About the Game

"The Outcasts brought Ash Curse upon us all, and they are the only ones who can lift it." - Ash Master.
Deck of Ashes is an adventure game with tactical card combat. One character at a time, lead the cast of antiheroes on a quest for redemption. Explore the cursed fantasy world and hunt down powerful cards. Put your survival and resource management skills to the test when upgrading your Camp of allies.
The choices that drive your journey - where to go, which resource to collect, which risk to take, and which card to craft - are the difference between success and untimely demise.

Deck-building Done Right
We provide you with the best deck-building tools we could develop. If you are a newbie - we got you covered, as there are sets of cards that obviously work well together.

User reviews
I'm glad I only spent $4.50AUD on this game. It's meh at best, perhaps if it had more polish it might be better, but a lot of the UI feels really rough. There are 3 bosses then a final boss and the strategies to beat it
Loved Slay the Spire. This is a terrible clone. Card synergies are literally sleep inducing. Story is insta-skip after 5 minutes. Level tiers are indistinguishable. Boss mechanics = uninspired. Art is the best part and
Pretty bad, unballanced, unpolished. Like e.g. the game's main gimmick, the ash cards, are unsuable as the final boss is a hard counter for builds that relay on them. All being said though, if you like engine builders,
If you have a controller connected you cannot play the game with mouse and keyboard... 4 year old issue that they said they would fix... Both Ash and resource mechanics are a chore/punish several playstyles, basically
Deck of Ashes has a lot of potential, but since it hasn't been updated since November 2020 I have to assume it never will be again and give my thoughts as this is the absolute final version. PROS: + Interesting
TL;DR Skip. Other games have come out in the genre since this entered Early Access years ago that are far better. Deck of Ashes offers nothing interesting besides a *very* poorly designed mechanic that prevents the game
