KEMCO Releases Novel Rogue: A Card Deck-Building Roguelite for Android

KEMCO has launched an exciting new roguelite game on Android called **Novel Rogue**, blending card deck-building with the charm of a fantasy JRPG, all presented in captivating pixel art. This game is steeped in the lore of books (plural), magic, and strategic gameplay, wrapped in intriguing narratives.

In **Novel Rogue**, you step into the shoes of Wright, a young apprentice under the guidance of Yuisil, the Witch of Portals, in the mystical Ancient Library. Your journey takes you through the pages of four magical books, each transporting you to a unique world. From aiding a princess knight in reclaiming her fallen kingdom to unraveling the mysteries of the underworld, your choices shape these worlds, ensuring that no two playthroughs are alike.

What’s the Gameplay of Novel Rogue Like?

The heart of **Novel Rogue** lies in its dynamic turn-based card battle system, which adapts to the narrative of the book you're exploring. Each of the four distinct worlds offers its own deck-building mechanics. As you vanquish foes, you're presented with a choice of three new cards post-battle, allowing you to craft the ultimate deck tailored to your strategy.

The game introduces innovative features like the **Change** command, which enables you to redistribute damage among your allies, adding a layer of tactical depth. **Novel Power** enhances your deck through the use of ink, while the **Deep Record** mode escalates the dungeon's difficulty for those seeking high-stakes challenges.

As you traverse these worlds, you'll collect treasures to gift to characters, fostering relationships that can unlock a special ending. For those who love customization, **Witch Stones** offer the ability to change character costumes, allowing you to dress your characters in your preferred styles.

**Novel Rogue** is available for free on the Google Play Store. A premium version is also offered, which includes 150 bonus Witch Stones and additional benefits like an ad-free experience.
