A card roguelike on the road east: recruit minions, walk a branching road through the legends of Europe and China, and face the bosses at the end of every land, alone or with up to seven friends.
Description
The road east ends at a tavern with no name, where a hooded Master deals the cards, for a price. In The Long Road you walk that road alone with one life, from a haunted wood through the Carpathian mountains to the jade peaks of the far east. Every stop is a choice: a fight you can scout first, a tavern, a camp fire, a stranger with an offer. Win cards, relics and the Master's favours, and break the bosses of every land, each with its own voice. In multiplayer, up to eight players recruit in the tavern and battle board against board while the bosses of the road wait for everyone at once.
Features
Automatic card battles you plan for, and replays that show every blow.
Five tribes and nearly sixty minions to recruit, more than a hundred creatures of the road to face, heroes with their own powers, and relics.
A branching road through three lands of real folklore: the Hollow Wood, the Carpathian Marches, the Jade Wastes.
Bosses and Elites that speak, sing and change the rules of the fight.
Events with games of their own: archery in the greenwood, cards at a Polish inn, a waltz at a count's castle, a monkey's bowls on a mountain ledge.
Multiplayer for up to 8 with friends, invites, chat, matchmaking and bots; every turn checked against cheating.
