnea
• Orcelia

Each biome corresponds to a region in the CrafTAE universe, called Terra Ænsãhna. Join our discord if you want to know more about it.

Here is the link:

Anyway, there are some basic resources like WOOD, STONE and BERRIES, which dictates the basic gameplay of the game. As you progress through the game, you'll unlock biomes containing unique materials, such as IRON. That will allow you to go further in the game, building iron structures and crafting iron equipment. The same applies to other biome cards. Each one has its own characteristics (resources), as described above.

That means a lot of replayability, given that you have a lot of ways to obtain the same goal, which is to defeat the dungeon, making use of 300+ cards in the game.

If you are curious about it, check out this no commentary gameplay from FullThrough. He played through the tutorial and a basic difficulty run.

The DEMO is free, you should play it!


Have a good game! We'll be back soon.

Cheers!
