Reawake

Reawake is a two player deckbuilding roguelike, heavily emphasizing cooperation with your friend through a unique turn format. Build your characters into synergistic powerhouse characters, to defeat the increasingly difficult enemies. Utilizing proper strategy and tactics with your partner will be the key to victory.

• The core of Reawake is turn based tactical combat, with cards representing the actions your characters may take.
• Gameplay is focused around using two characters in tandem, creating interesting build strategy and tactics that focus on cooperation and synergies between the characters
• Unique turn structure and combo system, challenging the players ability to plan, coordinate, and cooperate
• Fresh take on deckbuilding, earn cards and traits (passive effects)  over time, but freely modify your loadouts before each encounter
• Build your characters over time, gaining new cards and passive effects
• Two classes, with a large number of  cards split across multiple subclasses for each, providing unique playstyles and synergies. 
• DANGEROUS AND GROUCHY HALF-AWAKE GODS!

Do you feel lonely on your deckbuilding travels? Bring a friend! Reawake is a deckbuilding roguelike, designed as a multiplayer game from the ground up. The whole experience is based on cooperation, encouraged both during fights, and outside while building up your characters. Battles require cooperation to defeat the most difficult encounters, and if you don't plan your synergies together, you will quickly find out dangerous newly awoken, grouchy gods can become...

The game features a unique take on targeting and turn structure. Both players have their separate resource pools, decks, hands, and graveyards. Only person is able to actively engage in combat at the time, while being supported by their ally from the backlines. Use the combo system together to string together an intricate attack, ending in a devastating finisher for massive damage!

Note that the game is also playable solo. You can choose to control both characters, or play the solo mode where your missing good friend is replaced by a controlled companion, utilizing the same mechanics but retrofitted for a singleplayer experience

The game is set in Masym, a world that was walked and guided by gods that for reasons unknown fell a slumber, plunging the world into chaos and fragmentation. After millennia the gods appear to finally awaken from their deep slumber, but something is off...

• Reawake is hugely inspired by both widely known and lesser known deck building and strategy games, including Slay the Spire, Roguebook, Darkest Dungeons and more and shares many similarities. However there's also a couple of key differences
• Multiplayer. Reawake is intended as a multiplayer experience where you strategize both in and out of combat with your chosen partner. Play different characters and help each other by creating cross-player synergize and covering each other's weaknesses
• Open ended deck building. While fate does dictate what cards you are offered, your choices are less permanent than other games in the genre. Throughout a run you are free to swap in and out cards whenever you want so you don't feel punished for choosing a card that ***might*** end up useful later on.
• Combo System. Utilize the combo system to your advantage, racking up big damage by combining cards from both players in a true cooperative manner
• Traits. There are no "Power" cards or "Relics", powerful passive effects per run or used in combat. Instead, the players will find and learn traits, passive effects that are always active during a battle. To use traits, you will need to equip cards, so loadouts is a balancing act of cards vs traits. Do you go small, relying on a few specific traits, or do you go for a large, more inconsistent deck but backed by the power of the traits they let you equip?
• Affinities. All cards and traits are part of several affinities, groupings of similar cards generally channeling a certain character archetype. One example is the "Savage" that has access to big strength buffs and cards that deal huge damage in a single strike, or the "Scoundrel" who focuses on striking multiple times and debilitating their enemy.

• 200+ cards split among the two characters
• 30+ unique "Traits", powerful passive effects the characters will earn during a run
• 10+ Ascension levels
• 3 Different modes
• And a ton of unique synergies and combos to discover!

The game is in active development, and has an active alpha test. I would love to have more people try out the game and provide feedback so I can make Reawake the best game it can be! If you are interested in helping out, please feel free to join the discord using the link below, where instructions on how to receive access to the beta will be provided, or download the demo and reach out with your feedback.

Note that the demo currently does not include multiplayer, you will need to join the proper alpha over on the discord to play networked games, since the game currently relies on Steam for multiplayer. It will also not be updated as often as the alpha version.
