Buy Hunt the Pale Gods PC key

Hunt the Pale Gods is a roguelike tactical deck-builder in which you hunt horrific monsters and use their powers against them. Build your deck with powerful cards, loot ancient curios that alter the rules, and find synergies as you make your way through each run. Battles demand careful movement and positioning as you dodge attacks, seize altars and use the terrain.

Shape your deck

After defeating powerful foes, you can choose from extremely rare divine cards. These cards can unlock new synergies and combos, changing how you play each run. The path you choose also determines the next battle and the card rewards on offer.

You can collect more than 250 unique cards and more than 120 curios with game-altering effects. The game includes 11 characters, each with their own mechanics, and more than 40 events with choices that shape your run.

Face the Pale Gods

You encounter five aspects of the Pale Gods, each with its own foes, mechanics and card rewards:

• Primordial: Savagery and blood magic draw on primal strength.
• Progeny: Manipulate time, space and the flow of reality.
• Abyssal: Command sea and stone to strike your enemies.
• Umbral: Lurk in the shadows and become a terror in the void.
• Eye: Face the cult of the Ashen Absolution, its ancient secrets and cleansing flames.

Control the battlefield

Movement and positioning are vital in combat. Dodge enemy attacks, rush in to strike, take powerful altars and turn terrain to your advantage. You can also break enemies' defenses to stagger them, creating an opening to attack or catch your breath; your character can be staggered too, so battles call for planning and control.

Battles and rewards

The route ahead is uncertain, and each path choice sets up the next fight and determines which card rewards you can receive. Across the runs, 13 bosses stand in your way, with unique card rewards for defeating powerful foes.
