Description
Chess of the Hidden Gates fuses roguelike deckbuilding with the footwork of Chinese chess — every card in your hand is a move, and every move decides who gets taken. The world is a board; everything is a piece. Outmaneuver ancient spirits square by square: victory takes more than raw power — it takes position. The battle of Zhuolu never ended; its endgame lies locked behind the Eight Gates, and you are the last player to enter.
- 125 cards across four rarities — each one a move, a kill, or a trap.
- Three classes, three signature systems: Momentum burst, Steadfast defense, Relay artillery.
- 34 beasts, each with a backstory, a temper, and a mechanic of its own.
- Nine Star bosses across three acts, every one rewriting the rules.
- Reshuffled every run: terrain, threats, beasts, and drops — no two runs alike.
