A Demonic Card-based Roguelite “Soul Shuffler” From the Developers of “Puzzles for Clef” Revealed During Ukrainian Games Festival

Kyiv, Ukraine – August 22, 2024 – Soul Shuffler, a gorgeous 2D hand-drawn card-based roguelite, has emerged from the depths of Hell with an incredibly jazzy trailer.
 

In this game you'll get to become a demon that collects the souls of various inanimate objects and uses them in soul battles against other demons. The plan is simple — win the annual Infernal Tournament and become the ruler of Hell! Develop your domain, venture into various regions of Limbo, and, of course, sign contracts with as many souls as you can!
 

No evil plan succeeds without a proper base to cook it in. Naturally, you'll need to discover a plethora of recipes, gather a ton of resources, combine those through crafting to get stronger... So much work. But why do it yourself when there are plenty of souls just waiting for a benevolent master to manifest and start ordering them around?
 

Embark on a journey through various procedurally generated areas of Limbo to recruit your very own legion of souls to command! Even an aimlessly wandering soul might need some persuasion to sign a contract with a charming demon like yourself, but you've got plenty of tortu... ahem, arguments to win them over, right? And don't forget: the more diverse "tools" you collect, the easier it will be to turn any situation in your favor!
 

It's not enough to simply proclaim yourself a ruler (unfortunately). Only the one who comes out on top of the annual Infernal Tournament will be recognized by other demons as their rightful overlord. Use the arcane knowledge of soul types and abilities to crush your rivals through soul battles, collect the runestones that make your servants ever stronger, and, eventually, you might stand a chance against the acting Infernal Champion herself!
 

"The games we took inspiration from are quite easy to guess for anyone familiar with them," said Alexander Molodkin, Co-founder, Weasel Token. "The card-based part is similar to games like Cultist Simulator, Stacklands, and WitchHand, while the soul collecting part is first and foremost based on Pokémon, which I'm a huge fan of since childhood. We're thrilled to work on such a unique mix and have plenty of intriguing twists to surprise the players with!"
 

Soul Shuffler is set to arrive on PC next year.
