Publisher The Arcade Crew, known for titles like Blazing Chrome and Young Souls, and developer Club Sandwich have announced that Shuffle Tactics, a dark fantasy tactical deckbuilding RPG, will launch on Steam on June 24, 2025. Blending strategic positioning, card-based combat, and roguelite elements, the game reimagines classic warrior archetypes in a cursed medieval world.
The demo introduces the narrative through two biomes: The Deluge, a dilapidated capital outskirts, and The Snarl, a lush forest filled with dangerous creatures. It also highlights a new playable hero, Fletch, a defense-focused character rooted in his peasant origins, who builds structures to shield allies. You can also control the Doberknight, a sword-wielding fighter who repositions enemies with kicks or unlocks fire-spreading abilities for area control.
Combat unfolds on 3D grid-based maps, where elevation and angles are critical, demanding precise positioning. The demo includes one-third of the full game’s cards, charms, and relics, allowing you to craft synergistic strategies. Five sidekicks, each with unique abilities like healing, magic, or archery, join the fight, but you can choose only two per run, making team composition vital.
Four bosses, including two new ones, challenge you with randomized encounters per biomes. The roguelite design, with permadeath and unlockable content, offers high replayability, while medals for fastest runs, lowest damage taken, and highest attack damage appeal to competitive players.
