Traditional Roguelikes (Turn Based) / New Roguelike Boardgame (Cursed Castle)

« on: July 18, 2024, 10:38:13 AM »

A bit unusual, but I got a chance to participate in a board game competition in 2021, and my mini roguelike game got an honorary mention. The mechanics were simple - three characters walk through a dungeon which randomly generates enemies very reminiscent of Darkest Dungeon and Slay the Spire. Both players and monsters use the same dice to activate their abilities during combat. I sort of forgot about it until last year, when I was contacted by a publisher with whom I invested about a year in. Some illustrators who were involved in DD were commissioned and their art licensed. Right now I'm very curious how feasible would it be to turn the game into a digital product. I'd love to hear what you think both about the mechanic itself, and it's feasibility.
