GWENT: Rogue Mage plonge les joueurs dans des duels de cartes intenses en un seul round, où le jeune mage Alzur affronte les monstres libérés par la Conjonction des Sphères. Cette extension solo mêle deckbuilding roguelike aux mécaniques stratégiques de cartes de GWENT sur PC. Alzur et sa compagne Lily mènent une quête pour forger une arme vivante face à l'assaut, en lançant des sorts tirés d'un Grimoire grandissant, grâce à de l'énergie régénérée aux Lieux de Pouvoir ou lors des rencontres sur la carte.
La progression permet de débloquer des bonus pour renverser la situation malgré les handicaps initiaux, comme contrer les coups finaux des adversaires. Après des essais préliminaires, les Curses introduisent des défis flexibles pour des runs rejouables. Les fans de stratégie en quête de campagnes roguelike variées et de choix cruciaux en deckbuilding y trouveront un vrai défi taillé sur mesure.
GWENT: Rogue Mage is a single-player expansion to GWENT: The Witcher Card Game combining the best elements of roguelike, deckbuilding, and strategy games with the unique mechanics of GWENT card battles.
Hundreds of years before Geralt and other witchers roamed the Continent, the Conjunction of the Spheres brought endless ranks of monsters into the world. Humanity desperately needed a way to fight back the onslaught to survive.
Follow the journey of a young and ambitious mage, Alzur, and his companion Lily, who embark on a dangerous quest to create a living weapon that will eradicate the monster threat once and for all.
No holding back: Battles last only one round, so players will need to use every trick up their sleeve to help Alzur stave off the onslaught.
New resource — energy: Each turn, Alzur can cast powerful spells from his ever-expanding Grimoire by spending energy. It can be replenished between battles by visiting Places of Power or through random encounters on the map.
Turning the tables: Alzur starts at a disadvantage by not being able to react to the opponents’ final card play. By progressing the campaign and unlocking high-end bonuses, players can take complete control of the battle flow.
Every run is different: Once Alzur completes the first two experiments, Curses become unlocked. These flexible difficulty modifiers ramp up the variety in each run, and provide players with a greater challenge every time.
