Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles Is A Deck-Building Roguelike With A Dicey Twist

Akupara Games, an independent developer/producer, is known for their ambitious forays in multiple genres digital games storytelling, including point-and-click adventures, puzzle RPGs and rhythm brawlers. The company is pairing with Brazil-based developer Little Leo Games to create Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles, a deck-building game with roguelike mechanics and a “dicey” twist. Literally.

Instead of just collecting and mastering conventional decks of cards, you’ll roll six-faced dice to enable a range of abilities. Then you’ll take those skills and attempt to Purify/Corrupt the foes you face. Check out the video trailer for more details.

With over six characters to choose from – each with their own set of playstyles – and deep progression linked to upgrades and classes (you can even create dual-classes), you’ll have your work cut out for you as you climb the ladder to face stronger foes. The 2D art style and unit placement UI remind me of Astria: Ascending’s visuals. Astrea Six-Sided Oracles is a great indie game for deck building games that have a touch of magic whimsy. 

Astrea’s features overview can be read below:

  • Fortify Your AstrariumSelect from hundreds upon hundreds of dice according to your preference.
  • Purify vs. CorruptionYou can use Purification or Corrupt to unlock abilities that help you tip the scales.
  • Pick Your Path With CareYou will be laden with many boons that increase your success chances and fight against enemies who impede you progress. Follow the star system all the way to the Source of Corruption
