Tenebrix

Tenebrix is a dark fantasy roguelite about exploring dungeons, building a card deck and developing a camp between descents. Choose one of four classes and fight across a tactical battlefield of three lanes, where positioning matters as much as power.

Explore the dungeon

Procedurally generated floors contain traps, roaming monsters, treasure chests and secret doors. Fear and corruption shape each descent, while difficult choices ask whether to push deeper or return to camp. The fear mechanic affects difficulty and visibility, and the dungeon grows stronger the longer you hesitate.

Build your deck

Assemble cards featuring creatures, sorceries and enchantments. Card discovery and early deckbuilding systems let you develop strategies for the battles ahead. You can forge permanent cards, enchant favorites and salvage others; the card pool and forging systems are planned to expand during development.

Fight across three lanes

Deploy creatures across three lanes, where positioning is central to tactical combat. The four starting classes are Warden, Gravebinder, Penitent and Shade, each with its own developing class identity.

Return to camp

Between descents, upgrade your refuge, purge corruption, buy supplies and prepare for another run. The camp hub has foundational progression systems, with additional structures and progression paths planned. Fallen heroes can return as enemies, carrying echoes of the decks they died with; this feature is planned for a later stage of development.

Procedural generation and evolving systems make runs differ. More enemies, bosses, dungeon events, narrative and worldbuilding, along with visual, animation and audio polish, are also planned.
